Electric compressor
The present invention relates to an electric compressor. The electric compressor according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes a rear housing in which a discharging chamber to which a coolant is discharged is formed; an oil separator disposed in the discharging chamber, having a coolant introduction hole through which the coolant is introduced formed therein and disposed to be eccentric to one side of the rear housing; a partitioning wall partitioning an inner region of the discharging chamber into different regions and having communication portions formed at different positions; and a resonance chamber in which introduction and diffusion of the coolant passing through the communication portions are simultaneously performed.
SCROLL COMPRESSOR
A scroll compressor is disclosed. The scroll compressor may include a back pressure hole formed through a non-orbiting scroll and a back pressure chamber assembly such that a compression chamber and a back pressure chamber communicate with each other. A back pressure valve may be disposed inside of the back pressure hole and move along a longitudinal direction of the back pressure hole by a pressure difference between the compression chamber and the back pressure chamber, to vary a flow path area of the back pressure hole. The back pressure valve may include a valve body that extends in an axial direction and a plurality of holes formed through the valve body in the axial direction. With the configuration, pressure pulsation in the back pressure chamber may be suppressed or prevented.
Screw compressor slide valve and screw compressor with gas pulsation attenuation function
A screw compressor slide valve with gas pulsation attenuation function includes valve walls and internal through holes. A screw compressor includes the screw compressor slide valve. A part of exhausted gas of the screw compressor is directly discharged from an exhaust port to an exhaust chamber to form a main exhaust flow channel; another part of the exhausted gas is discharged from the exhaust port into the exhaust chamber after being delayed by the internal through holes, which forms a branched exhaust flow channel. Since the branched exhaust flow channel is longer than the main exhaust flow channel, when the gas pulsation in the branched exhaust flow channel lags behind that in the main exhaust flow channel by 180-degree in phase, two gas pulsations in the two flow channels are offset due to opposite gas pulsation phases, which attenuates the gas pulsation, thereby suppressing induced vibration and noise.
Screw Compressor
A screw compressor for compressing a working medium sucked through a suction opening and discharging the compressed working medium through a delivery opening, wherein the screw compressor includes: a male rotor and a female rotor that rotate while meshing with each other; a casing that houses the male rotor and the female rotor and is provided with a bore which forms a working chamber designed, together with the male rotor and the female rotor, to compress the working medium; a drive unit that rotationally drives at least one of the male rotor and the female rotor; a working chamber closing unit that forms a suction port for sucking the working medium into the working chamber and closes the working chamber when the working chamber reaches a specified capacity; and a suction space that connects the suction opening and the suction port to allow communication therebetween, wherein an open space that connects the suction opening and the suction port to allow communication therebetween is provided between a shaft of the male rotor and a shaft of the female rotor on an opposite side of the male rotor and the female rotor relative to the suction port.
Slide valve for a twin-screw compressor
The present application provides a slide valve, wherein the slide valve is configured to regulate a load of a twin-screw compressor. The slide valve comprises a slide valve body, wherein the slide valve body has a connecting end and a free end, the connecting end is configured to connect to a slide valve connecting rod of the twin-screw compressor, and the slide valve is driven to slide by the slide valve connecting rod. A cavity is formed in the free end of the slide valve body, and the slide valve has a passage configured to fluidly couple the cavity with an external fluid to reduce air flow pulsations on a suction side of the twin-screw compressor and thereby reduce overall air flow pulsations in the twin-screw compressor.
Dynamic variable orifice for compressor pulsation control
A pulsation dampening apparatus for providing a selectively variable orifice size for a reciprocating compressor system includes a rotatable conical cage and a fixed conical cage, the conical cages being aligned along a central axis to form a central cylindrical port. The conical cages each include at least one window or port and have mating contours allowing the conical cages to rotatably slide over one another, allowing their respective ports to be selectively aligned in any configuration to create any desired effective orifice size. In one embodiment, each of the conical cages include a plurality of ports which can be selectively aligned, the relative alignment of the ports determining the effective orifice size of the pulsation dampening apparatus.
Device for recirculating an at least partially gaseous composition containing hydrogen and fuel cell system

The disclosure describes a flow conditioning device for dampening pulses and improving performance of a compressor. In one approach, a diffuser device includes a housing member having a first end and a second end, the housing member coupled to an outlet of a compressor, and a diffuser member disposed within the housing member. The diffuser member is in fluid communication with a working fluid delivered from the compressor, and includes a core member extending along a longitudinal axis of the diffuser member, and a plurality of flutes extending radially from the core member. In some approaches, the plurality of flutes and an inner surface of the housing define a plurality of fluid channels for delivering the working fluid from the first end to the second end of the housing member. In some approaches, the diffuser member is rotatably coupled to the housing member.
SCROLL COMPRESSION DEVICE HAVING A SEALING DEVICE, AND SCROLL COMPRESSOR INCLUDING SUCH A SCROLL COMPRESSION DEVICE
The scroll compression device includes a first scroll element (11) having a first base plate (13) and a first spiral wrap (14); a second scroll element (12) having a second base plate (15) and a second spiral wrap (16), one of the first and second scroll elements (11, 12) being configured to perform an orbiting movement in relation to the other one of the first and second scroll elements, the first and second scroll elements (11, 12) intermeshing with each other and delimiting compression chambers (17); and a sealing device (28) arranged in an end face (19) of the first spiral wrap (14) and having a sealing surface configured to cooperate with the second base plate (15).
