4. Piston Performance Semi-continuous process
Full piston cycle every 4 pedal revolutions
15ft charcoal per minute
Semi-Continuous Process; Full revolution of piston in 4 full pedal revolutions.; 1 piston revolution = (6in stroke)*(7 in^2 area)-(compressibility factor) = (3 in^2 area)*(12 ft log) at 60 rpm = 15 piston cycles per minute = 15 ft coal per minute
