A horizontal hermetic scroll compressor has been developed for applications with high heatof-compression gases, including natural gas, air and helium (cryogenics). The compressor is a low profile horizontal design with oil-flooded cooling of the compression process. Combined with components required for oil separation and cooling, this design provides a smooth, continuous compression process fe...

gas turbines play an important role in supplying power for the country especially in peak electricity load. the main disadvantages are the turbines, they produce large changes are a result of climate change. however, in times of peak electricity grid and at the same time warm months, can produce gas turbines under the effect of ambient temperature, the amount of reduced considerably. the method...

A comparison of the start-up cooling capacities for an automotive R744 and an automotive R134a air conditioning system is presented. It is shown that development of the cooling capacities during start-up can be described with one correlation for both systems. The comparison of the cooling capacities and the redistribution of refrigerant mass during start-up suggest a strong relationship between...

Free cooling techniques can be used to substantially reduce energy costs. During cold weather, the outside ambient temperature can help in saving energy in refrigeration systems. The low temperature of the cooling ambient air supply enables free cooling technique to store fresh fruits and vegetables. This energy-efficiency measure can save enough compressor electric power to pay for modulating ...

This paper presents the construcrion, newly developed design technologies and performance characteristics of a compact horizontal scroll-type compressor for room air conditione~:s. The authors were able lo develop a compacl variable speed horizontal scroll-type compressor with a cooling capacity of I. 8 kW, which necessitated the development of new mechanisms, namely, an alCial compliance mecha...

An updraft tower cooling system is assessed for elimination of water use associated with power plant heat rejection. Heat rejected from the power plant condenser is used to warm the air at the base of an updraft tower; buoyancy-driven air flows through a recuperative turbine inside the tower. The secondary loop, which couples the power plant condenser to a heat exchanger at the tower base, can ...

There is a growing need for compressed air free of entrained oil to be used in industry. In many cases it can be supplied by oil flooded screw compressors with multi stage filtration systems, or by oil free screw compressors. However, if water injected screw compressors can be made to operate reliably, they could be more efficient and therefore cheaper to operate. Unfortunately, to date, such m...

Typical automotive air conditioning refrigeration systems employ thermostatic expansion valve or orifice tube controls in a single stage refrigerant circuit. A new automotive air conditioning compressor has been developed that has a two stage compression process, which makes designing and producing a two stage refrigerant circuit more practical. Since this compressor can function in a single st...

In this study, a frequency converter was used to carry out variable frequency control to the compressor with constant frequency of a small 3RT central air-conditioning air-cooled chiller, but the indoor blower and cooled water pump were still kept by constant frequency operation. It is to explore the energy-saving effect of chiller compressor and the cooling fan after being carried out the vari...
