Hi All

I'm not sure if this is the best forum to post this question , does any body knows a site on the internet that explains how to size an air compressor, air receiver for surge vessels

Thanks

This thread surfaces up time and again in various forums. A simple key word search could have given you plenty of links here.

For air receiver sizing, here is a link.

Compressor sizing depends upon your loading pattern and your receiver size. You can find good discussion at this thread (particulary TD2K's analysis is worth a reading and you will say peanuts, with air compressor sizing, later:))

Believe it or not : Eratosthenes, a 3rd century BC true philologist, calculated circumference of earth with the help of a stick and it's shadow. The error was just 4% to the present day calcuated value.
