Summary

To compress gases up to 10.0 MPa and higher, diaphragm and multistage reciprocating compressor units are used. They are heavy, massive and complicated. The results of analyzing laboratory examples of slow-speed long-stroke stages of reciprocating compressors while gas pressurizing up to such pressure have shown the possibility of solving the problems mentioned. Such stages differ from others, that is why we cannot use common design methods in this case. The performance design method for slow-speed long-stroke compressor stages with a discharge pressure of up to 10.0 MPa is based on the well-known principles of schematization of operating processes and distribution of performance losses. With regard to the experimental studies results (indicator and temperature diagrams, integral characteristics) we have found: the volumetric efficiency, which characterizes the ratio between real and theoretical compressor performance, its main components: the volume coefficient, the pressure coefficient, the temperature coefficient, and the leakage coefficient. Dependences are obtained for calculating these coefficients, which differ significantly from the known dependences for calculating high-speed compressor stages. The analysis of the influence of various factors on the performance losses of low-capacity long-stroke compressor stages of medium and high pressure revealed that the gaps in the working chamber have the maximum impact on the performance losses, the leakage coefficient significantly depending on the discharge pressure change. The volume coefficient has much less impact due to the increased stroke-to-diameter ratio of the piston, which provides a small amount of relative dead volume. The developed method can be used for preliminary calculation of compressor stages of the considered type.
