Definitions

  • One of the important tasks of the compressor is to compress the process gas / air for various industrial applications.
  • screw or centrifugal air compressors are being useddepending upon the pressure and flow rate requirements.
  • a screw rotary compressor contains a housing including bore, bearings, low pressure end as inlet and high pressure end with high pressure as outlet.
  • An efficient screw compressor in general generates a pressure of about 5 to 30 bar.
  • the compressor oil in a rotary screw compressor acts as coolant for absorbing compression / frictional heat, seal the rotors, lubricate the moving parts and protect the overall compressor system from rust & corrosion.
  • Energy conservation is the concept used for formulating superior products. As some energy of prime mover in compressor is being used for driving the moving parts against friction, the use of superior lubricant with comparatively lower coefficient of friction may help in energy conservation. Based on this concept, the present work was undertaken in the authors' laboratory.
  • compressor delivers high pressure gas / airiherebv resulting to elevation in working temperature.
  • compressor oil is oxidized as it comes in contact of the hot metal surfaces / hot air or gasin a running compressor.

One of the important tasks of the compressor is to compress the process gas / air for various industrial applications. In this regard, screw or centrifugal air compressors are being useddepending upon the pressure and flow rate requirements.
A screw rotary compressor contains a housing including bore, bearings, low pressure end as inlet and high pressure end with high pressure as outlet. An efficient screw compressor in general generates a pressure of about 5 to 30 bar. The compressor oil in a rotary screw compressor acts as coolant for absorbing compression / frictional heat, seal the rotors, lubricate the moving parts and protect the overall compressor system from rust & corrosion.
Energy conservation is the concept used for formulating superior products. As some energy of prime mover in compressor is being used for driving the moving parts against friction, the use of superior lubricant with comparatively lower coefficient of friction may help in energy conservation. Based on this concept, the present work was undertaken in the authors' laboratory.
In the compression, compressor delivers high pressure gas / airiherebv resulting to elevation in working temperature. During this process, compressor oil is oxidized as it comes in contact of the hot metal surfaces / hot air or gasin a running compressor. The main objective of the present invention is to develop a novel composition of compressor oil with superior energy efficiency and resistance to oxidation ensuring longer useful life in industrial equipments such as rotary screw air compressors.

Phase - 1 : Laboratory Evaluation
The energy efficient air compressor oil (Composition of Example 3 of Table 1A) is evaluated against DIN 51506 VDL (VG 46) specifications. For comparison, genuine compressor oil (VG 46) available from one of the leading compressor manufacturer's OEMs has been chosen as reference oil for generating base line data. In order to confirm the oxidation inhibiting properties of the selected novel additive system, high temperature oxidation tests such as Pneurop Oxidation Test (POT as per DIN 51352 Part 2), Rotating Pressure Vessel Oxidation test (RPVOT as per ASTM D 2272) and IP 280 oxidation tests were conducted on test oils,
Physico-chemical properties:
Table - 2 provides the physico-chemical data on energy efficient (EE) compressor oil (VG 46) vis-a-vis reference oil (VG 46). The kinematic viscosity as determined by ASTM D 445 in mm7s is in accordance with viscosity grade 46 and viscosity index is of 106. The energy efficient lubricant composition has pour point as (-) 27°C which is indicative of its low temperature properties and its suitability for low temperature application. The composition according to the present invention also has low foaming and air release value in comparison to reference oil. The flash point as detemiined by ASTM D 92 is more than 200°C suggesting its suitability for higher discharge temperature application. The composition is having excellent demulsibility characteristics allowing better water separation characteristics. The proposed composition separates water in 15 minutes as measured according to ASTM D 1401. The poor demulsibility of the compressor oil causes sludge, corrosion / rust formation, clogging of the filter, reduced lubricant performances and shortening of oils' life. Performance of Test oils in High temperature Oxidation Tests: Ageing characteristics in presence of iron (III) oxide as per Pneurop oxidation test (POT) is conducted at 200 °C for 24 hours to assess the carbon forming tendency and viscosity percentage change of aged oils under the specified test conditions as per DI N 5 352 Part 2. The aged oils after POT test showed carbon residue formation of 0, 18 % wt and rise in kinematic viscosity @ 40 °C of 1.30% over the reference oil having carbon residue formation of 1.79 % wt and rise in kinematic viscosity @40 °C of 13.7 %, which is indicative of suitability of the energy efficient compressor oil in the extended running operation.
The compressor lubricant composition demonstrates excellent oxidation stability as measured according to ASTM D 2272 with a RPVOT life greater than the 1000 minutes indicating thereby superior oxidation life of the energy efficient compressor oil in comparison to the reference oil. As per IP 280 oxidation procedure the TOP value (total oxidation product, % by mass) of energy efficient compressor oil is 0.076 in comparison to the 0.23 for the reference oil.

