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.

Generally, the actual cooling capacity of expander is always less than the theoretical cooling capacity. Under the same inlet and outlet pressure and inlet gas temperature, the lower the efficiency of expander, the smaller the unit refrigerant cooling capacity and the smaller the temperature drop efficiency of expander. The efficiency of expander depends on the size of various losses inside the expander. Due to the existence of various losses, the ability of gas to do external work is reduced in varying degrees. To sum up, the losses mainly include the following aspects: 1. When the air flow passes through the work wheel and the deflector, the loss caused by friction and air flow impact on the runner surface is called flow loss. 2. When the impeller is rotating, the friction heat generated by the gas around the wheel disc will increase the temperature of the gas, which is called friction blast loss. 3. When the gas passes through the deflector, the leakage from the gap bet
