Leak Flow, Compressor Specific Power, Annual Wasted Energy, Generator Fuel, CO₂, Receiver Decay & Repair Payback

Marine Compressed Air Leak & Compressor Energy Cost Tool

Turn a compressed-air leak estimate or onboard leak survey into wasted compressor power, annual energy loss, generator-fuel equivalent, emissions exposure and repair payback. Advanced mode models the online compressor fleet, individual leak groups and an optional receiver-pressure decay cross-check.

Fast Leak Energy & Repair Screen

Simple mode estimates leak airflow as a share of online compressor capacity. The control-response factor adjusts how much compressor input power is attributed to incremental leak demand.

Online Compressor Fleet

Marginal leak-power screening uses loaded minus unload/idle input power, then applies the global control-response factor.

Receiver-Pressure Decay Cross-Check

Optional isolated-system free-air estimate. Use with compressors isolated, intentional air use stopped and temperature reasonably stable.

Compressed-Air Leak Program Readiness

Compressed-air planning screen only: actual leak savings depend on system pressure, compressor type, controls, sequencing, unload power, VSD behavior, receiver storage, treatment losses and operating duty. Repairs on pressurized systems require vessel isolation and safety procedures. This tool does not prescribe starting-air, control-air or service-air settings.
