Thermal analysis of a small hermetic reciprocating compressor.

Number: pap. n. C8, 1307

Author(s) : KARA S., OGUZ E.

Summary

In this study, a commercially available Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code is used to carry out the thermal analysis of the crankcase. Two different configurations are taken into account where some of the boundary conditions are obtained from experimental studies and fundamental heat transfer correlations. This approach is used as a part of the studies to establish a general code for the performance prediction of compressors where the gas temperatures can be calculated via a one-dimensional transient simulation and the crankcase temperature can be obtained with the aid of a commercial solver.
