Which is best Rotary compressor or reciprocating compressor?
Receip or Piston type compressor are used for large duty cycle work (A/c or other equipments), energy hungry but last longer (Heavy Duty). Where as rotary compressor are energy efficient with higher ( Energy Efficiency Ratio) but lower duty cycle and shorter life. Selection of compressor are based on the nature of application. Normally, for room A/Cs with capacity less than 3 ton, most companies offer rotary compressor due to it's EER and less duty cycle. For heavy duty A/Cs, recip or piston compressor best suited.

Which type of compressor uses belts to turn the compressor?
Open drive.
What is compressor turndown?
Turndown: The allowable operating range for the centrifugal compressor between the design point and the surge line at any given speed for a fixed compressor head.
Can you take a horizontal air compressor and use it vertically?
What kind of air compressor is it? And if it is oil lubricated no!
Are the mounting bracket dimensions and location important in automotive compressor application?
critical
Is rotary screw type compressor is mass flow compressor?
It depends on the size and application of the screw. If you are thinking of underhood screw compressor then they are very good compressors for running an air system. but beware of the abuse your engine will take running one of these
What is instrument air?
An instrument air compressor controls the application of air for operating valves in pneumatic instruments.
List any two practical application of an involute?
1. gear teeth profile2. scroll compressor
What are the application of thermal power plant?
Steam turbine could be prime movers where ever requirement of torque as in-put is their. Viz Generator, compressor, blowers, fans, pumps etc
Why could a turbocharger be surging?
Compressor surge is when the air pressure after the compressor is actually higher than what the compressor itself can physically maintain. This condition causes the airflow in the compressor wheel to back up, build pressure, and sometimes stall. Common conditions that result in compressor surge on turbocharger gasoline engines are: * A compressor bypass valve is not integrated into the intake plumbing between the compressor outlet and throttle body * The outlet plumbing for the bypass valve is too small or restrictive * The turbo is too big for the application
Can you instalL a window ac unit on its side?
NO! the compressor has oil in the crankcase similar to a car. The compressor relies on among other things gravity to return the oil back. There are window shakers out there that will fit your application, just not this one.
What formula is used to determine the power consumed by a compressor's crankcase heater?
The formula used to determine the power consumed by a compressor's crankcase heater is the overall volume times the amount of heat generated. This allows a person to purchase the appropriate heater for their application.
If you have a bad compressor does that mean you need a new contactor?
Not always. But if a compressor goes bad it can take out the contactor. I have replaced compressors before and found the contactor is still ok. In a commercial application Copeland will not honor the warranty if the contactor is not replaced at the same time a new compressor is installed. Not sure about residential but for a $15 contactor I would not gamble with it.
where to find power converters for my laptop and my small compressor?
A 220 volt to 110 volt power converter suitable for this application is available through Amazon.com
Why does discharge flow rate not take into account the fluid recycled to the compressor through the bypass system?
We need a compressor to supply volume at pressure. When we are not using all the volume the compressor is supplying, the overpressure valve, the bypass valve, opens and fluid is recycled to the compressor. This is common in things like the pressure washers that are so often seen on car lots. Usually, we are only interested in what a compressor can or is delivering to do work. What volume at what pressure? We need to know the maximum capability of the compressor at its rated pressure, and that will be delivered with a zero bypass. When we are using only a portion of the capacity of the compressor, we just need to know the flow rate for the application (and the pressure it is being delivered at). We don't care about how much fluid is returned to the compressor by the bypass system. We need the rated pressure of the compressor, and the unit will go all out to maintain that. And when it is running at rated pressure and the flow is low, most of the fluid will be returned through the bypass. That part of the compressor's operation could be looked at as "wasted energy" by someone, but if the application has times when the compressor is running flat out with no bypassed fluid, the "waste" part of the cycle has been factored into costs, but cannot be "changed" because, though we might be using low flows at times, we need all the compressor can produce at others.
