    Air Hello
AI Thread Summary
To calculate the volume of 8 liters of air compressed to 8.2 bar, use the ideal gas law, PV=nRT, while keeping temperature constant. The volume will decrease from 8 liters to approximately 8/8.2 liters when pressurized. This can be converted to cubic centimeters by multiplying the result by 1000. Clarifications were made regarding the misunderstanding of volume increase versus decrease. The discussion concluded with the original poster acknowledging their understanding of the calculations.

hello intelligent people

I need a little help
8 liter of air volume, ambient temp, then compressed at 8.2 bar = volume in cu cm?

thank you for your help...metric or US... volume would be 2.11 gl @ 120 psi keep it simple please

PV=nRT approximately. I suppose T remains constant, n and R are constants. Thus if you go from 1 bar to 8.2 bar, then volume goes from 8 liters to 8/8.2 liters... Multiply by 1000 to get it in cm cubes.
 


petr
thank you for your kind reply
maybe I was not clear I want to compress the 8 L(@ 1 psi) volume with 8.2 bar and want to know how much that volume will shrink to in cu cm
 


Didn't Petr Mugver practically gave you the answer already? Or did you not understand what you were given?

Zz.
 


propably did not understand it :(
I read as if he increased the volume...I want to decrease the volume by pressurizing it
sorry

Read it one more time.
 


I got it now thank you all!
