Compressors, Gas Turbines and Jet Engines For a two stage reciprocating compressor, compression from p₁ to p₃ is with perfect intercooling and no pressure losses. If compression in both the cylinders follows the same polytropic process and the atmospheric pressure is pa, then the intermediate pressure p₂ is given by p₂ = (p₁ + p₃)/2 P₂ = Pa × p₃/p₁ p₂ = p₁. p₃ p₂ = Pa p₃/p₁ p₂ = (p₁ + p₃)/2 P₂ = Pa × p₃/p₁ p₂ = p₁. p₃ p₂ = Pa p₃/p₁ ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Compressors, Gas Turbines and Jet Engines If p₁ is the pressure of air entering the L.P, cylinder and p₃ is the pressure of air leaving the H.P. cylinder, then the ratio of cylinder diameters for a single acting, two stage reciprocating compressor with complete intercooling is given by D₁/D₂ = (p₁ p₃)1/4 D₁/D₂ = (p₁/p₃)1/4 D₁/D₂ = (p₃/p₁)1/4 D₁/D₂ = (p₁ p₃)1/2 D₁/D₂ = (p₁ p₃)1/4 D₁/D₂ = (p₁/p₃)1/4 D₁/D₂ = (p₃/p₁)1/4 D₁/D₂ = (p₁ p₃)1/2 ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
