Theoretical study of seal spring in a Wankel compressor.

Author(s) : ZHANG D., WU Y., WANG J., et al.

Summary

The successful fabrication of a miniature Wankel compressor relies on its seal and seal spring.The factors that influence the seal of a miniature Wankel compressor mainly include axial double mechanical seal and apex seals.Axial mechanical seal depends on machining precision on the end face.In the compression chamber, the springs for seal flake on the Wankel rotor put pressure on the internal face of the cylinder ,which generates the desired amount of pressing force.When springs fails,high-pressure chamber and low-pressure chamber will be connected.Spring performance will directly affect the efficiency of a Wankel compressor.In this paper,we aim to introduce kinematic analysis of apex seals and force analysis of springs in a miniature Wankel compressor.