Phase - 2: Evaluation in Tribological Tests:
In order to compare the anti-frictional performance of energy efficient compressor oil with that of reference compressor oil, weld load and wear scar dia (WSD) done as per IP 239 & ASTM D 4172 test methods (Table-1A, I B, ! C). Energy efficiency of the energy efficient compressor oil was assessed in the laboratory in SRV test rig. This machine is used to measure the coefficient of friction between oscillating ball on a flat disc in a sliding contact geometry. Reduction in coefficient of friction during the test ran was taken as criteria for energy saving potential. The higher is the reduction in the coefficient of friction, better will be the energy efficiency in the oil. In this screening test @ 200N, 50°C, 50 Hz, 1 mm for 1 hour, energy efficient oil provided reduction in coefficient of friction to the extent of 17 % approximately over the reference compressor oil.
The optical Hi I D apparatus was used to measure EHD film thickness by steel ball on glass disc and friction (traction) coefficient was measured under EHD regime by steel ball on steel disc. The contact of steel ball, on glass disc is coated with silica spacer layer. The load was kept 30N with variable rolling speed of 0 to 4 meter per second with the increment of speed of 100 mm per second for test duration of one hour. The EHD film thickness of the energy efficient compressor oil was more or less similar, however traction coefficient was found comparatively lower than reference oil.
In order to validate the laboratory findings, energy efficientcompressor oil was evaluated in the Screw Air Compressor in comparison to reference oil for the duration of 1000 hours of operation in identical conditions. Details of Single stage Rotary Screw Air Compressor:
Make : Atlas Copco
Model : GA 45
Full load current : 83 amps
Voltage : 415 volts Frequency : 50 Hz
Motor rating : 45 kW
Refrigerated Air Dry : For removal of water from air
Running hours 1000 hours Phase - 3: Field Evaluation:
In order to do a one to one comparison of the energy efficiency of two oils, a compressor of a standard make used in industry was ran under constant duty cycle over a continuous 1000 hour period in a fixed loading cycle to unloading cycle ratio of 2: 1. A loading cycle is when the compressor was compressing the air to the desired pressure, and the unloading cycle is when the compressor was rotating without any compression in progress. This was achieved by continuous forced venting of the air being compressed.
This test was done first over a 1000 Hours period with EE Compressor oil and subsequently with the reference oil. After a 1000 Hour comparison was completed between the two oils, the oils were repeated back to back again over a 1000 hour period to verify the comparison between the oils. The following parameters were logged during this period
1) Energy Consumption: using Electronic Energy meter - to measure
• Cumulative Energy Consumption
• Instantaneous values at specified intervals of time
2) Hour Meter: To measure running hours
The efficiencies in terms of the reduction in power consumed to compress the same quantity of air were taken the criteria. Hence,compressor was operated with fixed ratio of loading and unloading cycles and monitoring was done during the entire test period.
The back to back study conducted each of test oil for the period of 1000 hours in the rotary screw air compressor under identical conditions. The compressor was hooked with electronic energy meter to measure the energy consumption, hour meter to measure the total ranning hours. The Fluke make energy analysis equipment was used for instantaneous energy consumption and traces were taken over 10 minute intervals with high speed data acquisition. The compressor were ran with fixed ratio of loading & unloading cyclesby using constant air venting to enable one to one energy consumption in the identical operating conditions. The ratio of loading & unloading cycles was kept in the ratio of 2 : 1 , The sequence of evaluation was to run the EE compressor oil for 1000 hours and take the energy consumption, run the compressor with reference oil for 1000 hours and measure the energy consumption, run again the EE compressor oil for 1000 hours and take the energy consumption and run hack to back with reference oil for 1000 hours and take the energy consumption. The average energy consumption was recorded for each of the oils. The instantaneous energy consumption at different point of time was also recorded.
The used oil samples were collected for checking the % change in kinematic viscosity, change in total acid number and generation of wear metals.
The summary of energy consumption of energy efficient compressor oils in comparison to the reference oil is provided in the Table - 3;
Table - 3: Power consumptions on reference oil &
