RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT:
- To study all components/Accessories used in Reciprocating Air Compressor.
- To study & determine Isothermal Work, Isentropic Work, Actual Work Volumetric Efficiency, Isothermal Efficiency, Isentropic Efficiency & Free Air Delivery at different delivery pressure on computer.
- To Plot Volumetric Efficiency/Isothermal Efficiency Isentropic Efficiency against Delivery Pressure & comment on the nature of the plot on computer.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION :
The test rig consists of Air Compressor with an air suction tank, is fitted with an orifice at one end & other end connected to cylinder. The orifice pressure tapping is connected to differential pressure transmitter on panel. Temperature transmitter T1, T2, T3 ,T4 , T5reads temperature at inlet ( T1 ) outlet Temperature from 1st cylinder ( T2 ) & after intercooler temperature ( T3 ) , after 2nd cylinder ( T4 ) and Tank Temperature ( T5 ) records temperature of air. Energy Transmitter is used to record the power input to motor & in turn the work required for compression. The control panel houses starter for motor, main switch, Temperature Indicator. A pressure and angle sensor provided for plotting PV Plot on computer. Suitable scada software provided for analysis.
