  Re: SSClagorpion - Compressor
 
(...) I was assuming that the model would use whatever air pressure it was given, unless the state machine was shut off. Given the volume of air that it will take to make the circuit progress, an air tank won't hold enough air to help. Based on this (...) (20 years ago, 21-May-04, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: SSClagorpion - Compressor
 
(...) One thing I noticed is that the example pump someone showed earlier has both output lines joined into one T connector, to make a single output line. If airflow is a problem, then wouldn't it be better to keep them separate, with two or more (...) (20 years ago, 21-May-04, to lugnet.technic)

  Re: SSClagorpion - Compressor
 
(...) That is absolutely right. Nice one David. It makes me think we could have high preformance pistons by playing with the variables at both ends. In practice, a boring out of the nipple hole diameter is like what boosted the horse power in my (...) (20 years ago, 20-May-04, to lugnet.technic)
