Dry rotary swaging–approaches for lubricant free process design

Influence of Lubricant on Rotary Compressor Using R407C

The selection of lubricant is a key point in developing rotary compressor using R407C as a substitute for R22. The viscosity of oil, miscibility with refrigerant, thermal stability and compatibility with motor materials, etc, are all considerations. Furthermore, by reason of the POEs are more hygroscopic than mineral oils, hydrolytic stability and hygroscopicity of the selected oil must be cons...

The Simulation and Design of a High Efficiency, Lubricant Free, Linear Compressor for a Domestic Refrigerator

The first phase of a project at Sunpower, Inc. sponsored by the EPA is described. The program involves the design, computer simulation and fabrication of a high efficiency linear compressor for application in domestic refrigeration. The use of a high efficiency electric motor and non-contact operation can dramatically reduce the electrical and friction losses associated with crank compressors. ...

Design of Optimal Process Flowsheet for Fractional Crystallization Separation Process

A procedure is presented that synthesizes fractional crystallization separation processes to obtain pure solids from multi-component solutions. The method includes a procedure to generate a network flow model to identify alternative process designs for fractional crystallization. The main advantage of this systematic procedure with respect to other reported procedures is using non-equilibri...
