Piping vibration which is mainly caused by the torsional vibration of rotary compressor can be a major noise source of air-conditioner. Especially, the tangential vibration of rotary compressor which is due to the torsional vibration is much higher than the radial vibration or the vertical vibration of compressor. A study as to how the tangential vibration of rotary compressor is related with t...

The Axial compressor is an integrated part of a gas turbine. The central part of compressors is its blades. Blade aerodynamic has a significant effect on compressor performance. Because of the adverse pressure gradient in the compressor, any deviation in the blade profile has a significant influence on the flow field as well as the compressor performance. During the manufacturing and operation ...

Mathematical models have been popularly applied to study the compression processes of superheated refrigerant vapor in compressors. As to the case when refrigerant enters a compressor cylinder in the state of liquid and vapor mixture, however, the availability of fundamental studies is very limited. -A mathematical model is presented to simulate the compression processes of two-phase saturated ...

Compressor performance is ioiluenced by many factors. Besides the commonly considered factors such as suction gas heating, leakage, compressed gas re-expansion, gas pulsations, and back flow, supercharging effect on performance is also studied. Since the compressor used in this study operates in a wide speed range, from 1100 rpm up to 9000 rpm, how those factors affect the compressor performanc...

the noise profile. In order to locate the various sources of noise of the hermetic rolling position type compressor for room air conditioners, we experimentally analyzed the compressor noise and found that a main cause of the·noise was the acoustically amplified pressure pulsation in various parts of the compressor. Moreover, with reference to results of this noise source analysis, several proc...

The energy efficiency of separate sensible and latent cooling (SSLC) airconditioning system is higher than traditional one, since SSLC system uses separate cycles which can raise the evaporating temperature of sensible cycle. Separate cycles often include two separate compressors, which makes the initial investment of SSLC cycle too expensive to use in room air conditioning. A novel structure r...

An experimental rig has been built to test a horizontal scroll compressor and a reciprocating compressor of similar size and capacity. The compressors were tested with refrigerant.R404A operating at varying evaporator and condenser temperatures. The paper provides much needed information regarding the efficiency of the compressors operating under the same conditions with the same system paramet...

During hot seasons the inlet temperature of Nitrogen increases, as a result compressor consumes more power for compressing a specific mass ratio of fluid and consequently total energy consumption of the compressor increases as well. In this research, a three stage centrifugal compressor with intercooler was modeled thermodynamically in order to decreases the energy consumption of the compressor...

Previous work on stabilization of compressor surge is extended to include control of the angular velocity of the compressor. First a low-order centrifugal compressor model is presented where the states are mass flow, pressure rise, and rotational speed of the spool. Energy transfer considerations are used to develop a compressor characteristic. In order to stabilize equilibria to the left of th...

For the optimal high-efficiency operation of a PEM fuel cell system, temperature, pressure, humidity and mass flow supplied air must be tuned to stack requirements. Especially for aircraft applications, this requires thorough understanding supply system behavior how it changes when ambient pressure is below 1 bar(a) during flight. This work investigates influence low inlet pressures varying tem...
