Air receiver sizing
Air demand + time + pressure drop → minimum receiver volume (V=Q·t·Patm/ΔP).
How to use
- Enter the calculation conditions
Enter the dimensions, loads, speeds or operating conditions requested by the form.
- Run the calculation
The tool applies the formulas shown on this page to the entered values.
- Review the result
Review the resulting specification and checks, then verify them against the cited source, current standard and real operating conditions before use.
Core formula
V = Q · t · Patm / ΔP
Example using default values
V = 500 · 1 · 1.013 / 1 = 506 L → choose 1,000 L
