Some positive displacement (PD) compressors are equipped with automatic discharge valves such as reed valves that open automatically whenever the cavity pressure is slightly larger than the outlet pressure to deal effectively with varying pressure ratio applications. Screw compressors today do not have such valves, resulting in off-design conditions known as the under-compression or over-compression when the cavity pressure at discharge is deviating from the outlet pressure. Compressor efficiency suffers and pulsation/noise becomes worse under these conditions. Some type of controls are desired such as a discharge pulsation dampener or a variable volume ratio (often called variable Vi) slide valve design to lessen or cure the discharge pressure mismatch problems. Injecting gas vapor into a screw compressor cavity during internal compression phase has been known to be beneficial in enhancing compressor performance and has been widely used in HVAC&R industry known as the Economizer. However, the underlining principle of the Economizer has thus far not been explored for optimizing compression schemes of a screw compressor in general. This paper introduces a self-sensing and self-correcting compression process that can be “derived or deduced” from the Perfect Gas Law by optimizing for multiple design criteria such as compressor efficiency, pulsation/noise abatement, and cost and footprint reduction for a screw operating over a wide range of pressures. The scheme, called SECAPT (Shunt Enhanced Compression And Pulsation Trap), is then investigated and optimized numerically by a new CFD code for one industrial case: a bulk truck loading application where compressor pressure varies from no pressure rise to maximum load. The numerical simulations illustrate that SECAPT is tentatively capable of achieving multiple targets as theorized.
