Author(s) : GODECKER W. J., JOHNSON W. C.

Summary

THIS PAPER DETAILS THE DESIGN AND TEST RESULTS OF A SLIDING VANE ROTARY COMPRESSOR FOR AN AIRCRAFT POD COOLING SYSTEM. THE APPLICATION FOR THIS COMPRESSOR IS THE ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL UNIT (ECU) FOR THE LOW ALTITUDE NAVIGATION AND TARGETING INFRARED FOR NIGHT (LANTIRN) ELECTRO-OPTICAL POD SYSTEM. THE ECU DESCRIBED HOUSES A FULLY CONTAINED R114 VAPOUR COMPRESSION COOLING SYSTEM FOR COOLING ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AT AMBIENT EXTREMES OF 289 TO 377 K (16 TO 104 DEG C). THE COMPRESSOR WAS SEMI-HERMETIC. SPECIFIC AREAS DISCUSSED INCLUDE COMPRESSOR REQUIREMENTS AND TEST RESULTS. HIGHLIGHTS OF OIL ABSORPTION AND REFRIGERANT CONDENSING IN THE COMPRESSION CYCLE WERE ANALYZED.
