Résumé

Discharge valves located in the compressor plenum are the gateway for the lubrication oil to leave the compressor. The compressor plenum space has the potential to separate the oil droplets and decrease the oil circulation ratio. In this paper, a video processing method is used to capture the oil droplet flow near the reed valve and in the discharge tube in a modified scroll compressor. Also, discrete phase model in computational fluid dynamics is used as the numerical approach to study the oil droplet trajectory inside the compressor plenum. In order validate the CFD simulation, size distribution from video processing at the valve is used as the input of the calculation and the calculation results are compared to size distribution in the discharge tube. Calculation shows how oil droplet size distribution affects the oil flow in the plenum.
