I've discovered a convenient solution for this issue by utilizing manufacturer product selection tools. Certain manufacturers offer tools that allow you to input specific data conditions, helping you identify the suitable compressor. Additionally, these tools provide performance data in either tabular form or as bicubic polynomials. Currently, I make use of two free tools: Coolselector2 from DANFOSS (Fig.1) and BITZER Software from BITZER (Fig.2).
If you have access to performance tabular data, you can perform regression analysis using EXCEL, although it requires additional effort (Fig.3).
