How to calculate air compressor efficiency??
by Cesar Cardenas (Bogota,Colombia) I need to calculate the compressor efficiency. I working as an intern for an Aeronautical company. Bill answers… Hi Cesar. Thank you for visiting my website, and thanks a bunch for writing in. Efficiencies of the compressor will have to do with the efficiency of the electric motor, and how that motor converts energy into compressed air. While I’ve never done a compressor efficiency study, there are folks that do that sort of thing for a living. If you want a start read these pages on the cost of operating your compressor. Hopefully that will help in your calculations.
