【 摘 要 】

A new multi-chamber rotary compressor (MCRC) has been designed and the simulation result is presented in this paper. MCRC utilizes the space within the cylinder and it has the advantage of being more compact. Mathematical models which include geometrical, thermodynamics, mass flow and discharge valve have been formulated to evaluate the performance of MCRC. Parametric studies have also been carried out to determine the effects of design parameters such as suction and discharge ports size, valve length, valve thickness and valve width on compressor performance. In this paper, mathematical models will be presented and the predictions of the model will be shown and discussed.
