ShareSummary
The authors present the results from laboratory experiments involving a Roots compressor in an industrial refrigerating plant using water as the working fluid (vacuum system). They conclude that the compressor is not suitable for this kind of application due to low energy efficiency and operational problems. Alternative compressors should be developed.
