The present document is aimed to propose a suitable thermal model for the cooling down process of a one piston air cooled reciprocating compressor. In order to achieve this, a thermographic camera is used to record the temperature of different measuring points throughout different operating conditions. This data is later analyzed, with statistical tools and graphical visualization. The thermal phenomena present in the thermal process is characterized according to the compressors' geometry. Finally, using the analysis and taking into consideration the thermal phenomena the optimal thermal model is selected. This paper belongs to a bigger project and the last step is to simulate the compressor and the accuracy of the proposed model.
