The inverter rotary compressor discharges refrigerant and compressor oil in air-conditioning systems. The compressor oil which discharged form compressor decreases the efficiency of heat exchanger and affects the compressor operation. Recently, several studies are in progress for reducing the compressor oil. Before the reduction of compressor oil discharge rate, the quantitative measurement and evaluation method are required. In order to cope with this requirement we have developed the measurement technic of oil discharge rate. The reliability assessment was carried out approximately 0.1% of the errors with compressor performance indicators. The acceptable errors were to ensure the reliability of measurement technic. In the experiment results at several conditions, The oil discharge rate of heating operation has been confirmed average 3.7 times more than cooling operation. In this study the evaluation method and the experimental results of oil discharge rate in air-conditioning systems are presented with various operating conditions.

The reduction of chopping noise generated from inverter compressor and the piping design reducing vibration are the most important items in the quality of air conditioner. The chopping noise is identified by the study of the relationship between carrier frequency and natural frequency of the compressor shell. The high carrier frequency is the key factor in reduction of carrier noise. To keep the natural frequencies of the system as far as away from the operating frequencies appears to be the most important factor in the design of piping system.

A reciprocating compressor with a rotary motor used in a refrigerator has low efficiency, because it has the large mechanical losses due to the crank mechanism. The linear compressor which has the free piston driven by a linear motor, was developed to increase the efficiency of compressor by reducing mechanical losses. The TRIAC has been widely used for controlling the piston, because it has simple structure. However, as it is able to control only stator voltage, it is very difficult to obtain good efficiency. Recently, PWM inverter which is able to control the voltage as well as the frequency, is applied to linear compressor drive system to overcome above problem. In this paper, the variations for efficiency and power factor of linear compressor are investigated by changing both the mechanical resonant frequency and electrical resonant frequency of linear compressor, and also the inverter frequency The optimum relationships between both resonant frequencies and the inverter frequency is derived in order to obtain the maximum efficiency and also good power factor.

Air-source heat pumps are widely used in residential heating systems. However, the decrease in the capacity of the heat pump is unavoidable when operating at very low and high ambient temperatures. The vapor injection technique is considered a promising technology to overcome this problem. Recent research on vapor injection cycles have mainly adopted a scroll compressor with an internal heat exchanger at severe operating conditions. This study measured the COP and EER of a gas injection heat pump using a flash tank with an inverter-driven rotary compressor at severe operating conditions. Compared to non-injection heat pumps, the heating capacity and COP of the gas injection heat pump improved up to 15% and 2.9%, respectively, at outdoor temperatures of $-10^{\circ}C$ to $7^{\circ}C$. The cooling capacity of the gas injection heat pump was 11% higher than the non-injection heat pump at an outdoor temperature of $35^{\circ}C$. At the same time, the EER of the gas injection heat pump was similar to that of the non-injection heat pump.
