Abstract: A centrifugal compressor for a turbocharger includes an inlet-adjustment mechanism in an air inlet for the compressor, operable to move between an open position and a closed position in the air inlet. The inlet-adjustment mechanism includes an axially elongated ring. In the open position, the radially outer surface of the ring is spaced from a tapering inner surface of the air inlet so that air can flow in an annular passage between the tapering surface and the ring. In the closed position, the ring abuts the tapering surface to close off the annular passage, whereby the effective inlet diameter is then defined by the inner diameter of the ring at its trailing edge. Movement of the inlet-adjustment mechanism from the open position to the closed position is effective to shift the compressor's surge line to lower flow rates.

Abstract: A linear compressor employing a piezoelectric actuator operating in resonance at a frequency substantially below its natural resonant frequency, which is usually of the order of 10 kHz. Low frequency resonance operation of the actuator, of the order of 100 Hz., is achieved by incorporating the actuator and its housing with the moving compression piston, such that the moving mass is substantially increased, and by reduction of the effective piezoelectric stiffness using hydraulic amplification of the actuator displacement. Both these procedures result in a reduction of the actuator resonant frequency. The hydraulic amplification is achieved by using a hydraulic chamber with different sized pistons, linking the actuator motion with motion of the actuator housing, to which the compressor piston is attached. The high efficiency achieved and the lack of moving parts or the need for lubricating oil makes the compressor ideal for use in high reliability and high purity applications.
