A semi-empirical method for representing domestic refrigerator/freezer compressor calorimeter test data.
Author(s) : JÄHNIG D. I., REINDL D. T., KLEIN S. A.
Summary
In order to provide more appropriate data than those obtained with calorimeter tests, a semi-empirical model to represent compressor performance has been investigated. The model is based on the concept of volumetric efficiency and assumes a polytropic compression process. The model has five parameters that must be determined by fitting experimental data. Four or more measurements of refrigerant flow rate and compressor power were found to be sufficient to determine the model parameters, thereby allowing the generation of accurate compressor maps with the model.
