Résumé

In a vapor compression refrigeration system, the oil enhances the efficiency of the compressor but impairs the performance of the heat exchanger. This paper focuses on the experimental study of the influence of oil quantity on the operational stability of CO2 air conditioning system. The operational stability of the system under different oil charge quantity and operating conditions is studied. The experimental results indicate that when the oil circulation rate increases to a certain value, the adjustment of electronic expansion valve (EXV) opening or the compressor speed will cause system fluctuation and the outlet of evaporator gets close to no superheat. The critical oil circulation rate of the experimental system is about 9.2 %. The analysis of the fluctuation shows that it becomes more severe with the increasing of the refrigerant mass flow rate. When the mass flow rate increases from 210 kg∙h−1 to 250 kg∙h−1 at 7000 r min−1 of compressor speed, the fluctuation frequency increases from 0.072 Hz to 0.095 Hz. The occurrence of unstable phenomena has remarkable impact on system performance, the maximum difference of this system in instantaneous cooling capacity and COP during the fluctuation period is respectively 0.5 kW and 0.13.
