Screw compressor is a positive displacement compressor from the mechanical type, which is composed of the driving rotor and driven rotor, the main body and a pair of synchronous gears. Therefore, the common faults of screw compressor are as follows:

 

1.The bearing is burnt out. Because of the foreign matter in the oil system, the oil pressure and the quality of the oil are reduced, resulting in the bearing burning out. The main treatment methods are: check the oil supply system; clean the oil filter and the cooling pipe of the oil cooler; check and adjust the oil pressure regulating valve; test the oil quality, and replace the oil when it is not good; check and deal with the oil leakage points.

 

2.The rotor is burnt out. When foreign matters enter into the compressed medium system, the temperature of the rotor rises, the temperature of the cooling oil of the rotor increases due to the high temperature of the inhaled medium, and the compression ratio increases, which may cause the rotor to burn out. The main treatment methods are: check the air system; clean the intercooler; check the cooling water volume of the cooler and water jacket; clean the oil cooler; check the nozzle and channel of the oil cooler.

 

3.Abnormal vibration and sound. Vibration and abnormal sound may be caused by shaft shaking or looseconnection. Handling methods usually require disassembly inspection.

The liquefaction of gases can be divided into forward and reverse cycles. The forward cycle process is the absorption of heat from the higher temperature external heat source and the release of heat to the lower temperature external heat source. The reverse cycle is when the mass draws heat from a lower temperature external heat source and releases it to a higher temperature external heat source. The forward cycle converts heat energy into mechanical energy and the reverse cycle converts mechani...

Distillation is using the different boiling points of the two substances to condense the mixed steam and vaporize the mixed liquid repeatedly to achieve gas separation. For a mixed liquid composed of two substances with different boiling points, when the heat absorption part evaporates, the volatile components will evaporate more, while the mixed steam will give off heat and partially condense, the non volatile components will condense more. If the saturated steam with higher temperature is mixed with the saturated liquid with lower temperature, the steam will release heat and partially condense, and the liquid will absorb heat part of it evaporates. If after a round of partial evaporation and partial condensation, the steam and liquid with higher concentration will contact with the steam and liquid with different temperature respectively, and then partial condensation and partial evaporation will occur again. This process will be repeated for many times, and finally gas separation
