...and how to avoid them Compressed air performance is often blamed on the compressor, when the real issue sits downstream in the pipework. Incorrect pipe sizing is one of the most common and costly mistakes in compressed air system design, leading to pressure loss, inefficiency, and avoidable operating expense. Understanding where pipe sizing goes wrong [...]
When it comes to compressed air efficiency, laminar flow is everything. The smoother your air moves through the system, the less energy is wasted. And believe it or not, laminar flow is influenced almost entirely by the air line you use. What Is Laminar Flow? In fluid dynamics, laminar flow describes how smoothly a gas [...]
