The development of a series of sin~le-stage, oilfree screw air compressors with a compression ratio of 8, previously obtainable only with two-sta~e compressors, is described. A new rotor profile, which reduces leakage loss to achieve higher efficiency, and desig-ned for ease of manufacture, is detailed. Additionally, a new desig-n method for the clearance between rotors, to compensate for rotor...

Hermetic reciprocating compressor with elliptical shell radiates noise whose frequency spectrum has a peak level at about 200 Hz and about 300 Hz. The 200 Hz and 300 Hz noise is mainly radiated from the top and the side of the compressor shell, respectively. For clarifying the noise radiation mechanism, experimental and theoretical analyses were performed. A noise source simulation test was set...

Thermodynamic and dynamic analyses of a variable speed reciprocating compressor have been conducted to investigate performance changes and some data related to the reliability problems such as valve velocity, PV value, bearing loci, Sommerfeld number, minimum film thickness etc. The first law of thermodynamics, continuity equations, valve dynamic equations and Helmholtz resonator method were us...

Through the use of multiple-input/single-output (MISO) modeling, the propagation paths of sound within a reciprocating refrigeration compressor have been investigated and ranked. By investigating the nature of sound propagation within reciprocating compressors. it is hoped that strategies for compressor sound reduction can effectively be formulated . From experimental data of compressor far-fie...

The refrigeration and air conditioning industry shows much interest in environmentally-friendly natural refrigerants. One such refrigerant is R744, carbon dioxide. It is attractive because it is not toxic, not flammable, and is widely available as a byproduct of industrial processes. However, carbon dioxide (CO2) systems operate at much higher pressures than systems using HCFC, HFC, or HFC-blen...
