Effect of impeller geometry on performance characteristics of centrifugal compressor
Centrifugal Compressors play an essential role in oil, gas and petrochemical industries. Their extensive usage is due to their smooth operation and high reliability compared to other other compressor types. One of the main characteristics of these turbomachines is their performance curve, which is an important criterion for selecting the appropriate compressor for a desired working condition. I...
متن کاملImpact of Geometric Scaling on Centrifugal Compressor Performance
Compressor performance for liquefied natural gas (LNG) main refrigeration units is very important due to the direct link between compressor efficiency and LNG production for a fixed amount of power. Dresser-Rand recently designed a series of new stages for the LNG market that provided improved efficiency and a wider range of operation. Industry practice is to rig test new stages prior to applic...
متن کاملCFD Analysis of Off-design Centrifugal Compressor Operation and Performance
This paper presents some of the results from a Master’s thesis research into the performance and operation of a centrifugal compressor at off-design operating conditions using advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques. ANSYS CFX is the CFD solver used in this blind study to evaluate the ability of modern CFD software to predict the performance of centrifugal compressors operating a...
متن کاملPerformance Improvement of R134a Refrigerator Compressor
It will bring about many problems for a Rl2 refrigerator compressor to use Rl34a as refrigerant directly, such as power increasing, capacity dropping, and noise rising up etc. In order to solve these problems, the mathematical model, optimization model and special test system were built up, many improvements were made by means of the calculating and the testing results. Finally, the performance...
متن کاملA Study on the Performance Improvement of a Rotary Compressor
Of many elements influencing the performance of a rotary compressor, the valve system plays an important role. In order to evaluate the performance, some basic experimental studies were made on the discharge coefficients and the proper dimensions of the valve system. Also, since the valve systems have previously been swdied by using rather simplified models, some effort' were made in this study...
