Abstract: A new type of variable thickness scroll compressor line composed of circular involutes with different base circle radii is proposed, which is composed of a circular involute I+ circular involute II+ circular involute I. The method of generating the profile is discussed, the general equations of the profile are given, and a series of geometric models of the circular involute variable thickness scroll compressor are established. Aiming at the established geometric model, the influence of the control coefficients θ, φ* and Ror on the geometric performance of the variable thickness scroll compressor is analyzed. Based on the circular involute Ⅰ, a geometric model of variable thickness scroll compressors with circular involute Ⅰ + higher-order curve + circular involute Ⅰ is constructed, and the geometric performance of two types of variable thickness scroll compressors is comprehensively analyzed. The results show that:θ taking the median value θM,φ* taking the value of φend-2(n1+1)∏, and Ror taking the larger, the corresponding geometric performance is better. Higher-order curve variable thickness scroll compressors are similar to the circular involute variable thickness scroll compressors corresponding to the median value θM, and can be substituted for each other.A new type of variable thickness scroll compressor line composed of circular involutes with different base circle radii is proposed, which is composed of a circular involute I+ circular involute II+ circular involute I.
