A computer model for prediction and analysis of an oil-flooded single screw compressor performance is developed. The model includes suction preheat, pressuri ~~.tion of the gas in the control volume during the suction closure process, flowage of gas and oil mixture through discharge port, leakage of gas and oil. It considers the effect of oil-injection rate, clearances and length of leaka~e pat...

Abstract In this paper, the sparrow search algorithm is used to predict discharge coefficient (Cd) of triangular side orifice for first time. Dimensionless parameters influencing size Cd orifices are obtained as input values and output model. The results show that determination R2 0.973, root means square error RMSE 0.0122, average absolute percentage 0.010% in testing phase. model has high for...
