DOI: 10.25206/2588-0373-2020-4-2-16-26
In this paper, the authors deal with the processes occurring during boiling of two-phase flows in channels, which differ in many
possible regimes, and their analytical description is possible only under strict restrictions within the given regime and the application
of empirical data. An approach is proposed in which it is recommended to use a map of flow regimes (boiling) in coordinates
Ж – lgFrm as an empirical component. The analysis of the process is carried out in the entire range of parameters — mass flow,
temperature and pressure taking into account the change of flow regimes. The analytical dependencies presented form together
a complete mathematical model, which is implemented in the form of a computer program.

Keywords: two-phase flows, in-channel boiling of refrigerants, true volumetric vapor content, flow regimes.

DOI: 10.25206/2588-0373-2020-4-2-27-36
The energy efficiency analysis of the actual thermodynamic cycles of lithium bromide-water absorption refrigeration machines (ABLRM)
with single- and multi-stage processes of absorption and generation and with associated mass flow is carried out. The temperature
influence analysis of the heating and cooling sources on the heat coefficient is performed. Parameters of external sources that allow
implementation of these thermodynamic cycles are determined. Meanwhile, for cycles with two-stage absorption and generation processes,
a heating source with temperature (20–24) °C lower in comparison with the basic single-stage cycle, and for a cycle with three-stage
processes–lower by (27–30) °C is required. It has been established that with the accepted parameters of external sources, the actual
coefficient of performance is within the limits: for a single-stage ABLRM) it is 0,68–0,74, for a two-stage ABLRM, it is 0,36–0,39 and for
a three-stage ABLRM, it is 0,24–0,26.

Keywords: efficiency, actual thermodynamic cycle, lithium bromide-water absorption refrigeration machine (ABLRM), coupled mass flow,
coefficient of performance.

Application of new external cooling cycles in technological scheme of helium extraction
and natural gas liquefaction
DOI: 10.25206/2588-0373-2020-4-2-37-47
The paper presents the results of studying a combination of new technological solutions in the processes of natural gas liquefaction
and helium extraction. The most common and effective way to ensure cooling capacity in the natural gas liquefaction process is to use
a cascade cycle on mixed refrigerant (MFC) as external cooling. The influence of introducing an absorption refrigeration unit on the technological
process has been studied. To extract helium, the combined separation and rectification method is used. The purity of helium obtained
is 50 % (in moles). The running conditions of operation and the corresponding technical characteristics of the devices are presented
and described. The curves of the resulting characteristics of heat exchangers indicate the correctness of the thermohydraulic calculations
performed. The relative value of energy costs for obtaining 1 kg of liquefied natural gas in a technological process using MFC is 0,265 kWh/kg
of LNG introducing an absorption refrigeration unit into the cycle reduces the ratio presented to 0,1849 kWh/kg of LNG. In the process
of extracting helium using an absorption refrigeration unit gives the result of 0,951 and 132,9 kW/kmol of helium respectively. When using
an absorption refrigeration unit, the helium extraction rate and power consumption ratio are 0,951 and 132,9 kW/kmol of helium, respectively.
Application of the exergic analysis methods to the processes under consideration shows that the greatest value of exergic losses relative
to other devices is observed in compressors. A detailed economic analysis has been carried out. It shows that the cost of the product
obtained in the normal MFC cycle and in the MFC cycle using an absorption refrigeration machine is $ 0,1939 and $ 0,2069 per kg of LNG,
respectively. Finally, on the basis of such economic factors as the cost of electricity and the cost of the product, the efficiency
of the new cycle was analyzed.

Keywords: helium recovery, liquefied natural gas, refrigeration cycle, thermal integration of processes, energy efficiency, exergy analysis.

