If you reduce the piping size does air pressure increase?

Assuming you mean using smaller piping in a compressed air system-- answer is no, the air pressure does not increase. In fact, the air pressure measured at the end of the line will be lower due to increased pressure drop in the smaller lines from the compressor. The air velocity in the pipes will be higher because of the reduced inside area of the lines, but the actual pressure will be lower at the exit. An air tool at the end of the line would be less powerful.


Differences between centrifugal compressors and centrifugal pump?

centrifugal pump uses centrifugal action while reciprocati pump operates on resiprocating motion of pistonA centrifugal pump will typically give you a higher flow rate but a lower pressure, where a piston pump will give you more pressure but a lower flow rate.


What is wrong with a compressor that will only air up to 60 psi and not shut off?

I had the same problem but the compressor would shut down from over heating. It turned out to be the pressure relief valve leaking. Listen for leaks. I ordered a new valve but never installed it because it turned out that mine was just stuck. Once I freed it, it has worked fine since. Also : The compressor is not shutting off because it is not reaching the shut off pressure. Check for air leaks. If it will not develope more than 60 psi, it may be worn out.


What would the head pressure do if the fan motor on an air-cooled condenser stopped working?

The head pressure and compressor current would normally rise (strong winds and/or rain and/or very low air temperatures will reduce this effect). Less heat would be removed from the refrigerant and therefore deliver less cooling.


What is the centrifugal force on a turbine blade if a London bus is hanging from the blade?

A ball park figure for the weight of a double decker bus might be about 15,000 kilograms. But to calculate the centrifugal force on a turbine blade with this hanging from it would require the blade length and the rotational speed of the turbine.

Does speed of sound through air increase when it hits water?

No why would the speed of sound will stay the same


Why is it rpm goes down everytime aircon is turn on?

Short Answer: Because it takes power from the engine to operate the A/C compressor. More detailed answer: Under a given load, an engine will operate at a given speed when a certain amount of fuel is provided. If you don't increase the fuel, but you increase the load (by turning on the A/C compressor), something has to give, and the engine operates a bit more slowly. Therefore, you would have to press on the gas just a tiny bit more to get the engine to operate at the same speed, which necessarily means you're using a bit more fuel.


What happens to the wavelength when the speed is increased and frequency stays the same?

The wavelength would increase in direct proportion to the speed.


As the speed and length of a wave decrease the wave?

An equation that relates three basic quantities for waves in general is:speed = wavelength x frequency In this case, if you increase the speed (without changing the wavelength), the frequency would have to increase; on the other hand, if you increase the wavelength (without changing the speed), the frequency would go decrease.
