摘要: A centrifugal compressor and a method of operating a centrifugal compressor. The centrifugal compressor includes: an impeller configured to suction a gas to be compressed; a diffuser disposed downstream of the impeller to pressurize the gas, the diffuser comprising a movable ring, a main passage in which the gas flows past the ring, and an openable branch passage; and a circulation loop comprising an inlet and an outlet, the outlet being in communication with an inlet of the impeller; the branch passage is disposed to be in communication with the main passage and the circulation loop when the ring moves into the main passage so that a portion of the gas in the main passage passes through the circulation loop and returns to the impeller so as to be suctioned, and to be closed when the ring is withdrawn from the main passage.

摘要: An illustrative example embodiment of a compressor includes an inlet defining an intake passage, a plurality of lateral inlet guide vanes in the intake passage, and a plurality of medial inlet guide vanes in the intake passage. The lateral guide vanes are selectively oriented to alter an amount of fluid flow through a first, lateral portion of the intake passage. The medial inlet guide vanes are selectively oriented to alter an amount of fluid flow through a second, medial portion of the intake passage.

摘要: A method of operating a heat exchanger system in which a compressor, which is drivable by a motor, is fluidly interposed between an evaporator and a condenser following receipt of a shutdown command is provided. The method includes positioning inlet guide vanes (IGVs) of the compressor in a first position in the event of at least one of a first precondition being in effect and the first and a second precondition both not being in effect. The method further includes positioning the IGVs in a second position in an event the first precondition is not in effect but the second precondition is in effect, ramping a speed of the compressor down until a third precondition takes effect, removing power from the motor and positioning the IGVs in the first position once power is removed from the motor.

摘要: An electric compressor motor includes a stator ring having a plurality of stator winding slots and a plurality of stator windings. Each of said stator windings is received in a stator winding slot of the plurality of stator winding slots. The stator ring also includes a plurality of cooling slots. Each cooling slot in the plurality of coolant slots is defined along an axial length of at least one corresponding stator winding slot of the plurality of stator winding slots such that a shared opening between each stator winding slot and at least one corresponding coolant slot is defined. The cooling slots are configured to allow coolant to directly contact at least one stator winding in the corresponding at least one stator winding slot.

摘要: The present application discloses a diffuser system and a centrifugal compressor comprising the same. The diffuser system comprises: a passage through which a compressed gas is flowable; and a wall defining the passage, the wall comprising a movable part which is driven to enter the passage so as to change a flow area of the passage, wherein the movable part comprises an elastomer configured to expand to guide the flow of the compressed gas when at least a portion of the movable part enters the passage, and to retract when the movable part withdraws from the passage. The diffuser system involved in the present application re-orients a flow route of the compressed gas in the passage.
