  2. Reciprocating compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocating_compressor

    A reciprocating compressor or piston compressor is a positive-displacement compressor that uses pistons driven by a crankshaft to deliver gases at high pressure. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Pressures of up to 5,000 psig are commonly produced by multistage reciprocating compressors.

  3. Air compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_compressor

    Air compressor supplies air into a nail gun.. An air compressor is a machine that takes ambient air from the surroundings and discharges it at a higher pressure. It is an application of a gas compressor and a pneumatic device that converts mechanical power (from an electric motor, diesel or gasoline engine, etc.) into potential energy stored in compressed air, which has many uses.

  5. Gas turbine engine compressors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_turbine_engine_compressors

    In the axial compressor the air flows parallel to the axis of rotation. Axial compressors are made to be multi-staged. A stage consists of a row of rotating blades called the rotor, which are connected to the central shaft and a row of stationary or fixed blades called stator. In axial flow compressor, the air flows from stage to stage.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_air-cooled_engine

    The Volkswagen air-cooled engine is an air-cooled, gasoline-fuelled, boxer engine with four horizontally opposed cast-iron cylinders, cast aluminum alloy cylinder heads and pistons, magnesium-alloy crankcase, and forged steel crankshaft and connecting rods. There are two distinct families/variations of the aircooled engine namely Type 1 and Type 4.

    The nickname pancake engine has been applied to several types of internal combustion engine, including: Avro Canada VZ-9 Avrocar jet engine; Detroit Diesel Series 71 (horizontal version) Electro-Motive Diesel#EMD 'pancake' diesels 16-184 and 16-338 engines; Nordberg Manufacturing Company radial diesel engine; Volkswagen air-cooled engine

  8. Compression ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_ratio

    In piston engines, static compression ratio is determined using the cylinder volume when the piston is at the top and bottom of its travel. The compression ratio is the ratio between the maximum and minimum volume during the compression stage of the power cycle in a piston or Wankel engine.

  9. Turboexpander - Wikipedia

    A schematic diagram of a demethanizer extracting hydrocarbon liquids from natural gas. Raw natural gas consists primarily of methane (CH 4), the shortest and lightest hydrocarbon molecule, along with various amounts of heavier hydrocarbon gases such as ethane (C 2 H 6), propane (C 3 H 8), normal butane (n-C 4 H 10), isobutane (i-C 4 H 10), pentanes and even higher-molecular-mass hydrocarbons.
