The answer to this question should be 10 bar.

Kashinath N.A. said:   9 years ago
Answer should be 100 atm.

Type values of maximum delivery pressures generally available from different type of compressor are,

(i) Single stage Compressor, for delivery pressure up to 5 bar.
(ii) Two stage Compressor, for delivery pressure between 5 to 35 bar.
(iii) Three stage Compressor, for delivery pressure between 35 to 85 bar.
(iv) Four stage compressor, for delivery pressure more than 85 bar.

(1 atmosphere = 1.01325 bar).

Yes, 100 atm correct.

Maariyamma said:   8 years ago
100 atm is the correct answer.

How can you say that 100 Atm correct? In my plant hydrogen gas compressed at 155 kg/cm^2 pressure.

I think 1000 Atm is correct.

But in this question, it is not asked which type of compressor is used like a centrifuge or reciprocating type and centrifuge type 100 kgf/cm^2valid but reciprocating is valid for 1000 kgf/cm^2.

1000 is the Right answer because it compresses up to 200 kg presser through the compressor.

1000 atm is the right answer and in kg/cm2 it is 1033.23.
