  2. Inverter compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverter_compressor

    In air conditioning, an inverter compressor is a compressor that is operated with an inverter. In the hermetic type, it can either be a scroll or reciprocating compressor . This type of compressor uses a drive to control the compressor motor speed to modulate cooling capacity.

  3. Variable-frequency drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-frequency_drive

    Small variable-frequency drive Chassis of above VFD (cover removed). A variable-frequency drive (VFD, or adjustable-frequency drive, adjustable-speed drive, variable-speed drive, AC drive, micro drive, inverter drive, variable voltage variable frequency drive, or drive) is a type of AC motor drive (system incorporating a motor) that controls speed and torque by varying the frequency of the ...

  4. Variable-speed air compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-speed_air_compressor

    If a variable speed drive compressor operates continuously at full speed, the switching losses of the frequency converter result in a lower energy efficiency than an otherwise identically sized fixed speed compressor. Where demand remains constant within 5–15% of the total free air delivery flow rate, dual-control compressors configured in a ...

  5. Scroll compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scroll_compressor

    Animation of a spinning scroll compressor. Léon Creux first patented a scroll compressor in 1905 in France and the US. [2] Creux invented the compressor as a rotary steam engine concept, but the metal casting technology of the period was not sufficiently advanced to construct a working prototype, since a scroll compressor demands very tight tolerances to function effectively.

  6. Compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor

    2 of these compressors can be mounted on the same shaft to increase capacity and reduce vibration and noise. [14] A design without a spring is known as a swing compressor. [15] In refrigeration and air conditioning, this type of compressor is also known as a rotary compressor, with rotary screw compressors being also known simply as screw ...

  7. Compressor stall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_stall

    Axi-symmetric stall, more commonly known as compressor surge; or pressure surge, is a complete breakdown in compression resulting in a reversal of flow and the violent expulsion of previously compressed air out through the engine intake, due to the compressor's inability to continue working against the already-compressed air behind it.

    The postgame message of “sticking together” from Matt Eberflus following the Chicago Bears' Thanksgiving Day loss to the Detroit Lions reportedly did not go over well with members of the team.

  9. Air compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_compressor

    Air compressor supplies air into a nail gun.. An air compressor is a machine that takes ambient air from the surroundings and discharges it at a higher pressure. It is an application of a gas compressor and a pneumatic device that converts mechanical power (from an electric motor, diesel or gasoline engine, etc.) into potential energy stored in compressed air, which has many uses.
