Information

This is a model describing the compression process of a rolling piston type rotary (i.e. rotary) compressor. The model is based on a grey-box approach and, therefore, it inherits from AixLib.Fluid.Movers.Compressors.BaseClasses.PartialCompression. Consequently, the model uses three efficiencies that must be redefined by the User:

• Overall engine efficiency
• Overall isentropic efficiency
• Overall volumetric efficiency
