 TERMINOLOGY
(Jargon)
Industry Language

Reciprocating = the act of moving back and forth.

12
 Terminology
Displacement = Area of piston X length of
stroke. Expressed in cubic
inches. (824.6 or 825)

= Internal combustion engine

Naturally Aspirated that receives combustion air
naturally, not force air.

= Internal combustion engine

Turbocharged that receives it’s combustion
air compressed.

13
 Terminology

Approach = 30°F approach means the cooler will

cool the gas to 130° when ambient
temperature is 100°F.

14
 Terminology
Units of Measure:

PSI = pounds per square inch

PSIG = pounds per square inch gauge
PSIA = pounds per square inch absolute
= gauge + atmospheric pressure
MMCFD = million cubic feet per day
MMSCFD = million cubic feet per day @ the
standard conditions of 14.65psia & 60°F

15
 Terminology
In-Hg = inches of mercury pressure
= can be a manometer or mercury filled
gauge, used where pressures are low &
extreme accuracy is desired
= 1” Hg = .491 PSI

In-H2O = inches of water pressure

= usually a manometer filled with water
= used for measuring very low pressure
= 1/13.6 as heavy as mercury
13.6” of H2O = 1” of Hg = .491 PSI

 Terminology
Temperature Scales:

Temperature =
A measure of molecular energy… the higher the
temperature the more molecular energy.

Degrees Fahrenheit (°F) =

Temperature scale where, at sea level, the
freezing point of water is 32° & the boiling point
is 212°. The distance between these two points
is 180°.
17
 Terminology
Temperature Scales:
Degrees Centigrade or Celsius (°C) =
A scale used worldwide which relates to the
metric system. At sea level, the freezing point of
pure water is 0° & the boiling point is 100°. The
distance between these two points is 100°.

Temperature range:
Centigrade = 100° = 5
Fahrenheit = 180° = 9

18
 Terminology

Temperature Scales:

Converting from ° F to ° C expressed as follows:

° C = 5/9 X (° F - 32)

Example: Convert 100° F to ° C

°C = 5/9 X (100 - 32)
= 5/9 X 68
= 37.8° C 19
 Terminology
Temperature Scales:
Degrees Rankin (° R) = Absolute temperature-
English Units
Used mostly in scientific work which relates the
Fahrenheit scale to absolute temperature.
Calculations are based on zero molecular energy.
Zero Molecular Energy = -460° F or absolute zero

Converting from ° F to ° R is expressed as follows:

° R = ° F + 460
Example: 100° F + 460 = 560° R
20
 Terminology
Temperature Scales: Degrees Rankin(cont.)
One use for ° R: Finding Discharge Temperature (T2)

(K-1/K) T1 = 60° F + 460 = 520°R

T2 = T1 X Rc Ps = 500 PSIG
(1.26-1/1.26) Pd = 1500 PSIG
T2 = 520 X 2.94 K = 1.26
.2
T2 = 520 X 2.94
T2 = 520 X 1.24
T2 = 644.8° R or 184.8° F
