Real gas performance analysis of a scroll or rotary compressor using exergy techniques.

Summary

The paper further develops an analysis technique that uses the exergy (thermodynamic availability) of a gas to quantify the shaft power wastage in a compressor. Base equations are presented and results are given for how leakage, heat transfer, over/under compression (throttling), reexpansion volume and friction contribute to the overall power wastage in a scroll or rotary compressor.
