Reliability evaluation of rotary compressor by two-parameter step stress life testing.

Author(s) : YUN K. W.

Summary

One of major failure causes of rotary compressor is lubrication-related. Under the premise that bearings involve no major faults either in the design and material selection, their reliability is sensitive to the amount of system refrigerant charge and the amount of oil. The paper introduces a two-parameter step stress life testing methodology for evaluation of lubrication-related reliability. The methodology uses the amount of oil in the compressor oil sump and refrigerant in the refrigeration system as the two control parameters.
