Inter cooling in compressors__________________?

  • (B)  results in saving of power in compressing a given volume to given pressure
  • (C)  is the standard practice for big compressors
  • (D)  enables compression in two stages
  • (E)  prevents compressor jacket running very hot
Standard air is the air at_____________________?

Ratio of compression is the ratio of__________________?
  • (A)  gauge discharge pressure to the gauge intake pressure
