THE HIGH-RATIO CIRCULATING COMPRESSOR.

Author(s) : WEINBRECHT J. F.

Summary

A HIGH RATIO, POSITIVE DISPLACEMENT, TRANSVERSE FLOW, LOBED ROTOR RECIRCULATING COMPRESSOR IS DESCRIBED. THE DESIGN FEATURES AN INTEGRAL DOWNSTREAM HEAT EXCHANGER AND INTEGRAL RECIRCULATION DUCTS THAT CONVEY COOLED DISCHARGE-PRESSURE FLUID BACK TO INTERMEDIATE PORTS. THE PHYSICAL ARRANGEMENT PROVIDES CONTINUOUS RECIRCULATION FLOW BACK INTO THE DISPLACEMENT CAVITIES WITHOUT CONCURRENT COMMUNICATION WITH EITHER DISCHARGE OR INLET PORTS. SUCH COMMUNICATION IS PREVENTED BY FAVOURABLE GEOMETRY, INCLUDING THE USE OF 4-LOBED OR 5-LOBED ROTORS.
