Résumé

A detailed numerical simulation of the thermal and fluid dynamic behavior of reciprocating compressors has been developed. The model is based on the integration of the transient fluid conservation equations (continuity, momentum, and energy) in the whole compressor domain (compression chamber, valves, manifolds, mufflers, shell, piston, connecting tubes, parallel paths, etc.) using instantaneous local mean values for different variables. Effective flow areas were evaluated considering a multidimensional model based on modal analysis of fluid interaction in the valve. In order to evaluate the instantaneous compression chamber volume, force balances in the crankshaft connecting rod mechanical system are simultaneously solved at each time-step. The thermal analysis of the solid elements is based on overall energy balances for each macro-volume considered (shell, muffler, tubes, cylinder head, crankcase, motor, etc.). The resulting governing equations (fluid flow, valve dynamics, conductive heat transfer in solids, etc.) are discretized by means of a fully implicit control volume formulation. The complete set of algebraic equations is coupled using the segregated pressure-based algorithm Semi-Implicit Method for Pressure-Linked Equations (SIMPLEC) extended to compressible flow. A detailed numerical analysis is presented with the aim of verifying the quality of the numerical solution.
