Abstract
Importance is demonstrated for the setting up of efficient compressors for heat pumps and refrigeration equipment. Basic relationships are examined that allow one to determine the main compressor parameters: transfer coefficients, energy efficiency, work done and flow rate on using various working bodies (air and freon). With a transfer to freon, the transfer coefficient is reduced by 10–15%, while the efficiency and effective power are almost independent of the working body. This means that general use can be made of experience accumulated with air compressors in order to upgrade freon ones.
