For your information
FAD means Free Air Delivery that is the amount of atmospheric Air (free air) that can be sucked by the compressor at inlet conditions (suction side)
at these reference conditions:
1 atm (atmospheric pressure)
20°C/15°C (atmospheric temperature)
0% (R.U.)
the motor RPM at...
"Are these watercooled and is the hot water cooled somewhere else, outside the room?"
the water pipes both inlet and outlet (hot water) incoming the compressor from outside the room. But I don't know any kind of traitment expected to it
"Can't you just put the compressor outside, maybe under...
@ZESTI
thanks for the answer. I speak with the compressor supplier and he say that the 95% of energy supplied to the electrical motor of the machine is lost by heat load.
About "intercooler and aftercooler", they work in for the compression process and they are covered plate heat exchanger.

Maybe take a different approach and calculate the theoretical power required to compress the air assuming 100% efficiency. The difference between this and the actual input power needs to go somewhere and most would be emitted as heat in the plant...
Hi men, i'm italian and i'm new on this forum.
I must make a technical report for a cooling system for conditioning a room where work 3 centrifugal compressor (oil free with removable slide-in-and-out intercooler and aftercooler) and 2 dryers with this technical specifications:
Compressor...
