New High Efficiency R-134a Compressor

چکیده

Over the last thirty years, few changes have taken place in reciprocating refrigeration and freezer hermetic· compressors. Of course there have been design improvements and many new applications, but the basics have stayed the same. DOE requirements have brought new energy standards for 1993 and, with most of that work behind them, manufacturers of white goods are concentrating on alternate refrigerant conversions and new energy questions for 1994 and beyond. Since 1988 the development of hermetic compressor conversions and a new compressor design evolved through many stages from the chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) R·12 refrigerant to the hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) R·134a. Steps in the analysis and development process will be outlined to show how a once common energy efficiency range of 4.04.4 escalated to above 5.5 BTUjWatt Hour (Energy Efficiency Ratio= EER). Miscibility and solubility with R-134a and the lubricant of choice will be explored. Compatibility with compressor materials, lubricity and stability will be examined in order to better see chemically, mechanically, and thermodynamically the results of this, endeavor.

High Efficiency Compact Rotary Compressor Using the New Refrigerant HFC-134a for Automotive Air Conditioners

In accordance with worldwide consensus, the use of chlorofluorocarbons, which play an important role in damaging the ozone layer, should be completely abolished by the end of 1995. This provided the impetus for developing the three vane rotary compressor. Formerly CFC-12 was used as the refrigerant in automotive air conditioners, until HFC-134a was substituted for CFC-12. In response to the cha...
