3. COMPRESSED AIR SYSTEM45Bureau of Energy EfficiencySyllabus COMPRESSED air SYSTEM :Types of air compressors, Compressor efficiency, Efficient com-pressor operation, COMPRESSED air SYSTEM components, Capacity assessment, Leakage test,Factors affecting the performance and IntroductionAir compressors account for significant amount of electricity used in Indian industries. Air com-pressors are used in a variety of industries to supply process requirements, to operate pneumatictools and equipment, and to meet instrumentation needs. Only 10 30% of energy reaches the pointof end-use, and balance 70 90% of energy of the power of the prime mover being converted tounusable heat energy and to a lesser extent lost in form of friction, misuse and Compressor TypesCompressors are broadly classified as: Positive displacement compressor and displacement compressors increase the pressure of the gas by reducing the vol-ume. Positive displacement compressors are further classified as reciprocating and rotarycompressors.
