Compressors, Gas Turbines and Jet Engines The overall isothermal efficiency of the compressor is defined as the ratio of Isothermal power to the shaft power or B.P. of the motor or engine required to drive the compressor Work required to compress the air isothermally to the actual work required to compress the air for the same pressure ratio Volume of free air delivery per stroke to the swept volume of the piston Isentropic power to the power required to drive the compressor Isothermal power to the shaft power or B.P. of the motor or engine required to drive the compressor Work required to compress the air isothermally to the actual work required to compress the air for the same pressure ratio Volume of free air delivery per stroke to the swept volume of the piston Isentropic power to the power required to drive the compressor ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
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 = Pa p₃/p₁ p₂ = p₁. p₃ p₂ = (p₁ + p₃)/2 P₂ = Pa × p₃/p₁ p₂ = Pa p₃/p₁ p₂ = p₁. p₃ ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
