Development of the new capacity control technique for the high efficiency scroll compressor.

Author(s) : MATSUKAWA K., KITAURA H., JOMURA S., et al.

Summary

Recently, from the viewpoint of global warming, the authors need to concentrate their effort on the improvement of compressor efficiency. They have developed a new capacity control technique, which is a combination of inverter drive and conventional mechanical capacity control technique. They have achieved 10% lower energy consumption compared with their conventional scroll compressor by improving the efficiency for 15% when in the use of part load. This paper explains the combination of the inverter drive and mechanical capacity control structure of the compressor and also the optimization of capacity control port with their high/low pressure housing and asymmetric scroll design.
