Summary

This paper presents experimental and numerical results of the dynamic characteristic and COP of a linear compressor in a refrigeration system using R600 refrigerant. The numerical analysis consists of a model and a simulation that includes the linear compressor. In this study, the dynamic characteristic of the natural frequency of the linear compressor is validated by comparing the simulation results with the experimental results. To investigate the effect of system resonance on the performance of linear compressor, COP is evaluated under evaporator pressure in the range of 48.3-63.2 kPa abs, and condenser pressure in the range of 439.0-573.3 kPa abs. Based on the results, the system resonance at the TDC was varied within a range of 3% under the test conditions. COP and its sensitivity were found to vary within 3% according to the operating frequency of the system ranging from 48.5 to 51.5 Hz.
