Exercise : Compressors, Gas Dynamics and Gas Turbines - Section 2
1.
If p1 is the pressure of air entering the L.P, cylinder and p3 is the pressure of air leaving the H.P. cylinder, then the ratio of cylinder diameters for a single acting, two stage reciprocating compressor with complete intercooling is given by
D1/D2 = (p1p3)1/2
D1/D2 = (p1/p3)1/4
D1/D2 = (p1p3)1/4
D1/D2 = (p3/p1)1/4
