다단 왕복동 공기압축기의 평형추 설계

Modern reciprocating air compressors have tendency to a multi-stage W-type or V-type cylinder arrangement for the purpose of high outlet pressure, compactness and low vibration and noise. A valid counter weight calculation method using the complex expression is proposed for reducing the inertia forces of the compressor. Counter weight removes only 1st forward whirl component. Counter weight formulations are applied to the six various compressor structures which are (a) 1 cylinder single-throw crank shaft, (b) 2 cylinder single-throw crank shaft, (c) 2 cylinder double-throw crank shaft, (d) 3 cylinder single-throw crank shaft, (e) 4 cylinder single-throw crank shaft, and (f) 4 cylinder double-throw crank shaft. The improvement of performance is verified through available vibration test.
