A comparative study of the reed valve assembly to optimize compressor performance.

Summary

The valve, backer and port are usually treated individually in design and through production. This limits the overall assembly performance due to the individual part restrictions. The interrelationships of the three can be optimized to improve performance in the dynamic operation of the air compressor. Consequently, this comparative study of the discharge valve assembly will show a few key ways the valve, backer and port can be changed to improve the performance of the compressor.
