Swept Volume
Swept volume is the volume swept
by a compressor piston during a complete stroke. Swept volume is expressed
in cubic inches and calculated as follows:
Head End = Area Piston (in2)
* Stroke (in)
Crank End = (Area Piston (in2)
- Area Rod (in2)) * Stroke (in)
Total = [2 x Area Piston (in2)
- Area Rod (in2) ] * Stroke (in)
