🔍 Key Concepts

• Piston displacement rate in a reciprocating air compressor • Relationship between stroke volume, piston speed, and displacement per unit time • Difference between theoretical displacement and actual output (volumetric efficiency)

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: which option directly changes how much swept volume is moved per unit of time by the piston? • Which terms describe machine characteristics or performance (like efficiency or capacity) rather than the basic mechanical motion of the piston? • If the cylinder size and stroke stay the same, what variable can you change to move more or less air through the same cylinder in one minute?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on the definition of piston displacement rate: volume displaced per unit time by the piston movement. • Separate what is a result (capacity or efficiency) from what is a controllable mechanical variable that determines displacement rate. • Confirm which choice is directly related to how fast the piston completes strokes rather than how well the compressor fills or compresses the air.
