A comprehensive model of scroll compressor. 2. Overall scroll compressor modelling.

Author(s) : CHEN Y., HALM N. P., GROLL E. A., et al.

Summary

In the overall model, compressor components are analyzed in terms of nine different elements. Steady state energy balance equations are established applying the lumped capacitance method. In combination with the detailed compression process model, these equations were implemented into computer code and solved iteratively. In this way, the temperature and pressure of the refrigerant in different compressor chambers, the temperature distribution in the scroll wraps, and the temperature of the other compressor elements can be obtained. Thereafter, power consumption and efficiency of the compressor can be calculated. Tests were used to verify the overall model on a macroscopic basis.
