Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to a screw compressor used for refrigerant compression in, for example, a refrigerator or an air-conditioning apparatus.
  • variable Vi valve a variable internal-volume-ratio valve
  • the internal volume ratio in the screw compressor is a ratio between a tooth groove space volume at the time of suction and a tooth groove space volume immediately before discharge, and represents a ratio between a volume when the suction is completed and a volume when a discharge port is opened.
  • the variable Vi valve of Patent Literature 1 is controlled such that the difference between an optimum Vi value calculated from a discharge pressure HP and a suction pressure LP and a current Vi value obtained from a position detecting unit decreases. To bring the Vi value close to the optimum Vi value in actual operation, the opening degree of the variable Vi valve is adjusted to minimize motor driving power.
  • the screw compressor has an appropriate compression ratio corresponding to the internal volume ratio, and an inappropriate compression loss is not generated under an operating condition where the compression ratio at the time of actual operation is the appropriate compression ratio.
  • gas is excessively compressed to a pressure equal to or higher than a discharge pressure before the discharge port opens, and excessive compression work is performed.
  • the discharge port opens before the pressure reaches the discharge pressure, causing a state of insufficient compression in which backflow of gas is generated. Both of the operation at the low compression ratio and the operation at the high compression ratio cause a loss of power and cause a decrease in efficiency.
  • Patent Literature 1 a technique has been proposed in which the internal volume ratio is made variable by steplessly adjusting the position of the variable Vi valve to attain the internal volume ratio at which a high compressor efficiency is obtained for a compression ratio (discharge pressure/suction pressure) depending on an operation load.
  • Patent Literature 1 Japanese Patent No. 4147891
  • position control of the variable Vi valve is steplessly performed, and a control amount of the variable Vi valve is calculated from detection results of a discharge pressure, a suction pressure, and a rotation frequency.
