Influence of Seal Leakage of Centrifugal Compressor on Compressor Performance

Influence of Seal Leakage of Centrifugal Compressor on Compressor Performance
Jan 04, 2023
Author: DEAR AST

The leakage at the wheel cover seal and interstage seal belongs to internal leakage. Serious internal leakage will increase the energy loss of the compressor, reduce the stage efficiency and compressor efficiency, and reduce the air displacement. However, the influence mechanism of the two is also different: the leakage of the wheel cover seal is to make the compressed gas return to the impeller, and then conduct the second stage compression, which mainly increases the total energy consumption of the stage; The leakage of interstage seal is interstage gas channeling, which will increase the low pressure stage ratio and decrease the high pressure stage ratio.

Although the serious leakage of the balance plate seal has little impact on the performance of the compressor, it has a great impact on the safe operation of the centrifugal compressor.

The leakage of shaft seal belongs to external leakage. External leakage refers to the leakage of gas from the seal to the outside of the casing. It goes without saying that serious leakage will directly reduce the discharge of the compressor.

The working pressure of the high-pressure oxygen compressor used for filling bottles is high, and it is easy to cause cylinder burning accidents due to improper operation and management. In order to prevent this kind of accidents from happening, the following matters should be paid attention to when using and maintaining: 1) for the parts of the oxygen compressor, the maintenance tools and the hands of the maintenance personnel must be strictly skim and cleaned, finally, clean the carbon tetrachluene thoroughly. When pulling out the piston for overhaul, special attention should be paid to clear the oil stain at the bottom of the piston rod in case of stain the seal. When the sealer and scraper are worn out, they should be replaced in time to prevent them from being oiled; 2) the distilled water used for lubrication must not be interrupted. Distilled water tank should be more than 2m higher than cylinder head, and water level gauge and dripping device should be easy to monitor. The a...
