Working principle of anti-surge device in air compressor

Working principle of anti-surge device in air compressor
Nov 09, 2021
Author: DEAR AST

Surge is a common fault of air compressor, so air compressor is equipped with anti surge device.

When the output pressure of the air compressor is fixed and the flow rate is reduced to a certain value, the surge will occur, which is mainly manifested as the pressure fluctuation and obvious vibration. The surge  inevitably affects the working condition of the air separation unit and the service life of the air compressor. In order to prevent the occurrence of surge, it is necessary to control the flow of the air compressor not to enter the surge area, so the function of the anti surge system  automatically opens the vent valve or the bypass valve returning to the inlet to increase the flow of the air compressor when the flow of the air compressor is reduced to a certain safety limit.

Shell and tube air separation heat exchanger is the most representative wall heat exchanger. It has a long history of application and is still dominant in all heat exchangers. Shell and tube heat exchanger is mainly composed of shell, tube bundle, tube sheet and head. Most of the shell is round, and there are parallel tube bundles inside. Both ends of the tube bundle are fixed on the tube plate. In shell and tube heat exchanger, there are two kinds of fluids for heat exchange. One kind of fluid flows in the tube, and its stroke is called tube side. The other flows outside the tube and its stroke is called shell side. The wall of tube bundle is the heat transfer surface. In order to improve the heat transfer coefficient of the fluid outside the tube, a certain number of transverse baffles are usually installed in the shell. The baffle can not only prevent the short circuit of the fluid and increase the velocity of the fluid, but also force the fluid to flow through the tube bundle man
