The suction and discharge piping diameters of reciprocating compressors are different
Thread Content
The suction and discharge pipelines of a reciprocating compressor have different diameters: the diameter of the primary suction pipeline is the largest, the diameters of the primary discharge pipeline and the secondary suction pipeline are the same, and the diameter of the secondary discharge pipeline is the smallest. Why is this? ?
The path length of the compressed gas becomes relatively smaller.
As the pressure of the compressed gas increases, the distance between the gas molecules decreases, and accordingly the outlet pipe becomes smaller. If it remains the same as the inlet pipe, the pressure of the compressed gas will inevitably drop significantly!
P1*V1=P2*V2: As the exhaust pressure increases, the volume decreases as well!
P1*V1=P2*V2: As the exhaust pressure increases, the volume decreases as well!
Increased pressure leads to reduced volume and a smaller diameter; normal
