Graduate Model pressure loss vs time for air in a cylinder w/ hole
Oh...my topic title...that's the specs for a random small compressor/tank I saw at Harbor Freight. The original Q stands (I think unanswered): Does that spec mean that the tank can release 90PSI air for .6 of a minute and 40PSI air for a full minute without a compressor cut-in?- Aaron Luckette

Graduate Model pressure loss vs time for air in a cylinder w/ hole
This started out simple. I simply want to attach an air hose to a surface (glue it down to a table) that is blowing out air into a harmonica. As I move the harmonica back and forth, it will make different pitches, like normal. My first Q was, I wonder what pressure I will need, so I that up...- Aaron Luckette

Graduate Model pressure loss vs time for air in a cylinder w/ hole
I actually bought a small fish tank compressor for testing. Although I've not found any information on its pressure specs, it doesn't deliver anywhere near the pressure I need. What I want - literally - is air coming out of a hose that is strong enough to move the reeds on a harmonica. I found...- Aaron Luckette

Graduate Model pressure loss vs time for air in a cylinder w/ hole
I have a similar inquiry, did a search, and came to this posting. I honestly never have heard the term effusion and this seems to, at least in this example, imply a threshold between accidental, negligible release of air/fluid from the tank out versus purposeful [measurable] release...which...- Aaron Luckette
