Abstract

<p>There is a growing need for expanding the upper limit of the operating range of compressors for air-conditioning and refrigeration systems. We have two ways to design the upper limit expansion. One is expansion of the stroke volume, which increases the load of the sliding bearing as the compressive load of the refrigerant. The other is increasing maximum rotation speed, which increases the shear heat of the oil film, the viscosity of the refrigerant oil decreases, and the load capacity of the sliding bearing decreases. Incidentally, the refrigerant is dissolved in the refrigerant oil that lubricates the sliding bearing, and the solubility and the dissolving viscosity change depending on the temperature and pressure conditions. It cannot be ignored viscosity changing of refrigerant oil due to friction heat and refrigerant dissolve in high rotation speed and high load range. Therefore, we constructed a thermal fluid lubrication analysis model that captures changes in viscosity due to oil film temperature and solubility, and clarified the influence of frictional heat generation, solubility and viscosity change on sliding bearing characteristics.</p>
