Summary

FEATURES OF THE NATURAL GAS TURBOEXPANDER, ESPECIALLY MEDIUM PRESSURE AND SMALL CAPACITY MACHINES, WERE OBSERVED AFTER A LONG PERIOD OF OPERATIONAL TEST IN A NATURAL GAS SEPARATION PLANT. THE INFLUENCE OF SOLID PARTICLES AND LIQUID DROPLETS MIXED IN THE GAS ON THE PERFORMANCE OF THE MACHINE IS ANALYZED ACCORDING TO THE RESULTS OF THE TEST. MOREOVER, A PRELIMINARY STUDY IS MADE ON THE PHENOMENA AND MECHANISM OF THE FLOW PASSAGE EROSION CAUSED BY THE PARTICLES AND DROPLETS, AND SOME TENTATIVE IDEAS ARE ALSO PUT FORWARD FOR MODIFYING THE SHAPES OF THE TURBINE BLADES INVOLVED WITH CONDENSING LIQUIDS.
