Energy, Exergy, and Emission Analysis on Industrial Air Compressors

Abstract Air compressors, a key fluid power technology, play an essential role in industrial plants and office buildings, hospitals, other types of facilities. The efficient use the air compressor is crucial. By controlling unnecessary inefficiencies, high energy consumption can be reduced. This study aims to provide exergy analysis on compressors for different industries. Detailed case studies were also analyzed. focuses analyses compressed system foundry results indicate that applying six improvement recommendations yields significant amounts cost savings improvements system's overall performance. payback periods are economically feasible worthwhile use. suggested methods with low period.
