Simulation and parametric analysis of the suction valve of a small reciprocating compressor.

Author(s) : PRODAN M. M., ATANASIU M.

Summary

The article is focussed on small reciprocating compressors for household appliances. The global model of the pump is composed of several sub-models and a one-degree of freedom valve motion has been implemented. A reliable comparison has been made possible with the experimental results or with the technical data of the manufacturer. Hence, a commercial hermetic compressor operating with R-134a and R-600a is concerned. The influence of the following aspects on the volumetric efficiency and compressor work has been studied: suction valve geometry and characterisation parameters of suction valve (mass, stiffness, damping coefficient). Results demonstrate distinct behaviours, which are expected to have a major impact on the performance of systems
