Why does a CO2 compressor need to be equipped with a balance section? :o What is the function? ?
, balance the force on the compressor crankshaft and protect the crankshaft
The poster is talking about centrifugal type! The balance tube is used to eliminate or reduce axial force. Other measures to eliminate or reduce the axial force of high-speed centrifugal pumps and centrifugal compressors: (1) Install the impeller of the multi-stage pump symmetrically. (2) Install the balance plate. (3) Use double suction impeller. (4) Open a balance hole in the impeller of the single-stage pump.
It's very simple. As the name suggests, it is of course the function of balancing the axial force.
Maybe it's to balance the air pressure.
How to balance? Can any expert tell me in detail? Is the balance plate connected to the direct thrust bearing?
