I suppose you're right.
Now that I am reasoning it out to myself I suppose the compressor will shut off, or dump the flow and run unloaded, once the pressure set-point is reached. Then turn back on once the receivers and line pressure falls below the the Cut-In pressure.
Thank you for your...
MFJewell,
I am looking for an analysis method to estimate compressor performance based on operating parameters that are different then what's driving the CAGI data sheet.
Example
The CAGI data sheet says a certain compressor is rated at 495 acfm at 100psig with a 89kW input and 0.941 eff...
I have a client who is wanting a high-level economic analysis done on retrofitting their air compressor.
The CAGI data sheets show a BHP rating for the compressor, along with the max operating pressure and rated full load acfm.
My question is how to model performance and energy consumption...
