Is it because the solubility of the gas decreases that a high water ring temperature in an acetylene water pipe compressor results in a reduced pumping capacity? ? ? ?
As the ambient temperature rises, the gas being pumped expands due to the heat, resulting in a reduced compression volume and lower efficiency; therefore, the amount of gas pumped decreases.
It should be a water ring compressor, not a water pipe compressor. The saturated vapor pressure of water increases as the temperature rises; in other words, when the temperature of the circulating fluid increases, the vacuum level is reduced. With a lower vacuum level, the suction power of the compressor decreases as well.
An increase in the temperature of the water ring in a water ring compressor, along with a decrease in vacuum level, results in a reduction in the pumping capacity.
The key is to identify the cause of the increase in the working fluid temperature, so as to lower its temperature and restore the pumping capacity of the water ring compressor.
Dear friends, I would like to ask what model your water ring compressors are?
I just completed a multiple-choice question like this: (
According to the law of partial pressures, the total pressure of a mixed gas is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of its constituent gases. When the temperature of the circulating water is high, the temperature of water vapor also increases, resulting in a higher partial pressure of water vapor; consequently, the partial pressure of acetylene gas becomes lower. As a result, the compressor’s air delivery capacity is reduced
