Air demand & compressor screening
Separate average, sustained and peak demand; prepare a traceable specification.
Advanced options: project and local files
New projects stay in memory until you choose Save or Export. Local saving is not a cloud account. Contacts are excluded from saved project files.
Calculations run on this device. A result is a preliminary estimate, not engineering approval. No documented model operating points have been imported yet.
Required data & method sources
Growth applies to the entered process demand. Already included leaks and purge are never added twice. Equipment duty affects average only; simultaneous active units determine the scenario peak. No kW or model is guessed.
- Measured demand or equipment count, simultaneous use and sourced per-unit flow
- One explicit flow basis, average/peak distinction and already-included uses
- Selected growth, losses, use-point pressure and optional control allowance
- Air quality, electrical/site requirements and documented model data for candidate screening
Method references only; not manufacturer performance data or engineering approval.
