Ball Beating Lubrication in Refrigetation Compressors

چکیده
When the re:fiigerant R l34a is mixed with an ester oil and usea m compressor bearing lubrication, no EP action is experienced. The refrigerant contains no chlorine and the lubricant additives can not be chemically active like normal EP additives, not to deposit in and destroy the heat excha..>Jgers. The iubricant film thickness thus needs to be considerably larger for an Rl34a compressor bearing than for e.g. an R22 compressor bearing if the same service life should be expected for the two bearings. Typically 50% higher viscosity was needed for the R134a mixture to get a certain wear rate compared to ail R22 mixture giving the same wear rate. To avoid the problem with high wear rate at high re:fiigerant concentrations and to make it possible to run the compressor bearings with less oil an experimental investigation was performed. The experiments investigated the possibility to locally increase the oil concentration at the elastohydrodynamic contacts in the bearings to get better lubrication.

Lubrication Analysis of Rotary Compressors for HFC Refrigerants
In this study, a practical numerical analysis has been developed in order to investigate the lubrication characteristics between a rolling piston and a crank of rotary compressors. This analysis is treated as a coupled problem of the momentum equations and the Reynolds equation of oil film. Using this analysis, the lubrication characteristics between the rolling piston and the crank for 2-cylin...

Water Lubrication of Stainless Steel using Reduced Graphene Oxide Coating
Lubrication of mechanical systems using water instead of conventional oil lubricants is extremely attractive from the view of resource conservation and environmental protection. However, insufficient film thickness of water due to low viscosity and chemical reaction of water with metallic materials have been a great obstacle in utilization of water as an effective lubricant. Herein, the frictio...
