Single Stage Air Compressor Test Rig.
Single Stage Air Compressor Test Rig
Single Stage Air Compressor Test Rig consists of a single stage
reciprocating type air compressor driven by 1 HP motor through a belt.
The outlet of the air compressor isconnected to reservoir (Tank) and
suction is connected to another air tank with an orifice plate and a
water manometer. Bellow is fitted on one side of this air tank to
regulate the flow. Temperature of inlet and outlet of air and pressure
at outlet can be measured by Temperature sensor and pressure gauge.
EXPERIMENTATION:
To calculate the volumetric efficiency.
To calculate isothermal HP.
To calculate compression ratio.
