Study on Characteristics of the Linear Air-Conditioner Compressor at Varied Operating Conditions

Abstract:

This paper mainly introduces a novel linear air conditioner compressor which is driven by the linear oscillatory motor with two divided moving body, of which the Cylinder-piston assembly presents symmetrical distribution along the axial direction. The compressor dynamics equations were built and solved numerically with the fourth order Runge-Kutta method. in the meantime, this paper emphatically analyzes the influence of those factors, such as the intake pressure, the exhaust pressure, the suction gas superheat, the cooling degree, on the compressor performance at varied operating conditions. These works shows that improving the suction gas pressure and reducing the exhuast pressure can help to increase the refrigeration capacity and energy efficiency ratio of the air conditioner compressor. Those analysis results provide theory foundation for design,development, and engineering application of this linear air-conditioner compressor.
