Compressor with fluid cavity for cooling
Abstract:
A compressor may include a shell, a first scroll, and a second scroll. The shell may include a first inlet, a second inlet, and an outlet. The first scroll may include a first end plate and a first spiral wrap. The second scroll may include a second end plate and a second spiral wrap, the first and second spiral wraps cooperating to define a series of moving compression pockets therebetween. The moving compression pockets decrease in volume as the moving compression pockets move from a radially outer position to a radially inner position. The moving compression pockets may receive working fluid from the first inlet at the radially outer position and provide working fluid to the outlet at the radially inner position. The second end plate may include a fluid cavity receiving working fluid from the second inlet and fluidly isolated from working fluid within the moving compression pockets.
