Lubrication Quality of Compressor Rolling Bearings with Oil-Refrigerant Mixtures

In refrigerant compressor, rolling bearings are lubricated with a mixture of oil and refrigerant. This has always represented a challenge for the bearing lubrication quality estimation (e.g. kappa or lambda parameters). Even if the dilution rate of the refrigerant is known, the exact effect on the l...
