The development of condensate during compression

Calculation step 1: Quantity of water taken into the compressor




0,00 [l/h]

Calculation step 2: Condensate arising downstream from the compressor

0,00 [l/h]
0,00 [l/h]

Calculation step 3: Condensate arising downstream from refrigerant dryer

0,00 [l/h]
0,00 [l/h]


Calculation step 4: Total condensate precipitation

0,00 [l/h]

Remarks:

  1. After compression air is 100% saturated
  2. Pressure at installation location 1.01325 bar (atmospheric pressure)
  3. The maximum humidity of the temperature at the installation location fmax TU [g/m³] is taken from a stored table
  4. The maximum humidity of the temperature downstream from the compressor outlet fmax TA [g/m³] is taken from a stored table
  5. The maximum humidity of the temperature downstream from the refrigerant dryer fmax T3 [g/m³] is taken from a stored table

Did you know that in a single day shift (8h at full capacity):

  • at a volumetric flow rate of 1000 m³/h,
  • a final compression pressure of 10 bar (ü) and
  • an air humidity of 60% (at an ambient temperature
    of 30°C) a total of approx. 140 litres of
    condensate     arises?
