Vapor compressor airflow issue
Thread Content
Our company’s flash vapor compressors are of the reciprocating type; when the load is less than half, the gas production volume is already more than half of that at full load, and exhaust occurs in such cases. If the load increases, how can the gas production volume be increased?
Since the inflation volume is only a little over half of full capacity, why release air? If all venting is turned off and there are issues with the outlet temperatures at various stages of the compressor, it may be a problem with the valves of the flash vapor compressor; it is recommended to inspect these valves.
Why empty it? Is there a problem with the compressor itself?
Yeah, the OP, reply! Agree with the view on the second floor.
The flash vapor compressor starts to vent when its load is half of the normal level. Why does it vent? Is it due to high valve temperature or excessive pressure between stages?
