Design of an unloader system for moderate capacity refrigeration screw compressors.

Author(s) : SAULS J.

Summary

The paper reviews the design of a combination variable/fixed-step port unloader system for moderate capacity refrigeration screw compressors. The general specification of an unloader system to meet application requirements and specific issues of port and flowpath design are discussed. The paper demonstrates use of a comprehensive compressor simulation and a commercial pipe flow analysis program in the design. Comparisons with experimental data are also presented.
