Single Stage Air Compressor Test Rig

Single Stage Air Compressor Test Rig Single Stage Air Compressor Test Rig consists of a single stage reciprocating type air compressor driven by 1 HP motor through a belt. The outlet of the air compressor isconnected to reservoir (Tank) and suction is connected to another air tank with an orifice plate and a water manometer. Bellow is fitted on one side of this air tank to regulate the flow. Temperature of inlet and outlet of air and pressure at outlet can be measured by Temperature sensor and pressure gauge.  EXPERIMENTATION:    To calculate the volumetric efficiency.   To calculate isothermal HP.   To calculate compression ratio.   UTILITIES REQUIRED :    Electricity 2 kW, 220V AC, Single Phase.   Floor Area 1.5 x 0.75 m.   Tachometer to measure RPM  TECHNICAL DETAILS :   Compressor                   :                     Single Stage, Capacity 4 CFM (max.)   Drive                              :                      1 HP Crompton make motor   Manifold Tank                :                      Suitable Capacity   Flow Measurement        :                      Orificemeter with Manometer   Temp.
