Design of Piston Compressor Coolers

Abstract

The Diploma thesis is deals with Design of coolers for three stage piston compressor. The first part of the thesis is deals with compressor and its types, piston compressor, its components and working principle. The following chapter deals with coolers, types of coolers and measurement of flow parameters. In the practical part a new concept of design is obtained and designed using solid works v5 software and successive calculation for dimensions of the cooler for selected piston compressor is calculated. On the basis of verification with the thesis supervisor the design of cooler is further done. The newly designed cooler is documented in the enclosure of this diploma thesis.
