BREAKDOWN OF TMAs
OHMP - 1 - TMA Tutor Marked Assignment (1,2): This first TMA consists of 5 main questions with several parts of questions within each question covering all the themes of section 1 - Compressors and Compressor Systems.Sample - Question 1
(a) Sketch a p - V diagram showing the following types of compression for a given mass of gas:
(i) adiabatic
(ii) isothermal
(iii) polytropic
(b) State which type of compression is the ideal for a gas compressor and explain why this cannot be achieved in practice.
Sample - Question 4
(a) With reference to a two-stage compressor explain what is meant by "an intercooler" and give three reasons for its use.
Explain, briefly, two methods of achieving intercooling.
(b) Sketch the associated two-stage p - V diagram with complete intercooling and compare it with the ideal theoretical p - V compression curve.
