Finite element modeling of a refrigeration compressor for noise prediction applications

The study involves the development of a finite element model of a hermetic reciprocating compressor for noise prediction applications. Inherent difficulties in developing the finite element model of a complicated structure are discussed and appropriate modeling strategies are evolved. The developmen...
