Performance Evaluation of an Air-Conditioning Compressor Part II: Volute Flow Predictions

A numerical method that solves the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations is used to study an inefficient component of a shipboard air-conditioning HCFC-124 compressor system. This high-loss component of the centrifugal compressor was identified as the volute through a series of measurements give...
