It explains how the oil injected in a twin-screw compressor distributes itself in the compression chambers and how CFD (computational fluid dynamics) were used as part of this research. Case studies, tests on existing rigs and instrumental detail show the effect of using different injection points and how to reduce power losses due to temperature rise.

BESA, on behalf of the Engineering Building Services Skills Authority (EBBSA,) are setting up Sector Groups (SG’s) in occupations within Building Services. The SG’s purpose is to bring employers within specific occupation groups together to determine the roles that exist within that occupational area, thereafter determine a competency framework for these roles. The IOR is pleased to be invited to support this work and to help co-ordinate outputs with its own plans to map skills needs and roles in the RACHP sector.
