MECHANICAL EFFICIENCY OF A VARIABLE SPEED SCROLL COMPRESSOR.

Author(s) : ISHII N.

Summary

THE STUDY PRESENTS THE CALCULATED MECHANICAL EFFICIENCY OF A VARIABLE SPEED COMPACT SCROLL COMPRESSOR FOR A WIDE RANGE OF SYNCHRONOUS-SPEED ON AN INDUCTION MOTOR. THE CALCULATED RESULTS WERE COMPARED WITH THOSE FOR A ROLLING-PISTON ROTARY COMPRESSOR WITH THE SAME COOLING CAPACITY. THE STUDY CONCLUDES THAT A SCROLL COMPRESSOR WITH OPTIMUM DIMENSIONS HAS THE SAME HIGH LEVEL OF MECHANICAL EFFICIENCY AS A ROLLING-PISTON ROTARY COMPRESSOR WITH THE SAME COOLING CAPACITY, AND THAT AS THE OPERATING SPEED INCREASES, THE MECHANICAL EFFICIENCY OF THE SCROLL COMPRESSOR DOES NOT DECREASE AS RAPIDLY AS THAT OF THE ROLLING-PISTON ROTARY COMPRESSOR.
