packing and cylinder lubrication for reciprocating compressors
packing and cylinder lubrication for reciprocating compressors
(OP)
I would to know which is the criteria for providing more or less amount of lubrication in a cylinder and the packings of a reciprocating compressor.
Is ther any relationship with the cyinder diameter or working pressure?
any help will be appreciated.
thanks
Marc

RE: packing and cylinder lubrication for reciprocating compressors
Amount also depends on the other things - as working pressure is initially determined, dimensions of supply assembly impose demands on oil pump perfomance (i.e. pump must handle pressure/flow combination that is necessary to have proper oil circulation).
