Abstract

This paper examines the use of various types of cooling liquids in a two-cylinder single-stage piston hybrid power machine with fluid flow due to vacuum at suction. Liquids with various basic thermal properties were used as working fluids: distilled water, antifreeze, and transmission oil. Specific heat capacities and dynamic viscosities of these liquids differed from 2 to 10 times. The experimental studies showed that the greatest cooling effect on the cylinder-piston group was observed when using distilled water, and the least — when using transmission oil. The average surface temperature of the working chamber when cooled with water was minimal in the range of 330–340 K. The average surface temperature of the working chamber when cooled with transmission oil was maximum and ranged from 345 to 355 K, i. e. it was about 15 K higher than when cooled with water. The average surface temperature of the working chamber when cooled with antifreeze occupied an intermediate position between the average temperatures of the working chamber when cooled with water and that with transmission oil and was in the range of 335–345 K, i. e. about 5 K higher than when cooled with water.
