Question: If (mathrm{k}) is the clearance ratio for a reciprocating air compressor, then volumetric efficiency will be: (a) (1+mathrm{k}-mathrm{K}left(mathrm{P}_{2} / mathrm{P}_{1} ight)^{mathrm{Vn}}) (b) (1-mathrm{k}+mathrm{K}left(mathrm{P}_{2} / mathrm{P}_{1}

If \(\mathrm{k}\) is the clearance ratio for a reciprocating air compressor, then volumetric efficiency will be:

(a) \(1+\mathrm{k}-\mathrm{K}\left(\mathrm{P}_{2} / \mathrm{P}_{1}\right)^{\mathrm{Vn}}\)

(b) \(1-\mathrm{k}+\mathrm{K}\left(\mathrm{P}_{2} / \mathrm{P}_{1}\right)^{\mathrm{Vn}}\)

(c) \(1+\mathrm{k}-\mathrm{K}\left(\mathrm{P}_{1} / \mathrm{P}_{2}\right)^{\mathrm{Vn}}\)

(d) \(1-\mathrm{k}+\mathrm{K}\left(\mathrm{P}_{1} / \mathrm{P}_{2}\right)^{\mathrm{Vn}}\)
