Multi Stage Air Compressor Animation

The simplest compressor designs feature a single cylinder chamber arrangement.

While straightforward this setup is limited in its efficiency and capacity for delivering high volumes of pressurized air. Understand the design features associated with the multi stage compressors. Reciprocating compressor diagram parts working multi stage compressor. Multistage compression refers to the compression process completed in more than one stage i e a part of compression occurs in one cylinder and subsequently compressed air is sent to subsequent cylinders for further compression.

In addition multistage compressors run much longer on cycles than one stage units which cycle on and off. Also appreciate the reasons associated with lubricating oil ignition if the delivery temperature air is too high.
