What is Bumping Clearance and Clearance Volume?? Compressor Damages

[@chandradarmarajan8768]

You are like a gem in the marine industry and very hard to come by. Your have combined the use of simple sketches , underlying concepts and clear explanation with a tinge of comedy ; all within a span of a handful of minutes. Our devoted attention is most guaranteed. This is exactly what we need because it really takes away the mental stress and boredom that sets in when we try to make sense out of lengthily explained texts , overly detailed manuals and construction drawings .

[@shankarrams3834]

Ramesh good one. To be simple clearance vol measured in cubics where as bumping clearance in mm(linear). Normally the con. rod is integral part of bottom end bearing. So shim insertion point cannot be done. In one case I heard while assembling one cyl head nut dropped inside and no one was aware. At the end they replaced a nut from spare thinking the lost nut might have gone to bilges. On starting they had a bang and piston damage. One more way of breaking compressor. So good practice is after o' haul try compressor for its free rotation manually

[@johnsnow9224]

Crystal clear explanation💯 with some funny elements 😅 13:02

[@MotivesMedia]

So by bottom of cylinder head do you mean the bottom of compound valve guide?

[@SanjayYadav-qu1mf]

Please keep posting the videos sir. You teaching style is so simple and interesting. Thankyou sir for all these videos and for all the future videos also

[@ashishr5855]

Thank you sir for passing on such a great eye opening knowledge 🙏

[@mechanicalengineeringtutorials]

Sir why do we take bumping clearance only in compressors and not in auxiliary engines and main engines.

[@pranayghadigaonkar5227]

In M/E or A/E we don't have the gap between the cylinder head and top dead centre of the piston bcoz in Engine the combustion takes place after combustion every gas present should get exhaust so if we keep clearance in engine the whole process will disturb n efficiency of the engine will drop. That's the reason their is no bumping clearance in Engines

[@pranayghadigaonkar5227]

Correct if wrong

[@shamsheerahammed3475]

Plz add more videos sir

[@rmetcvideos]

Surely want to, as soon as I get some time for creativity :-)

[@ankuryadav2711]

Very interesting Video sir, i used to think like if the bumping clearance increases then clearance volume will increase and thus more trapped air which cannot be pumped out , and which will affect the volumetric efficiency as those trapped air will not allow opening of suction valve till the time the pressure of trapped air falls below of atmospheric suction pressure.

[@rmetcvideos]

What you thought is correct...i guess ..thats exactly what we have also said in the video🤔

[@ra.rajawat]

Why bumping clearance is only in air compressor not in ac compressor or generator ?

[@ladakshay300]

Well explained ,sir can you tell us more about Free air Delivery and thus this is called the efficiency of the compressor?

[@rmetcvideos]

A compressor is a displacing device. The capacity of a compressor is obviously measured in Volume of Ar it can displace. Now , what is the volume of air a compressor can displace??. it is obviously the Volume of Air ENTERING the LP cylinder when Piston is at BDC. Now This air is obviously the FREE AIR, or the Air available at atmospheric pressure and temperature in the vicinity of the Air Suction Filter. Hence we always describe the compressor capacity in terms of FREE AIR DELIVERY. Otherwise it would create confusion..becoz Volume of Air depends upon the Pressure and Temperature of Air...which obviously keep changing. See our question ..You used the wrong term.FAD is CAPACITY of compressor.. not Efficiency.. Efficiency is the theoretical Volume of FAD which it is designed to displace to the ACTUAL volume ( FAD) it is displacing.

[@verminer7]

But if xompressor doesnt compress it only displace, how come multi stage compressor actually compress first stage 5 bar and second stage 30 bar? U have gauges to check those also on the air compressor

[@rmetcvideos]

Ha Ha...You cannot DISPLACE unless you compress to overcome the back pressure. That is why you always see that compression happens and the pressure developed depends upon the receiver pressure.

[@vigneshgunalan534]

many thanks for the video sir !!! since you explained that air compressor just displaces the air not compressing ,i have one doubt if the air bottle pressure is zero and we want to top up . now when we start the compressor what would be 2nd stage pressure by that time? #chiefengineersteatimetalk

[@sultanhussain6051]

Sir , one more thing , regarding compressor valve seat lapping , though we lap seats , as I remember , but lapping is also reducing the thickness of the seat in turn reducing the efficiency as a whole kindly put light on this . Thanks

[@virendradubey3886]

There is a limit for lapping plates. But generally now a days company provide plates inspite of full valve. So better to change it

[@rmetcvideos]

I am intending to make a small clip on this.But in the meantime..my opinion is not to lap too much.You dont gain much , but definitely eat away the seat.A light lapping is ok. even if valve leaks by an occasional drop of water ( water test)i think its OK.

[@adarshwarrier6281]

Sir Its known that as the clearance volume decreases, it increases our volumetric efficiency. As far as my understanding the following are the meanings for these terms: 1) Volumetric Efficiency - The vol. of air actually swept inside to the theoretical vol. of cylinder. 2) Clearance Volume- The diff. between the actual vol. of the cylinder and volume swept by the piston when it is at TDC 3) Compression ratio- The ratio of total vol. of the cylinder ( swept vol. + clearance vol.) to the clearance vol. So whenever we decrease the clearance vol. both vol. efficiency as well as compression ratio should increase. Now interestingly i found on the internet that compression ratio varies inversely with respect to vol. efficiency, but i couldn't decipher how this is possible. Is this true sir ? If so please explain the reason behind it?

[@rmetcvideos]

can you pls send me the link where you read it??lets see in what context he says

[@rajasekar5917]

Maine engine trouble shooting video sir...

[@ZeeshanAhmed-nj5zh]

Why is Bumping clearance not adjusted on one stage alone ?

[@rmetcvideos]

The idea is to dispalce as much Air as possible to the AIr Bottle. SO If bumping clerance is not adjusted in 2nd Stage, part of the air will remain in 2nd stage. SO the amount of Air which will get into the 2nd stage from 1st stage will be lesser . Unless you adjust 2nd stage , there is no benefit is adjusting 1st stage

[@najinkunnath6009]

How can we do pressure test of intercooler and aftercooler onboard ? How to know whether the cooling water flow is correct ?

[@rmetcvideos]

well a bit tough. Need to blank off and hold pressurized water and conclude basis drop in water pressure and the time taken for the pressure drop and also observe the Drains. Cannot SEE the leak.Hence can only be done Indirectly. If leak is suspected and you have a strong reason then you probably need to remove the tube stack and make a special, tool with available material to locate the leaky tube.Maybe I should make a video to explain better

[@kislaymishra6846]

✌️✌️

[@rishabhsaxena7]

Amn back pressure cannot happen because , NON RETURN valve is placed b/w air bottle and compressor

[@rmetcvideos]

Ha Ha..When the compressors starts the NR Valve opens and then what ??? Backpressure always acts when Compressor is PUMPING

[@nightryder9949]

Back pressure is there always after the unloader is closed. Since the NRV is in open position and the volume of the air bottle is more.

Sir plz make a video on comparison of refrigeration unloader valve and main air compressor unloader valve... Loved watching yur videos. Thank you for guiding us...
