Abstract

A compressor system that includes a compressor (16), a refrigeration system (44), a drive member (18) and a cooling passage (46). The compressor (16) is operable to produce a flow of compressed fluid. The refrigeration system includes an evaporator (38), and a flow of refrigerant passes through the evaporator (38) and is operable to cool the flow of compressed fluid. The drive member (18) is coupled to the compressor (16) and is operable to drive the compressor (16). The cooling passage (46) extends from a point downstream of the evaporator (38) to a point upstream of the compressor (32). At least a portion of the cooling passage (46) is in thermal exchange relationship with the drive member (18).
