Note 1
Buffer time is the time interval in which the the receiver is supplying the required air flow
rate whithout receiving any compressor flow. The receiver is initially at a pressure P initial
and is able to deliver the required air flow rate until its pressure reach its minimum
value Pfinal. A minimum of 15 minutes is recommended as a buffer time [10].

Example - Sizing an Air Receiver V= tBuffer * Vreq_S * patm / (pinitial_g - pfinal_g)
Scfm tbuffer = 5
For an air compressor system with mean air consumption 1000 cfm, tbuffer = 0.083333
maximum tank pressure 110 psi, Vreq_S = 1000
minimum tank pressure 100 psi and
5 sec time for the receiver to go from upper to lower pressure - patmS = 14.7
the volume of the receiver tank can be calculated by modifying (1) to pinitial_g = 110
pfinal_g = 100
V= 122.5
= (5 sec) (1/60 min/sec) (1000 cfm) (14.7 psi) / ((110 psi) - (100 psi))
= 122 ft3
