This pape,r describes a flow-visualizatio n technique that was employed to qualitatively evaluate the gas flow pattern inside a small, low side, hermetically sealed, re ciprocating refrigeration compressor. The applicable compressor des igns are those in which the suction gas from the evaporator is dumped into the compressor shell, and is then drawn through a muffler into the suction plenum of ...

This paper presents the construcrion, newly developed design technologies and performance characteristics of a compact horizontal scroll-type compressor for room air conditione~:s. The authors were able lo develop a compacl variable speed horizontal scroll-type compressor with a cooling capacity of I. 8 kW, which necessitated the development of new mechanisms, namely, an alCial compliance mecha...

We present a new lossless compressor for multispectral images having few bands. The mentioned compressor takes into account variations in spectral correlation in order to determine the appropriate spectral and spatial prediction to be performed. The algorithm exploits 2 different facts. On one hand, highly correlated bands may be efficiently compressed with fast computations. On the other hand,...

In axial flow compressor, blade surface roughness is affected by many failure modes such as fouling, erosion, corrosion and foreign object damage. But with development of filter performance, particles with diameter larger than 2 μm cannot enter into compressor, so fouling is the most important influence factor which results in the variation of surface roughness. This study respectively discusse...

AHRI Standard 540 (AHRI, 2015) is the current standard defining the methods for representing compressor performance data. The standard is widely used across the industry and uses a 10-coefficient third order polynomial equation to represent compressor published ratings. The accuracy of the data representation can be affected by multiple factors including measurement uncertainty, regression unce...

A computer program for thermodynamic performance of a scroll compressor was developed. The thermodynamic model assumes that the compression volumes of the scroll compressor are separated and interact only through leakages between them. The continuity and energy equations are used to calculate the pressure and temperature of the compression volumes. A leakage flow model is used to simulate the m...

In this article, we report the design of a reflective intensity-modulated optical fiber sensor for blade tip-clearance measurement, and the experimental results for the first stage of a compressor of an aircraft engine operating in real conditions. The tests were performed in a ground test cell, where the engine completed four cycles from idling state to takeoff and back to idling state. During...

Digital signal processor, image signal processor and FIR filters have multipliers as an important part of their design. On the basis of Vedic mathematics, Vedic multipliers have come out to be very fast multipliers. One of the image processing applications is edge detection. This research presents a small area and high speed 8 bit Vedic multiplier system comprising of compressor based adders. T...

Two’s complement multipliers are performance and power-critical components for wireless baseband signal processing applications. Parallel clusters of multiplier, multiply-add, multiply-accumulate cores are required to perform complex filter operations in Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) accelerators while consuming ultra low energy/operation [1]. A 12x9b single-cycle two’s complement twiddle multip...
