How to calculate the displacement of a natural gas reciprocating compressor?

2016-04-12View Original

Thread Content

Intake pressure (MPa) * 10 * cylinder volume * 60 * 0.8 = compressor displacement/h. I recently came up with this formula; it has been used to calculate the displacement of several compressors, and it seems to be quite accurate. Could someone help explain this formula? What does 0.8 mean – it refers to 80%, but what does 60 mean?

I see, it’s time. Thank you

The rotation speed isn’t even shown, right?

It’s an estimate, so accuracy will surely not be perfect, but the difference compared to calculations based on actual operating conditions is not very large. A quick calculation formula
