STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor = (Clearance volume/Clearance factor)+Clearance volume
V1 = (Vc/C)+Vc
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor is the volume of refrigerant in compressor before compression.
Clearance volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - The clearance volume is the volume remaining above the piston of an engine when it reaches top dead center.
Clearance factor - Clearance factor is the ratio of clearance volume to the piston displacement volume.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Clearance volume: 0.1 Cubic Meter --> 0.1 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Clearance factor: 6 --> No Conversion Required

11 Volumetric Efficiency of a Reciprocating Compressor Calculators

Volumetric Efficiency in Compressor given Clearance Factor
Go Volumetric Efficiency of Compressor = 1+Clearance factor-(Clearance factor*(Discharge Pressure of Refrigerant/Suction pressure)^(1/Polytropic Index for Compression))
Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor given Clearance Factor
Go Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor = (Clearance volume/Clearance factor)+Clearance volume
Clearance factor
Go Clearance factor = Clearance volume/(Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor-Clearance volume)
Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor given Actual Volume
Go Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor = Actual volume of Refrigerant+Expanded clearance volume
Expanded Clearance Volume given Actual Volume of Compressor
Go Expanded clearance volume = Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor-Actual volume of Refrigerant
Actual volume of refrigerant
Go Actual volume of Refrigerant = Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor-Expanded clearance volume
Actual Volume of Refrigerant given Volumetric Efficiency
Go Actual volume of Refrigerant = Volumetric Efficiency of Compressor*Stroke Volume of Compressor
Stroke Volume of Compressor given Volumetric efficiency
Go Stroke Volume of Compressor = Actual volume of Refrigerant/Volumetric Efficiency of Compressor
Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor given Stroke Volume of Compressor
Go Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor = Stroke Volume of Compressor+Clearance volume
Clearance Volume of Compressor given Stroke Volume
Go Clearance volume = Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor-Stroke Volume of Compressor
Stroke Volume of Compressor
Go Stroke Volume of Compressor = Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor-Clearance volume

Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor given Clearance Factor Formula

Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor = (Clearance volume/Clearance factor)+Clearance volume
V1 = (Vc/C)+Vc

How does clearance volume affect compressor efficiency?

The expansion of the trapped air in the clearance volume causes effective loss of stroke due to which the volumetric efficiency of the compressor drops. Therefore, the clearance volume has a significant effect on the efficiency of the compressor.
