RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT:
- To study all components/Accessories used in Rotary Air Compressor.
- To study & determine Actual Work, Pressure after Internal Compression, Volume after Internal Compression, Work Required to Internal Compression, Work Required Increasing the Pressure, Total Work Required, Isentropic Work, Actual Work, Vane Efficiency, Isentropic Efficiency & Free Air Delivery at different delivery pressure.
- To Plot Vane Efficiency/Isentropic Efficiency against Delivery Pressure &comment on the nature of the plot.
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 one limb of U -Tube manometer on panel. Thermocouple T1, T2, T3 reads temperature at inlet ( T1 ) outlet Temperature ( T2 ) & ( T3 ) records temperature of air in receiver. Energy meter 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.
