Required an air compressor to supply 80 lbs of air per minute at a pressure of 150 psia; temperature of air entering the compressor is 60 F atmospheric. Not counting frictional losses, find: (a) the hp required to operate the compressor if: 1) single stage with n 1.35 . 2) Two-stage with air entering second stage cylinder at 48 psia temperature, 65 F. (b) the temperature of the air going to the receiver in each case.

10. A single stage, single cylinder compressor is rated at 15,000 cfm of free air. The intake air is 14.7 psia and 80 degree F and compresses it to 150 psia. The compression constant c pV , 1.35. a.) Find the hp required to compressed the air. b.) If the over-all efficiency of the prime mover and compressor is 83%, what is the hp of the diesel engine required to drive it? 11. Solve a.) If 35 jack hammer operating at 65 cfm at 85 psia and 90 F are connected at the same time is the compressor big enough? Show by computation the validity of your answer. b.) If the compressor is run two-stage at optimum intercooler pressure with perfect intercooling, what will be the percentage of power saved be?

GIVEN M= 80 lb/min P2= 150 psia T1= 60 F + 460 F = 520 R No friction loss REQUIRED: a) hp 1) single stage n= 1.35 2) 2 stage P3= 48 psia, T3 = 65F+460 = 520 R b) temp going to receiver for 1 and 2 SOLUTION: a.1) at point 1, atmospheric air P1=14.696 psia T1 = 520 R Since V1 = =

= 1048.3427 ft3/min

Where W= ( )

NUMBER 10

GIVEN Single cylinder, single stage V1 = 15000 cfm of free air P1 = 14.7 psia T1 = 80 F+ 460 = 540 R P2 = 150 psia C= PV N= 1.35 REQUIRED: a) hp of compressor b) hp of diesel engine to drive it when eo= 83 % SOLUTION: The work of compression W= ( ) ( )

= =101178972.2 ft-lb/min W = 3066.0295 hp (OK) And since eo= Wm = eo(W) = 0.83 (3066.0295 hp) = 2544.8045 hp (XXXXX)

NOTE: COMPRESSOR OR PUMPS ARE INPUT. TURBINES ARE OUTPUT. CHECK THE RULES FOR EFFICIENCY.

NUMBER 11 (WRONG SOLUTION AND ANSWER)

GIVEN 65 cfm = operating flow rate 85 psia = operating pressure 90 F temp of operation b) two stage compressor REQUIRED: a) is the compressor big enough b) percentage of power saved SOLUTION Let n = 1.4 ,ideal gas V2= 35 cfm V1 = 65 cfm P1= 85 psia T1 = 90 F Solve for P2

P2 =

( ) =(85 psia) (

P2 = 202.2099 psia W= ( )

= =782382.3339 ft-lb/min W= 23.7086 hp

Since Mean effective pressure Pm W = pm Vd Pm = = = 181.1074 < 202.2099 psia therefore the compressor is big enough

GIVEN V4 = 35 cfm V1 = 65 cfm P1 = 85 psia T1 = 90 F+ 460 = 550 R REQUIRED Percentage of power saved based on a) single stage SOLUTION: Since

P4 =

( ) )

P4 = 85 psia( P4 = 202.2099

Then the work done when Wlp = W high pressure (hp) W= ( )

W= = 734011.5646 ft/lb/min W = 22.2428 hp Where Pm = =

= 169.91psia < 202.2099 psia therefore the compressor is big enough = = 0.0618 = 6.18 %

Percentage saved =
