EXPERIMENTAL EVALUATION OF SUCTION VALVE BEHAVIOUR IN A VARIABLE SPEED HEAT PUMP COMPRESSOR.

Summary

AN EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE USED TO DETERMINE SUCTION PLENUM PRESSURE FLUCTUATIONS AND VALVE FORCES FOR A NOMINAL 2 1/2-TON (8.8 KILOWATTS) VARIABLE SPEED RECIPROCATING COMPRESSOR IS OUTLINED AND DISCUSSED. LABORATORY DATA ARE COMPARED WITH PREDICTIONS GENERATED BY A SIMPLIFIED COMPRESSOR MODEL AND THOSE OBTAINED BY USING MEASURED, INSTEAD OF COMPUTED, VALVE FORCES.