Assessment of simplifying hypotheses adopted for valve leakage modeling /
trans. from Engl. M. A. Fedorova
DOI: 10.25206/2588-0373-2020-4-2-85-95
The reed-type valves employed in refrigeration compressors must provide adequate sealing when closed to avoid leakage of gas
between the compression chamber and the suction and discharge chambers. Recent studies show that valve leakage can considerably
affect the performance of the small reciprocating compressors used for domestic refrigeration. The present paper reports
an investigation on the adequacy of simplifying the hypothesis adopted in the simulation models of valve leakage. The results indicate
that the transient effects related to both the valve deflection and fluid flow are negligible. Also, the ideal gas formulation was found
suitable in some operating conditions found in domestic refrigeration. On the other hand, leakage was found to be overpredicted
by almost 20 % when the reed valve geometry was simplified to a circular plate in order to reduce the computational processing cost.

Keywords: reciprocating refrigeration compressor, valve, overflow, mathematical model, numerical experiment, verification.

DOI: 10.25206/2588-0373-2020-4-2-96-103
Low energy consuming products are eternal target of all household appliance manufacturers. To acquire desired energy index,
high efficiency variable capacity compressors have started to be used widely on refrigerators. Reed valves and valve plate designs
are the most critical issues in the development of reciprocating compressors in terms of coefficient of performance (COP). The stiffness
of the reed valves and the port geometries play an important role on reducing the losses at various speeds and operating conditions.
In the last decade, Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) method has started to be used in order to investigate valve dynamics. Because
of the complexity and high computational cost of FSI method, system simulation tools are still preferred for faster and simpler solutions.
In-house developed simulation tool uses flow and force coefficients to calculate valve dynamics and mass flow rate. Those are calculated
with the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analyses with respect to the valve lift. In the present study, flow and force coefficients
at different piston positions were investigated. Piston pin which is used to reduce dead volume was also considered as a parameter.
CFD calculations were established for steady state conditions at different valve positions with Ansys Fluent. The calculated flow
and force coefficients were implemented into the simulation tool and the effect of piston position was presented in terms of COP,
cooling capacity and compared with the experimental results.

Keywords: reciprocating refrigeration compressor, valves, pressure coefficient, flow coefficient, CFD analysis, simulation model,
experiment, verification.

in piston low-speed compressor stage
DOI: 10.25206/2588-0373-2020-4-2-104-110
Experimental studies of dynamics of the locking element of self-acting valve with elastomeric elements of slow-moving long-stroke
stages makes it possible for the first time to obtain a diagram of motion of the valve plate for the compressor units under consideration.
The main principal result of the dynamic analysis of the valve is the absence of rebounds from the seat and the lift limiter during motion
of the locking element. The data obtained in the future can be used to develop and verify the methodology for calculating such valves.

Keywords: slow-speed long-stroke stage, self-acting valves, valve motion diagram, experimental studies.

Determination of temperature mode of rotary bearings of gas turbine engine with air
and fuel lubrication system
DOI: 10.25206/2588-0373-2020-4-2-117-128
The article is devoted to the problem of choosing the optimal parameters of the air-fuel mixture in gas turbine engines (GTE)
with the air-fuel lubrication system. Currently, determining the optimal parameters of the air-fuel mixture is significantly complicated
by the inability to calculate the temperature mode of the bearings. The main specific characteristics of the gas turbine engine significantly
depend on the amount of air and fuel taken fr om the flow part and the fuel line of the engine. Therefore, determining the dependence
of the bearing temperature on their operating conditions (parameters of the air-fuel mixture and operating modes) is an urgent task. The purpose  
of this work is to develop a method for determining the temperature of a bearing that is lubricated and cooled by an air-fuel mixture.
The paper analyzes the thermal state of bearings installed in the rotor supports of a gas turbine engine with an air-fuel lubrication system.
On the basis of the test results of hybrid ball radial thrust bearings 45-126205РЯ the dependences of the friction moment and the coefficient
of convective heat transfer on the parameters of the air-fuel mixture and operating modes are determined. A method for calculating
the temperature of a bearing that is lubricated and cooled by an air-fuel mixture has been developed. The use of the obtained results
in the design of promising short-life gas turbine engines with air-fuel lubrication system will lead to improved engine performance
and will contribute to expanding the scope of its application.

Keywords: gas turbine engine, air-fuel mixture, lubrication system, method, bearing temperature.
