Single Stage Air Compressor Test Rig - Application: Fluid Mechanics Lab Equipment

Specification:
SINGLE STAGE AIR COMPRESSOR TEST RIG
Product Description
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 is connected 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:
Tachometer to measure RPM
