Abstract:
A centrifugal compressor for compressing a refrigerant vapour in a refrigeration cycle. The compressor comprises an impeller drive shaft supported by first and second radial bearings for rotation within the compressor housing and an impeller assembly including at least one centrifugal impeller wheel mounted on the impeller drive shaft to rotate with the impeller drive shaft. The first and second radial bearings are hydrodynamic fluid bearings in which the bearing fluid is the refrigerant vapour. The compressor further comprises a conduit for supplying a portion of the refrigerant vapour from the impeller assembly to the first and second fluid bearings.

Claim (Index 5):
A centrifugal vapour compressor according to  claim 4 , wherein the sensor is a sensor to detect reverse rotation of the impeller drive shaft.
