Multistage compression refers to the compression process completed in more than one stage i e a part of compression occurs in one cylinder and subsequently compressed air is sent to subsequent cylinders for further compression.
Multi stage air compressor animation.
Also appreciate the reasons associated with lubricating oil ignition if the delivery temperature air is too high.
In addition multistage compressors run much longer on cycles than one stage units which cycle on and off.
The simplest compressor designs feature a single cylinder chamber arrangement.
A compressor operating at lower output consumes less electricity.
Understand the design features associated with the multi stage compressors.
Reciprocating piston compressors use a cylinder to force air into a chamber where it is compressed.
