SIMULATION AND DESIGN STUDIES OF A MULTIPLE CYLINDER REFRIGERATION COMPRESSOR

摘要

The benefits of an analytical model of a refrigeration compressor are obvious in the amount of information that can be obtained quickly and inexpensively. With an analytical model, parameter studies can easily be performed in order to optimize the compressor design and its use in a given refrigeration system. The dynamics of certain parts of the compressor can be studied to determine possible modes of failure, and an important increase in the understanding of the compressor is obtained when the various phenomena occurring inside the compressor are put into a mathematical form.
