Abstract
An electric scroll compressor configured to compress a refrigerant for use with a vapor injection system, is provided. The compressor includes refrigerant inlet and outlet ports and a vapor injection port. The housing includes a valve plate having at least one vapor injection channel. A compression device includes a fixed scroll and an orbiting scroll. The orbiting scroll and the fixed scroll form compression chambers for receiving the refrigerant from the intake volume and compressing the refrigerant as the drive shaft is rotated about the center axis. The valve plate includes at least one vapor outlet aperture in communication with the at least one vapor injection channel for allowing vapor to enter a compression chamber formed between the fixed scroll and the orbiting scroll.
