    250 vs. 300 Bar Bottles

    You need to figure in "Boyles law" also. John

    The Future of PCP Airguns (7000 PSI Compressor Review Video) AEA 480bar PCP Compressor is here....

    I see this as really silly as the GAS LAWS well documented by "Boyles Law" has such diminished returns going much above 250 bar with air as we breath it. There is NO linearity in shot count to pressure increase as you go higher and higher ... UNLESS compressing a gas such as pure nitrogen which...

    The limiting factor

    Not sure about “maxed out by Bernoulli’s Law”, but we do work under Boyle’s Law which is still just an approximation at the relatively low pressures that airguns use, where air behaves much like an ideal gas. But once we get much above 3000psi, air becomes less “ideal”. So we are close to “maxed...

    N/A Help me out with the Math! If i have a 1000cc 300bar bottle filled- how many times can i fill my 700cc gun bottle at 250bar?

    i did not know this- thank you for explaining... but tell me this- will i be good served with a 6.8l or 6800cc carbon scuba tank for 219euro? is it good size or maybe too big or too small? i might get only 40-50 shots with my .30 cal using my 700cc bottle so reffiling will become an issue

    The limiting factor

    Mass flow limiting... Beyond my paygrade. Aside from bigger tank and longer barrel, if folks want "more" going up in caliber seems the next logical step, if keeping with hpa.

    FX FX Impact M3 1st Reg Deleted 300 bar?

    FX seems to say no in most of the literature and direct video info I have seen. The Huma high pressure reg is great but it still has a max working pressure and a max safe pressure. Personally I would not fill past 250Bar with a single reg. I have a 300Bar bottle on my two reg Impact M3 and only...

    N/A Help me out with the Math! If i have a 1000cc 300bar bottle filled- how many times can i fill my 700cc gun bottle at 250bar?

    There is a law of diminishing returns when it come to a gas filled into a pressurized vessel. It is not a linear 1:1 math formula unfortunately. https://www1.grc.nasa.gov/beginners-guide-to-aeronautics/boyles-law/

    Brain teaser for any math wizards

    What is FPV? This is Boyles law "For a fixed mass of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional" I mistook it for a derivative of Bernoulli's principle earlier, but its actually Boyles law. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyle%27s_law

    I had a Huben hand pump, it would do 5000 psi.

    Cylinder pressure drop due to cooling

    Physics 101 - Charles Law and Boyles Law. What you observe is normal so you can smile :) I have a very small tank I use and put it in the freezer before transfer filling from the larger donor tank.

    The Next Breakthrough in airguns

    There is also a Z factor in the equation to account for variation in temperature and pressure: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility_factor Practically speaking, at the temperature we operate at, air is 3% less compressible at 200 bar, but that rises to 10% at 300 bar and 14% at...

    The Next Breakthrough in airguns

    Gotta love nerdy threads like this. According to Boyle's Law the equation to get the volume of air it seems to be linear based on pressure. Volume of free gas in a Storage Volume The amount of free gas at atmospheric pressure in a given volume - like a cylinder storage - can be calculated my...

    The Next Breakthrough in airguns

    I think my Omega trail charger will do 4500, as I fill one of my guns to 4300 max.. but I'm not sure I'd want to try 5000 as it's close to the top end of the gauge.. it's been a great compressor for 8 years and unless I know for sure from someone else, I don't think I'd risk the compressor.. it...

    How do I calculate how much air is in a plenum?

    Here’s a link. In the INITIAL VOLUMES and FINAL VOLUME boxes, touch the blue letters to find the description like cc’s psi etc. https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/boyles-law

    Can one large air tank fill a small air tank

    I fill a small tank all the time from a SCBA tank. I am talking a tank so small it could be on a bottle gun. Put the small tank in the freezer first. Boyles and Charles law applies here. Same principle as filling 1# propane tanks from a 20# tank.

    Bottle to recharge PCP

    I have a 90cu-in Ninja tank and it can refill my Notos a ton of times from 4500 PSI. Anything above 90cu-in and you will be fine. I even have a tiny .5L (30.5 cu-in) pony bottle and get about 5 fills on my Notos. For the pony tanks leave then in a deep freezer to get a full 4500 PSI. Boyles...

    Notos losing some psi between shoot sessions

    Small air cylinder with temperature swings equals big pressure change. Larger cylinder with same temperature changes equals small pressure change. Boyles and Charles law — smaller cylinder means less volume. I own a Notos and the above math checks out :)

    How a Regulator Works (detailed video)

    Yes... and when I got into work this morning (I thought about it all through shower and drive in) I searched some sources. I believe it is Boyle's law. The left side of the pic above is a smaller reservoir and as such will have higher pressure (closing the piston against the seal) than the...
