THE INFLUENCE OF LIQUIDS ON COMPRESSOR VALVES.

Author(s) : BAUER F.

Summary

THE PRESENCE OF LIQUIDS IN A COMPRESSOR VALVE ENVIRONMENT IS A MAJOR FACTOR IN THE LIFE OF A VALVE OR SEALING ELEMENT. THE NATURE OF THE FLUID, THE QUANTITY IN THE SYSTEM AND THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE FLUID ARE OF MAJOR CONSEQUENCE. THROUGH THE USE OF MODELLING TECHNIQUES THESE INFLUENCES ARE ANALYZED, SPECIFICALLY THE EFFECT OF GEOMETRY ON THE STICKING EFFECT. SEVERAL SOLUTIONS TO REDUCE THE EFFECT OF STICKING ARE INVESTIGATED.
