Suction Volume given Compression Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Suction Volume = Compression Ratio*Discharge Volume
V_s = r*V₂
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Suction Volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Suction Volume is the volume of refrigerant sucked by the compressor during its suction stroke.
Compression Ratio - Compression Ratio is the ratio of the absolute stage discharge pressure to the absolute stage suction pressure.
Discharge Volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Discharge Volume is the volume of the refrigerant after compression or at the discharge.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Compression Ratio: 4.75 --> No Conversion Required
Discharge Volume: 4.210526 Cubic Meter --> 4.210526 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V_s = r*V₂ --> 4.75*4.210526

Evaluating ... ...

V_s = 19.9999985

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

19.9999985 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

19.9999985 ≈ 20 Cubic Meter <-- Suction Volume

What is reciprocating compressor?

The compressors in which the vapour refrigerant is compressed by the reciprocating (i.e. back and forth) motion of the piston are called reciprocating compressors. These compressors are used for refrigerants which have comparatively low volume per kg and a large differential pressure, such as ammonia (R-717), R-12, R-22, and methyl chloride (R-40).

How to Calculate Suction Volume given Compression Ratio?

Suction Volume given Compression Ratio calculator uses Suction Volume = Compression Ratio*Discharge Volume to calculate the Suction Volume, Suction Volume given Compression Ratio formula is defined as a measure of the volume of air drawn into a compressor's cylinder during the suction stroke, which is directly proportional to the compression ratio and the volume of air available for compression. Suction Volume is denoted by V_s symbol.

How to calculate Suction Volume given Compression Ratio using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Suction Volume given Compression Ratio, enter Compression Ratio (r) & Discharge Volume (V₂) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Suction Volume given Compression Ratio calculation can be explained with given input values -> 7.6 = 4.75*4.210526.

FAQ

What is Suction Volume given Compression Ratio?
