Behavior of Vanes in Through-Vane Compressors.

Vane Behavior in Vane Compressors Under Start-up Operation

Vane oompressors can not maintain contact between a vane tip and a cylinder wall under start-up operation since backpressure acting on the vane is not sufficient. We theoretically analyzed transient behavior of the vane under the start-up operation by taking account of changes of the backpressure and discharge pressure after compression starting. The validity of the theoretical analysis was con...

Evaluation of Composite Vane Materials for Rotary Sliding Vane Compressors

The physical performance characteristics of composite materials used for vanes in rotary, sliding-vane compressors, in general, are several orders of magnitude more difficult to quantify for design purposes than most homogeneous materials. This arises from the numerous variables that influence the response of these materials under the severe environmental conditions existing in such compressors...

Analysis of Leakage Flow Through Clearance on Rotor Face in Vane Compressors

Mathematical Simulation of Lubrication Conditions in Rotary Vane Compressors

I N T R 0 D U C T I 0 N In recent years, the application of double-flow rotary vane compressor in automotive air-conditioning systems has been increased because of its multiple cylinder characteristic. A certain problem is its high friction loss at higher speeds. The greatest amount of the friction is caused by the lubrication systems between the vane tip and the cylinder wall and between vane ...
