The problem: A piston-type reciprocating compressor has had valve damage, or the valves just are not sealing for some reason. This low-temperature refrigeration system has a thermostatic expansion ...

Combining periodic in-person monitoring with a prognostics method for estimating rotational position from pressure readings enhances the ability to predict and address potential failures in ...

In the refrigeration system, one of the most important components is the compressor. This device has two functions. It first removes vapor from the evaporator to keep its boiling point low. It also ...
