    Boyle's law can be used to calculate the storage volume of a compressed gas, where the atmospheric pressure, volume at atmospheric pressure, compressed pressure, and volume at compressed pressure are related. The amount of free gas at atmospheric pressure that can be stored in a given volume, such as a cylinder, can be determined by modifying Boyle's law. Common cylinder storage pressures range from low pressures of up to 480 psi to high pressures of around 6000 psi. For example, a 250 cubic foot cylinder storing air at 2000 psi holds around 34,264 cubic feet of air at atmospheric pressure.

    Calculate the storage volume of a compressed gas

    The storage volume for a compressed gas can be calculated using Boyle's Law: pa Va = pc Vc (1) where pa = atmospheric pressure (14.7 psi, 101.325 kPa) Va = volume of the gas at atmospheric pressure (cubic feet, cubic meter) pc = compressed pressure (psi, kPa) Vc = volume of the gas at compressed pressure (cubic feet, cubic meter) Volume of free gas in a Storage Volume The amount of free gas at atmospheric pressure in a given volume as a cylinder storage can be calculated my modifying (1) as: Va = pc Vc / pa (1) Gas can be stored in high-pressure cylinders ranging to 6000 psig (410 bar), normal-pressure cylinders ranging between 2000 and 2500 psig (140 and 175 bar) and low-pressure cylinders ranging up to 480 psig (34 bar). Example - Volume of Air in a Cylinder Storage

    The standard atmospheric air in a 250 cubic feet cylinder at 2000 psig (2014.7 psia) can be calculated as: Va = 2,014.7 (psia) 250 (cubic feet) / 14.7 (psig) = 34,264 (cubic feet)
