Zusammenfassung:Systems, methods, and non-transitory media for monitoring a reciprocating compressor determining a valve opening of a valve disposed in the reciprocating compressor using a sensor and determining a first location of a piston of the reciprocating compressor at the valve opening. The monitoring also includes determining a valve closing of the valve using the sensor and determining a second location of the piston at the valve closing. Furthermore, the monitoring includes estimating a volumetric efficiency based at least in part on the first and second location.
