Compressor overhaul optimization
Compressor overhaul optimization
(OP)
I was assigned to find the optimum point to overhaul the compressor. First, I tried to find the polytropic efficiency tendency in MS Excel but it show such a linear line parrarel with x-axis (hour of operation). Does anyone have an idea what parameter should I consider instead of efficiency.





RE: Compressor overhaul optimization
oil analysis, compression/leak down test(reciprocating compressor), historical valve life (reciprocating compressor), manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule, cost to replace if run-to-failure.
