    Make-up air for air compressor

    Nick, are you using P1V1/nRT1 = P2V2/nRT2 ? If T1 = T2, then P1V1=P2V2. But for the air compressor, isn't T1<>T2 ?

    Make-up air for air compressor

    Hi all, I have an air compressor (7.5 HP, 16.8 acfm @ 175 psi) in a confined space. I was thinking of putting a small louver in the exterior wall for make-up air. How big should my louver be? Or what is the required free area? Thanks.
