Causes and elimination of vibration of piston type oxygen compressor in air separation unit

Generally, the main reason for the vibration of piston type oxygen compressor is the action of alternating load. There are two kinds of alternating loads: one is the unbalanced inertia force, the other is the interference force caused by the strong gas pressure pulse in the gas pipeline caused by the discontinuous gas supply of the compressor.

 

The vibration caused by unbalanced inertia force can be eliminated and reduced from the structure of the machine itself. The specific methods are as follows: reasonably arrange the crank stagger angle; properly select the mass configuration of reciprocating parts. In addition, the basic design and manufacturing process of the compressor should also strictly comply with the technical specifications.

 

For the vibration caused by air flow pressure pulse, a buffer can be installed near the cylinder exhaust pipe nozzle; the appropriate installation position of orifice plate should be selected on the gas flow channel; the shock absorber should be set up, the pipeline should be reasonably arranged and the pipe fulcrum should be selected to avoid right angle turning.

The air separation cold box is filled with insulation material, generally pearlite, and the pearlite particles are filled with air. After the operation of the air separation unit, the temperature of the insulation material and the air will decrease, and the volume will decrease. At this time, if the cold box is well sealed, negative pressure will be formed in the cold box, and the cold box may be compressed under the effect of internal and external pressure difference. If the cold box is not well sealed, the moisture outside the cold box will enter the cold box, making the insulation material damp, and the cold loss of the unit will be greatly increased. In order to prevent the cold box from being compressed and the thermal insulation material from becoming damp, dry nitrogen or crude nitrogen is usually filled into the cold box after the unit is running to keep the cold box at slightly positive pressure.
