Summary

A semi-empirical modeling approach for predicting the flow rate, input power, and discharge temperature of scroll compressors has been developed. Using a dataset comprised of five scroll compressors that were tested with multiple refrigerants, the prediction accuracy of the modeling approach is evaluated. The generalizability of the modeling approach to predict compressor performance of alternative refrigerants is demonstrated. Further refinement of the modeling approach accounting for fluid properties of specific refrigerants is investigated.
