The low speed perfommlce of low stagger compressor bl&i.ng at three pitcbdchord ratlios-by-Two stages of low qeed, low stagger blading were tested &t man diameter pitc$/chord ratios of 0.43, 0.66 and C.34. Contmry to the indications of some earlier published work, t'nere was no si@ficant Pall-off in elYiciency at the lowest, pitching, and the trend of the performance was in line with that predi...

A horizontal hermetic scroll compressor has been developed for applications with high heatof-compression gases, including natural gas, air and helium (cryogenics). The compressor is a low profile horizontal design with oil-flooded cooling of the compression process. Combined with components required for oil separation and cooling, this design provides a smooth, continuous compression process fe...

This paper describes the experimental and analytical techniques used to identify and correct the noise and vibration concerns in a new family of reciprocating compressors. Operating sound, vibration and pressure pulsation data were acquired simultaneously on a prototype compressor. Analysis of this data led to two areas of concern. The first concern was identified using Operating Deflection Sha...

CO2 refrigerant with a high operating pressure has a large difference between the suction and discharge pressures in compressors. Because of a load increase, the high performance and high reliability of compressors are required. Compared to the scroll compressor employing the conventional refrigerant, the thrust load increases in the CO2 scroll compressor. Therefore the design of thrust bearing...

Determination of the starter torque-speed diagram is a major task in the design or selection of a proper gas turbine starter. In this paper, the maximum power of the MGT-40 gas turbine starter was calculated based on the dynamics of the rotor, start-up logic, and compressor map. In a recent research, the pressure ratio was assumed as a linear function of the rotor speed and the required sta...

This paper presents 16×16 bit Radix-4 Modified Booth’s Multiplier (MBM) optimized for high speed multiplication by using pipeline Technique. This paper aims at reduction of hardware utilization. This is accomplished by the use of 3:2 compressor adders. An efficient VHDL code has been written, successfully simulated on Modelsim 10.2 simulator and Xilinx 12.4 navigator is used for synthesizing th...

The paper presents the neuro-fuzzy controller algorithm for air conditioning system. Neuro-fuzzy control combines the learning capabilities of neural networks and control capabilities of fuzzy logic control. The neurofuzzy controller for air conditioning system takes two inputs from temperature and humidity sensors and controls the compressor speed. The experimental results of the developed sys...
