the aim of this study is designing the impeller of a centrifugal compressor in order to supply pressure ratio for a 65 kw micro gas turbine. first, the primary thermodynamic analysis has been conducted for the considered cycle using a home made code. herein, the compressor pressure ratio was considered to be 4. the obtained thermal efficiency was 25.64%. then, the design of micro compressor in ...

Since conventional crank-driven compressor had many difficulties to increase efficiency due to mechanical loss, new kind of compressor has been paid much of attention by the compressor manufacturers. The free piston compressor mechanism has been one of those kinds. The compressor manufacturers developed an energy efficient free piston linear resonance compressor for a household refrigerator. In...

On the idealized situation of simply supported discharge tubes it is demonstrated how the discharge and suction pressures influence the resonance frequencies and thus the force transmission from the compressor to the compressor shell. The influence of flow velocity is also briefly discussed. With minor modifications, all results are also applicable to suction tubes in cases of high side compres...

In recent years, several research activities have been conducted to develop knowledge in analysis, design and optimization of compressor anti-surge control system. Since the anti-surge control testing on a full-scale compressor is limited to possible consequences of failure, and also the experimental facility can be expensive to set up control strategies and logic, design process often involves...
