4.1 Introduction
This chapter demonstrates the scope of the method developed for the three-dimensional analysis of a screw compressor. The CFD package used in this case was COMET developed by ICCM GmbH Hamburg, today a part of CD-Adapco. The analysis of the flow and performance characteristics of a number of types of screw machines is performed to demonstrate a variety of parameters used for grid generation and calculation.
The first example is concerned with a dry air screw compressor. A common compressor casing is used with two alternative pairs of rotors. The rotors have identical overall geometric properties but different lobe profiles. The application of the adaptation technique enables convenient grid generation for geometrically different rotors. The results obtained by three dimensional modelling are compared with those derived from a one-dimensional model, previously verified by comparison with experimental data..The relative advantages of each rotor profile are demonstrated.
The second example shows the application of three dimensional flow analysis to the simulation of an oil injected air compressor. The results, thus obtained, are compared with test results obtained by the authors from a compressor and test rig, designed and built at City University. They are presented in the form of both integral parameters and a p-indicator diagram. Calculations based on the assumptions of the laminar flow are compared to those of turbulent flow. The effect of grid size on the results is also considered and shown here.
The third example gives the analysis of an oil injected compressor in an ammonia refrigeration plant.This utilises the real fluid property subroutines in the process calculations and demonstrates the blow hole area and the leakage flow through the compressor clearances.
