    Re: how do i calculate actual mass flow through a compressor without flowmeters?

    Scubasteve:
    My curiosity has the best of me.
    I learned on 2 Cylinder VSA Ammonia Compressors.
    The biggest I have personally worked on was a 14 X 10 inch X 4 Cyl Kohlenberger.
    I have never heard of Clark.
    The part about 4 cylinders, every other revolution I am not too clear on.
    Perhaps you could give us a little history on the machines and their Manufacture, as well as explain the every other revolution part.

    Was hoping someone would reply to this. I really am interested.

    Had no idea reciprocating machines were built this big.
    Very interesting stuff applied to an NH3 system.
    Appreciate it Ranger.
