How to determine the process design parameters for the centrifugal compressors of circulating hydrogen in hydrogenation units
Thread Content
When designing the centrifugal compressors for residue hydrogenation and hydrocracking, how should the design parameters be determined? Parameters such as flow rate, inlet and outlet pressures, and molecular weight need to be considered, as well as any special operating conditions. I would appreciate guidance from experts
That’s a bit too general. Which compressor for hydrogenation (new hydrogen? Follow the hydrogen? ), the operating pressure for hydrogenation, as well as the operating conditions of both units – what do you all think about this?
The centrifugal compressor is a cycle hydrogen compressor, and its operating conditions include SOR, EOR, nitrogen, hydrogen, low molecular weight, high molecular weight, and high pressure difference. What operating conditions and process parameters should be used as the basis for designing and selecting the appropriate rated operating conditions? What tasks do compressor manufacturers carry out for the other operating conditions?
