Nov 13, 2000 #2 jonralph Petroleum Apr 4, 2000 45 Yes, it's possible. In the simplest terms One vessel volume will raise the pressure by one Barg (14.7 psig) so if you know the volume and the inlet flow it's a simple calc. There are other factors just depends how accurate you want to be. Upvote 0 Downvote

Nov 29, 2000 #3 kmuhsen Mechanical Mar 15, 2000 22 from ideal gase equation ( if applicable depending on the pressure) P-final x v-final = m RT v : specific volume could be calculated. by calculating the vessel size you can get the total mass ( M) of air charged into the vessel. Assuming steady flow conditions Time = M / ( rate of flow) Bye Khaled Upvote 0 Downvote
