DIFFERENT OPERATIONAL MODES FOR REFRIGERATION TWIN-SCREW COMPRESSORS.

Author(s) : SJOHOLM L.

Summary

THREE DIFFERENT OPERATIONAL MODES FOR THE REFRIGERATION TWIN-SCREW COMPRESSOR ARE DISCUSSED: OIL-FREE, OIL-REDUCED AND OIL-FLOODED. BY OIL-REDUCED OPERATION IS MEANT THE CASE WHEN THE OIL/GAS RATIO IS ABOUT 1% BY WEIGHT AND THE OIL IS CIRCULATED IN THE REFRIGERATION SYSTEM. THE ROTORS WORK WITHOUT TIMING GEARS, AS IN THE OIL-FLOODED MODE. ADVANCEMENTS IN PROFILE DESIGN AND ROTOR MANUFACTURE HAVE MADE THIS POSSIBLE.
