Forms of reciprocating compressor cylinders

This post was last edited by Wolframs on 2017-12-28 at 12:52. As shown in the diagram, what is the working principle of a stepped-cylinder? For example, in the stepped-cylinder configuration shown in the first diagram, does the gas discharged from the left cylinder during exhaust enter the working chamber on the right side for the second stage of compression? Also, regarding the first cylinder in the diagram of Chapter 2, its two working chambers perform intake and exhaust simultaneously; how is differential compression achieved in this case? Thank you all

At each stage, intake and exhaust occur simultaneously; the exhaust gas enters the exhaust buffer first, then moves on to the intake buffer of the next stage before entering the cylinder for compression. It does not move directly from left to right or from right to left; instead, it passes through buffers and valves to reach the next cylinder. What materials are you referring to? Is there an exam coming up? You can understand that the cylinder diameters at both ends of the piston are not the same.
I get it roughly; just like the double-acting cylinder in the first diagram, it’s also possible to use buffers to enable two-stage compression, right? For example, the left side represents the first stage and the right side the second stage?
Grade difference can be understood as a series connection of 2 cylinders (pistons). First: it does not mean that the two are in a directly connected hierarchical relationship. Second: As mentioned above, each stage also needs to be cooled before entering the gas storage tank, and there is no strict requirement for a corresponding relationship between the intake and exhaust processes between the two cylinders of adjacent stages.
