A single stage reciprocating air compressor has a compression ratio of 5.5, clearance volume of 8% and a cylinder length of 80mm with a diameter of 25mm. Assuming an inlet air pressure of 101 kN/m at 40°C, a volumetric efficiency of 83% and a compression index of 1.3. Determine: i) The swept volume Vs of the compressor if the rom is 600 [3] ii) The clearance Vo, inlet V1 & induced volume Vind in MP/s [4] iii) The power required, given a mechanical efficiency of 81% [3] iv) The temperature of the air after compression [2] V) Discuss ways to improve the efficiency of a compressor [4] You may use the following information: DLN Vs V. = V1-V3 & Vind = V1-VA 4(60) VA = V3 W = (-1) P2 Vind (1 - -**-) n-1 71
