As the analysis tool the well-known commercial software package (FINE/Design3D) is used. As the optimization software IOSO PM (parallel algorithm of IOSO) is used. The prospect presents the results of optimizing a three-stage axial compressor. The optimization goal was to improve the compressor efficiency at two flight conditions by optimizing geometry of the 5 compressor rows (62 design parame...

surge is one of the two destructive factors in compressors. surge is the stream instability phenomenon in compressor that imposes severe damages to the compressors. nowadays, suppressingsurge phenomenon is one of the most important issues in oil and gas industries, especially when flow reduction or gas reflux is considered. according to moore-greitzer compressor model, this paper designs an act...

The performance prediction of axial flow compressors at different speeds and under various pressure ratio conditions are still being developed because of costly empirical experiments. One-dimensional modeling is a simple, fast and accurate method for performance prediction in any type of compressor with different geometries. In this approach, inlet flow conditions and compressor geometry are kn...

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...

The hybrid-power gas engine-driven heat pump (HPGHP) combines hybrid power technology with a gas engine heat pump. The engine in the power system is capable of operating constantly with high thermal efficiency and low emissions during different operating modes. In this paper, the mathematical models of various components is established, including the engine thermal efficiency map and the motor ...

There are two kinds of dual split type air-conditioner. One is of using two compressors for two indoor units; the other has only one compressor for two indoor units. The EER and refrigerating capacity of the former kind are just the same as the single split type's. But to one compressor dual split type system, there are two working ways: 1. compressor and both two indoor units operating, and 2....

The air compressor plays an extremely important role in the production of air separation. It provides the required specifications of compressed air for the follow-up air separation processes. It is difficult for an air compressor system to achieve the on-site production requirements because it is a time-varying, delay and nonlinear complex system. Articles for air compressor control system desi...

The effects of compressor speed variation on the heat transfer inside a speed controlled compressor were investigated in this study. Based on the lumped capacitance ntethod, the temperatures of the compressor components, the oil, and the refrigerant gas within the shell were modeled and simulated on a relative scale. A diffenmt heat transfer coefficient correlation was developed to evaluate the...
