Q1:

The overall isothermal efficiency of the compressor is defined as the ratio of

A work required to compress the air isothermally to the actual work required to compress the air for the same pressure ratio

B isothermal power to the shaft power or B.P. of the motor or engine required to drive the compressor

C volume of free air delivery per stroke to the swept volume of the piston

D isentropic power to the power required to drive the compressor

ANS:B - isothermal power to the shaft power or B.P. of the motor or engine required to drive the compressor
