Is there a relationship between air compressor flow and pressure?

There is indeed a certain relationship between the flow rate and pressure of the air compressor.

Simply put, the flow rate of the air compressor, that is, the volume of compressed air discharged per unit of time, is closely related to the exhaust pressure. When the speed or power of the air compressor is certain, if the exhaust pressure decreases, the air compressor can discharge more air, that is, the flow rate will increase; conversely, if the exhaust pressure increases, the air compressor needs to consume more energy to compress the air, so the flow rate will decrease accordingly.

This relationship can be intuitively reflected in the performance curve of the air compressor. Performance curves usually show the flow performance of air compressors under different exhaust pressures, which can help users understand the performance characteristics of air compressors under different working conditions.
