Research on dynamic characteristic of compressor RIP under thermal oxygen aging and variable preload conditions

Abstract

The dynamic characteristics of rubber isolation pad (abbreviated as RIP) after service under the high temperature thermal oxygen aging and the variable preloads have preload dependence and thermal oxygen aging dependence, which is a crucial problem for matching the vibration isolation system of air conditioner compressor to reveal the dynamic characteristic mechanism of the RIP with different preloads and thermal oxygen aging conditions. The Peck model is first introduced to characterize the thermal oxygen aging factor, the fractional derivative Kelvin-Voigt thermal oxygen aging-perturbation model (FDKVTPM) and the Coulomb frictional thermal oxygen aging-perturbation model (CFTPM) are established to describe the frequency dependence and the amplitude dependence, respectively. The thermal oxygen aging-dynamic characteristic model of the RIP is built by considering the influence of variable preloads, the model parameters under different preloads are further identified, the validity of the model was examined by the experimental data. The concepts of the stiffness transition point (STP) and the stiffness transition frequency (STF) are innovatively proposed to better describe softening effect of the RIP under variable preload and variable amplitude working conditions. The results show that the static stiffness of RIP increases by 20.7%, the dynamic stiffness increases by 9.3%, and the loss factor decreases by 35% after thermal oxygen aging under different preload conditions, which can lay a theoretical foundation for in-depth study of the stiffness matching and optimization of air conditioner compressor with the RIP.
