Water
jacketing in cylinder of a reciprocating piston-cylinder air compressor leads
to the :
prevention of
seizure of piston due to high temperature
increase in
mass of air taken in during the intake stroke
prevention of damage to compressor valves due to high temperature of
compression
reduction in
the work required for compression
reduction in
the work required for compression
●Water
jacketingin cylinder of a reciprocating piston-cylinder air compressor leads to
the reduction in the work required for compression.
●Water jacketis
a water-filled casing surrounding a device, typically a metal sheath having
intake and outlet vents to allow water to be circulated continuously.
●For industrial
applications, water jackets are most commonly found in reciprocating piston
combustion engines.
Hence, the
correct option is (D).
