Flooded ACX ( HP ) -R134a
Chiller
Objectives
1. High COP and get energy saving certificate
2. Competitive cost and high reliability
Good News ( Features)
1. Have original ACXHP as design base
2. Have a prototype chiller
Next Steps
1.Prototype chiller test and review
2. Modification and retest
3.Test result analysis and proposal confirm
4. Summarize and push to the market
7. 7
Larger diameter rotors
Offset centers
Larger motor frame
Rotor profile
Male Drive
Repositioned VI port
Rotor Grinding
13% -17% improvement in efficiency
Now we have to do the same to the 127mm and possibly 110 mm
Updates 192mm- 226mm compared
with 127mm compressors
8. 8
Objectives
Reliability improvement for air cooled compressors
with liquid injection cooling
Good News
1. Adjust liquid injection temp up to 85 deg C
2. Progress achieved after three times tests
Next Steps
1. Re-adjust rotor housing and test
2. Design freeze
Design finalized
Rotor housing optimization
Before After
9. 9
Objectives
Efficiency improvement with optimized Vi
and discharge flowing area
Good News
1. 0.5% improvement achieved for 1227 R134a (Vi)
2. CFD shows potential improvement
Next Steps
1. Test for all models with optimized Vi
2. Test with increased flowing area of stator OD
3. Design freeze
Efficiency improvement for larger
compressors with axial Vi optimization
