Dual port vapor injected compression: in-system testing versus test stand testing,. and mapping of results
This paper introduces the differences of in-system testing of a dual-port vapor injected compressor as compared to test stand testing and presents the performance results. Single-port vapor injected compression has been studied previously, typically using scroll compressors. Single-port vapor injection employs one port with a single intermediate injection pressure, while dual-port vapor injection uses two ports at different angular locations, leading to two intermediate pressure levels for the injected vapor. The main differences between in-system testing and test stand testing can be found in suction and injection superheat values, discharge temperature, and range of injection flow rates. Dimensionless PI-type mappings are introduced that can be used for system simulation. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
