The central foundation of the reciprocating compressor is raised, while the foundations of the inlet and outlet pipeline heat exchangers remain unchanged

Does it affect the operating stability of reciprocating compressors? Please discuss this, thank you!

Raising the central foundation of a reciprocating compressor does not directly affect its operational stability. However, this change may have a certain impact on the inlet and outlet pipelines of the compressor, as these pipelines are the key components that connect the compressor to the heat exchanger. If these pipelines experience excessive bending or additional stress as a result, it may affect the operating efficiency of the compressor, thereby impacting its operational stability to some extent. This requires actual evaluation and analysis to determine whether raising the compressor foundation will cause these potential problems. Furthermore, if the compressor foundation is to be raised, safety factors such as equipment stability and operator accessibility also need to be taken into account. If these factors are not given sufficient consideration, they may also indirectly affect the operational stability of the compressor. Therefore, before deciding whether to raise the central foundation of the reciprocating compressor, it is necessary to take multiple factors into consideration and conduct a thorough evaluation. .

It does have an impact. First, there are changes in the stress in the compressor’s outlet pipeline; Second, the pulses of the compressor.

This shouldn’t have any impact, right? As long as the link is a free connection, one that is essentially stress-free, it has no significant impact. Use welding for the final connection. Otherwise, stressed connections are prone to resonance, leading to pipe rupture. For reference.
