Desired Output (Pressures)

[mrashoori]

Hello,

I am working on simulating a scroll compressor for which we have the CAD model. The compressor features 4 pairs of symmetrical chambers. My goal is to first obtain the chamber pressures from PDSim and then use these results in an Ansys simulation.

Simulation Inputs:

Working Medium: Propane
Intake Saturation Temperature: 10°C → P_sat = 6.37 bar
Superheating Temp: 5K
Outlet Saturation Temperature: 60°C → P_sat = 21 bar
I have already provided the relevant input parameters to PDSim and attached an Excel file containing the output pressures.

I need clarification on which columns of pressure data should be used for the Ansys simulation. Specifically, I would like to determine the pressure values for each chamber throughout the compression process.

Your guidance on this would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
MR Ashoori

The output gives the pressures for the chambers s1, s2, ... as a function of crank angle. You then need to figure out how those pressures map to your simulation. What are you putting into your ANSYS sim?
