MEASUR-Tools-Suite v1.2.4
The MEASUR Tools Suite is a collection of industrial efficiency calculations written in C++ and with bindings for compilation to WebAssembly.

Pressure-reduction and cascading-set-point calculations use the same adjusted power and airflow equations. The exponent 0.283 is the legacy pressure-power relationship retained by this assessment.
\begin{equation}\label{eq:compressor-eem-pressure-power} P_{adj} = P_{FL} \frac{\left(\frac{P_{adj,FL}+P_{alt}}{P_{alt}}\right)^{0.283} - 1} {\left(\frac{P_{FL,g}+P_{atm}}{P_{atm}}\right)^{0.283} - 1} \end{equation}
\begin{equation}\label{eq:compressor-eem-pressure-airflow} Q_{use,adj} = Q_{use} - \left(Q_{use} - Q_{use}\frac{P_{adj,FL}+P_{alt}}{P_{FL,g}+P_{atm}}\right)0.6 \end{equation}
| \(P_{adj}\) | Adjusted full-load power \([\unit{ \kilo\watt}]\) |
| \(P_{FL}\) | Baseline full-load power \([\unit{ \kilo\watt}]\) |
| \(P_{adj,FL}\) | Adjusted full-load gauge pressure \([\unit{ \psig}]\) |
| \(P_{FL,g}\) | Baseline full-load gauge pressure \([\unit{ \psig}]\) |
| \(P_{alt}\) | Altitude pressure \([\unit{ \psia}]\) |
| \(P_{atm}\) | Atmospheric pressure \([\unit{ \psia}]\) |
| \(Q_{use,adj}\) | Adjusted use airflow \([\unit{ \acfm}]\) |
| \(Q_{use}\) | Baseline use airflow \([\unit{ \acfm}]\) |
| \(0.6\) | Legacy pressure-flow response factor \([\unit{ \unitless}]\) |
