Clearance chamber of reciprocating compressors
Thread Content
Reciprocating compressors: When should one consider using a reciprocating compressor with a clearance chamber?
The technology of clearance chambers is outdated; if possible, opt for stepless adjustment.
Horbig, you deserve it; the investment cost is high, but it can be recovered in no time.
Oh, but in our units there are also compressors that don’t even have a clearance chamber
What I want to ask is when one should consider setting this up
Corresponding to the variable clearance adjustment system, there are two adjustment methods: intake and exhaust
The technology of the clearance chamber is relatively simple; it can be used for flow regulation and offers some energy-saving benefits – it should be opened when it is necessary to reduce the flow rate.
We can create a system with stepless volume adjustment: D:lol
Well, we have those too, but they were added later; before that, there were only clearance cavities
