Summary

The deflection of the crankshaft which transfers the power of motor to the pump of the compressor directly affects the vibration, noise and wear problems in the rotary compressor, therefore, with the requirement of higher reliability, it is important to obtain it exactly in compressor design. Various forces that the crankshaft suffers are calculated by theoretical analysis in the operation process of the compressor. And based on the finite element method (FEM), the deflection of the crankshaft is obtained by simulation in the rotary compressors. And then the measurement is performed concerning the orbit of the top dead centre of the crankshaft with non-contacting displacement sensors in the compressor. In comparison with the tests, the validity of the calculation method is verified. It is found that the results of calculation are good agreement with the tests. In addition, several factors which affect the deflection of the crankshaft are analyzed with the FEM, and the influences of flange height, shaft diameter, mechanical air gap in the motor, rotor weight on the deflection are found distinctly, which as a primary theoretical basis is provided for the compressor design.
