Abstract

Due to the merit of high efficiency, low noise and vibration, scroll compressor has been rapidly developed in recent years. The working process of a scroll compressor is a three-dimensional non-constant compressible viscous flow process. In order to optimize the compressor design for better performance, it is necessary to understand and reveal the detailed mechanism of the unsteady flow inside a scroll compressor. In this paper, a three-dimensional flow-field model of scroll compressor is established. Non-stationary transient simulation of the flow field is carried out by using a combination of dynamic grid and User-Defined-Files. The distribution of temperature, pressure and velocity within the flow field of the work gas under different operating conditions were obtained. In this paper, the flow phenomenon of gas reflux at the suction and discharge ports and its effect on the performance of the scroll compressor was analysed.
