I would like to ask my fellow Haichuan users about the power issue of reciprocating compressors
Thread Content
Question: When the exhaust pressure of a reciprocating compressor remains constant, does the shaft power of the compressor increase or decrease as the inlet pressure rises? Thank you!
Why does the engine sound seem to become deeper and the engine load increase significantly as the intake pressure rises?
As the intake pressure increases, the compressor’s exhaust volume rises, resulting in an increased load on the compressor; pay attention to the current level
Imagine that if the inlet pressure reaches a certain value, then, with the flow rate remaining constant, well, in an extreme case, an increase in inlet pressure leads to an increase in output pressure; in that situation, your compressor would function as a generator :)
