Description
Summary:The study proposes a new 0D thermodynamic model for the fast and simple evaluation of Liquid Piston compressors whose geometry and operation are determined by large number of parameters. With the proposed model, the evaluation of the parameters becomes easier, more dependencies are found and the understanding of the influences of parameter changes is deepened. Therefore, optimal designs for the mentioned machines can be created and tested experimentally. During the study, the model was validated with experimental and CFD data, and the results showed good agreement. It was found that evaluation criteria need to be defined for each set of geometric and operational parameters in order to compare the designs.
