Optimization of the operation of the compressor diaphragm unit pumping gas and liquid
in rocket complexes by means of a pressure jump calculation program
DOI: 10.25206/2588-0373-2022-6-3-9-16
The issue of increasing the service life of the membrane in a diaphragm-plunger compressor is considered. It is found
that the uniform distribution of holes in the substrate for the supply of oil to one cavity and gas to the other cavity, which
are located between the membrane and the substrates, causes a wavelike movement of the membrane. It is shown
which process causes the occurrence of pressure surges that shorten the life of the mekmbran6a to destruction.
Theoretically and experimentally, the optimal arrangement of holes in the substrates has been found to reduce pressure
surges and increase the service life of the membrane without destruction.

Keywords: diaphragm-plunger compressor, resource, membrane, substrate, distribution disk, holes.

DOI: 10.25206/2588-0373-2022-6-3-17-23
A mathematical model of thermodynamic processes occurring in the arcjet thruster device with using argon for arcjet
working process carring out. A comparative analysis of the results of experimental data with theoretical data has been
carried out. The purpose of the study is to develop a mathematical model of thermodynamic processes in the arcjet
thruster device and simulate the interaction of argon with arc discharge plasma. The comparative analysis of the
calculated parameters, thanks to the proximity of electron temperature values with the previously experimentally
obtained under the static state in the arcjet thruster device, confirms the reliability of the presented mathematical
model of plasma processes and the need for its improvement.

Keywords: arcjet plasma thruster, gas and electron temperature, thermal equilibrium, specific impulse, argon plasma,
thermal model arcjet plasma thruster.

Scientific and technological prerequisites for improvement and industrial development

DOI: 10.25206/2588-0373-2022-6-3-24-39
An overview analysis of research and development in the field of air and refrigeration low-flow compressors based on
low-speed long-stroke piston stages is presented and an assessment of scientific and technological prerequisites for
improving their energy efficiency and competitiveness is carried out. Two promising directions are considered in which
such compressors can find effective application: increasing the gas pressure from atmospheric pressure to medium and
high pressures; implementation of combined processes of compression and condensation of refrigerants in the working
chamber of the stage. A number of scientific problems have been proposed and substantiated, the solution of which will
make it possible to create competitive compressor units applicable in refrigeration and cryogenic engineering,
thermostatting and life support systems, medicine and pharmaceuticals, petrochemical and oil and gas industries, small-
scale energy, transport.

Keywords: low-flow compressor, piston low-speed long-stroke stage, work processes, medium and high discharge
pressure, «quasi-isothermal» compression, air, refrigerant, refrigeration cycle, compression in the area of wet steam.

The analysis of the effect of high-speed ammonia low-speed compressor stage on the
processes of reverse expansion and suction in wet steam region
DOI: 10.25206/2588-0373-2022-6-3-49-57
The paper presents the analysis of influence of the method of calculating the heat transfer coefficient on mathematical
modeling of the process of reverse expansion of ammonia in the working chamber of the reciprocating compressor
stage (in the area of wet steam). Alternative variants of film and drip schematization of the heat exchange process
are considered. The mathematical model is based on the equations of the first law of thermodynamics for a body of
variable mass, the equation of state of a real gas, the Clapeyron–Clausius and Newton–Richman equations. Based
on the results of the computational and parametric analysis, the applicability of known methods for calculating the
heat transfer coefficient to the object under consideration is evaluated.

Keywords: ammonia, wet steam, superheated steam, reverse expansion process, mathematical model, heat transfer
coefficient, film schematization, drip schematization.

Selection the method of natural gas preparation for transportation through main
gas pipelines
DOI: 10.25206/2588-0373-2022-6-3-58-65
When designing natural gas drying equipment, the possibility of implementing an integrated approach to determine the
rational technical and economic indicators of the technological devices under consideration is of great importance. This
makes it possible to achieve maximum energy efficiency from the operated equipment for each specific field. One of the
important tasks to be solved in the development of gas fields is the choice of a method and appropriate technological
equipment according to a variety of criteria, including operating costs and the cost of devices, plant performance, metal
consumption, replicability of the technology in question, etc. One of the ways to solve such a problem is the application
of mathematical methods of system analysis in complex decision-making problems, in particular, the method of analyzing
hierarchies.

Keywords: natural gas drying, absorption, low-temperature separation, membranes, hierarchy analysis methods.

A study on the kinematics of a new Schukey-type rotary
compressor /
 trans. from Engl. M. A. Fedorova
DOI: 10.25206/2588-0373-2022-6-3-66-75
A new type of rotary compressor, called «rotary-chamber compressor», consists of two interlocking rotors with 4 wings
each, that perform non-uniform rotary movements. Both rotors have the same direction of rotation, while one rotor is
accelerating, the other rotor is retarding. After surpassing a specific mark, the sequence changes and the leading rotor
begins to retard and vice versa. Due to the resulting relative phase difference, the volume between the two wings is
changing periodically, which allows pulsating working chambers. The technology was first introduced by its founder
Jürgen Schukey in 1987. Since then, no further development on this machine is known to us except our own. In this
contribution, a study on the kinematics of the rotary-chamber-compressor is presented. Initial studies have shown that
changes in the kinematics of the rotors will have a direct influence on the thermodynamical variables, which, if
optimized, can lead to an increased performance of the machine. Therefore, a mathematical model has been developed
to obtain the performance parameters from different kinematic concepts by using numerical CFD analysis. Furthermore,
additional optimization possibilities will be listed and discussed.

Keywords: rotary-chamber compressor, gearbox with special toothed gears, non-uniform rotary movements, kinematics,
compression cycle, mathematical model, CFD analysis.
