tions (or 3 strokes per sec.) this will give about 60 H. P. Air Pipes. — If the volume of compressor stroke is previously known the max. velocity in air pipe of known area can be found by observing that im- mediately after switching the whole volume of compressor - stroke goes through the air… … Fig. 2. down to 76.5, which will require 47 strokes. (See A to B' and A to B".) When air is switched out at V we will have V -f R + a' at 102", while only 91" is necessary to force water out of V". Hence water will dis- charge without further action of compressor until all pressures drop to 91".…
