...less (by several orders of magnitude) than compressor failure for the reasons of thermal failure as a result of Charles law and Boyle's law. I believe anything that obstructs compressed air output increases the work load on a compressor. I believe that moisture filters after the LC-110 are...

You are correct and I agree with you in principle and Boyle’s law is a fact. Many people that want to get in to PCP airguns scrimp and save to have enough cash to buy that dream rifle and they don’t have the $2500 left to buy a cheap decent starter compressor and a tank to store and transport...

This thread has gotten a little off track. Back to your original enquiry. You have misunderstood the point that I was trying to make. The input air for your shoebox is going to be supplied from a doner scuba bottle and nothing else, right?. If that's the case, the same amount of air is going to...

OK, time for some high-school physics ...... Boyle's Law says that pressure (P) x volume (V) = constant at a fixed temperature If you mix two volume of gas, one at P1, V1 and the other at P2, V2 and put it into a container of volume V3 and get a pressure of P3, then P1 x V1 + P2 x V2 = P3 x...

Thanks to the members of the forum who have, in a round about way, reminded me that when I’m diving I don’t have a cylinder with 80cf of volume (at ambient pressure of course) strapped to my back, therefore Boyle’s Law will not grant me the mythical amount of air required to run the Shoebox for...

The short story here is compression heats and expansion cools. So the gun tank gets warm and the scuba source tank cools adiabaticly. Once the rifle tank cools down to ambient, pressure drops a bit due to Boyles law.

...have smaller steel or aluminum tube tanks. The aluminum or steel acts as a heat sink during the filling process. The light weight CF tanks and the large volume of air means the heat can’t absorb fast enough, and then cools after filling resulting in a pressure drop." _1 Birdo Boyle's law Ron

...from a large storage tank and not using a compressor. When your newly filled tank cools down to room temp, the pressure drops (google Boyle's law for the physics). If possible, its best to leave a tank at the shop overnight, and have them top off the next day. You will still get a pressure...

...math was simply because the number of fills was eluding the poster in the first place. edit: OK, I see now. In a reply later the original poster asked for the math behind the calculators...got it. Sorry about that. I can't give you an answer, but I'm sure Boyle's Law factors into it...


Wondering, did you even read thru the replies? We have the answer....... http://airgunnation.dev/topic/please-help-me-do-the-math/#post-71450 but let's see what the physicist has to say......

...A gas is a gas. Heated, they expand. Cooled, they contract. Alternately, compress them they get hot, or evacuate them and they cool. Boyle's Law is pretty simple. Steam just provides a dramatic example because it contracts so very much when it is cooled that it actually creates a vacuum...
