16、the second Part of the metric revision. The revision is published in two Parts, Part 1 “Acceptance tests” and Part2“Simplified acceptance tests for air compressors and exhausters”, and it covers the specifications previously contained in BS726 “Measurement of air flow for compressors and exhausters”
17、 and BS1571, both of which will now be withdrawn. This Part of the standard complies with annex A of Part 1:1987 and specifies the conditions under which an air compressor or exhauster can be tested provided that a compressor or exhauster of the same series has already been type tested in accordance
18、 with Part 1 of this standard. Such tests will generally be necessary to verify guarantees given for one or more of the following particulars: a) capacity; b) shaft input power or specific energy consumption; c) speed. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a
19、contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i and ii, pages1 to 20, aninside back
20、 cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on theinside front cover.BS1571-2:1975 BSI 02-1999 1 1 Scope 1.1 General. This standard specifies acceptance tests for positive displac
21、ement air compressors and exhausters, the absolute intake pressures of which exceed approximately 1mbar 1) . In establishing the scope of this standard a positive displacement compressor is considered as a machine where a static pressure rise is obtained by allowing successive volumes of air to be a
22、spired into and exhausted out of an enclosed space by means of the displacement of a moving member. The standard applies to such machines as reciprocating and rotary compressors. 1.2 Guiding principles 1.2.1 Only those measurements necessary to verify any guarantee given by the manufacturer to the p
23、urchaser shall be taken, together with any other observations called for when placing the contract or as may be subsequently agreed between the purchaser and the manufacturer. 1.2.2 The test conditions shall be as close as is reasonably possible to the guarantee conditions, and deviations from these
24、 shall not exceed the limits specified below: speed 5%, absolute intake pressure 5%, temperature of cooling water 8C, pressure ratio 1%. Where it is not feasible to test a machine within the limitations specified above, special conditions of test or special corrections shall be agreed between the pu
25、rchaser and the manufacturer. 1.2.3 The compressor on test will be deemed to be acceptable provided the results obtained do not differ from the type test results by more than the allowances given inTable 1. The need for simplified tests at other than full capacity shall be the subject of agreement b
26、etween the manufacturer and the purchaser. 2 References The titles of the British Standards referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 3 Definitions For the purposes of this British Standard the following definitions apply. 3.1 total pressure the pressure measured at the stagn
27、ation point when a moving air stream is brought to rest and its kinetic energy is converted by an isentropic compression from the flow condition to the stagnation condition. It is the pressure usually measured by a pitot tube. In a stationary body of air the static and the total pressures are numeri
28、cally equal 3.2 static pressure the pressure measured in such a manner that no effect on measurement is produced by the air velocity 3.3 dynamic (velocity) pressure the total pressure minus the static pressure 3.4 atmospheric pressure the absolute pressure of the atmosphere measured at the test plac

It equals the algebraic sum of atmospheric pressure and gauge pres

This point

NOTE 2The standard inlet point of a portable compressor is a point close to the compressor chosen so that the thermometer is unaffected by the compress

This point varies with compressor design and type of installation NOTE 1The standard discharge point of a stationary compressor is generally at the compressor discharge flange. NOTE 2The sta
33、ndard discharge point of a portable compressor is the outlet valve on the air receiver. 3.10 inlet pressure the average absolute total pressure at the standard inlet point NOTEThe absolute total pressure may be replaced by the absolute static pressure if it can be shown that the effect on the test r
34、esults is insignificant in relation to the accuracy of testing. 3.11 discharge pressure the average absolute total pressure at the standard discharge point NOTEThe absolute total pressure may be replaced by the absolute static pressure if it can be shown that the effect on the test results is insign
35、ificant in relation to the accuracy of testing. 3.12 pressure ratio the ratio of the discharge pressure to the inlet pressure NOTE 1Stage pressure ratio is the pressure ratio for any particular stage in a multistage compressor, the discharge pressure being taken before the intercooler. NOTE 2The ove
36、rall stage pressure ratio is the pressure ratio for any particular stage in a multistage compressor, the discharge pressure being taken after the intercooler (including separators). 3.13 total temperature the temperature that would be measured at the stagnation point if the air stream were brought t

43、mbol shall be used with subscripts added to indicate all values other than the primary one. c) The same symbols shall be used for a given concept regardless of the number of special values which occur. d) Letter subscripts shall be used to denote values under special conditions. e) Numerical subscri

They shall normally be filled with oil; if the temperature is likely to cause evaporation of the oil, mercury shall be used. Where the oblique position o

The thermometers or the pockets shall extend into the pipe a distance of100mm or one third the diameter of the pipe, which ever dimension is the less (seealso9.4.5). 5.1.1.4 In taking readings, the thermometer shall not be lifte

Precautions shall be taken to ensure that: a) no appreciable quantity of heat is transmitted by radiation or conduction to or from the thermometer, other than that of the medium being measured; b) the immediate vi
