Advantages and disadvantages of the accumulator of small air separation unit

The accumulator is a heat exchanger that transfers hot and cold airflow through a filler as a medium. When the cold airflow passes through the accumulator, the cold is stored in the filler and the airflow is heated, and when the hot airflow passes through the accumulator, the airflow takes the cold from the filler. It has the advantage of being simple in structure, low resistance and not easily blocked. The disadvantages are high switching losses, mutual contamination during switching and reduced purity. The airflow impact causes abrasion of the seasoning and its powder is easily carried intosmall air separation unit.

The reason why Dear Air Separation has such strong R&D strength and advanced technology in line with international standards is due to our in-depth cooperation with well-known institutions at home and abroad, such as the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Japan's Dayang Institute of Nitric Acid Research and Tianjin University, which has led to rapid development in process design, manufacturing, installation and commissioning.6

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
