The pressure when the compressor works is calculated by the lost pressure that occurs in the pipe. While the equation, both can produce 7 (Seven) BAR pressure to control air. When the ship stops, the compressor pressure is below the compressor capacity.
For those of you who are engineers, contractors who work every day in a heavy equipment environment, of course you will continue to use compressors as pneumatic machines that have many functions in various industries.
A compressor is a thermodynamic device, which serves to increase the pressure of a gas. In Physical Science, it refers to the Law of Thermodynamics which states that an external source of prime mover, electric motor, or internal combustion engine must act on the gas for this compression.
The role of a compressor is also to avoid losses due to friction, radiation, cooling the fluid used to cool the compressor, for gas distribution at high pressure.
Effects when a ship is deprived of compressed air while sailing
Compressor is one of the pneumatic equipment that can be used in various industries. The existence of a compressor will always be the most important requirement in most jobs. A ship will not be separated from the use of compressors, because a compressor has an important role as a producer of compressed air. This compressed air will be used to start the main engine, including to control the main engine.
The resulting effect of this lack of air pressure is the failure of the starting system on the main engine. So it is necessary to analyze the compressor as a producer of compressed air to determine the cause of this problem. the most influential component in producing compressed air is the lp / hp valve.
Air compressors on ships are one of the machines to help various needs and activities on the ship. For example to turn on the ship's MI, or help with work that uses compressed air. This air compressor will produce pressurized air by absorbing and compressing air. After that, the air will be stored in the air tank to be distributed to users. (pneumatic system).
