Case Study regarding the test of the new screw compressor with high delivery pressure - 45 bara - on the test bench (with air)
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2012, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Screw compressors, which are part of positive displacement compressors, can find an increasing use in gas industry and beyond due to their advantages. Maximal parameters of these devices, done by Comoti under GHH-Rand license stop at a maximum flow of 3000 Nm3/hour and 26 bara discharge pressure. The needs of potential beneficiaries have imposed the necessity to design and manufacture a new family of screw compressors and oil injection able to develop a discharge pressure of 45 bara with flow rates up to 5000 Nm3/hour. This paper presents the design and experimental test phases – for the first screw compressor with discharge of pressure up to 45 bara – CU90 HP. Continue research and development have allowed to this type of screw-compressor – to find a market position, diversifying its size range in the last decade in a manner more explosive, if we refer to other types of compressors.

Trigger event – a key factor in adverse Aircraft/Rotorcraft Pilot Couplings
An important element that interacts unfavorably with pilot and aircraft is the triggering event. Without a trigger event (or a chain of triggering events) A/RPC does not appear. This study presents an overview of diffe...
Static and Dynamic Design Methods for Hybrid Bolted Joints in a Satellite Structure
A detailed analytical design for hybrid (metal-composite) bolted joints in static and dynamic (random vibrations) analysis is presented in this paper. Due to the fact that a space structure must be lighter and stiffened,...
