AI Technical Summary
During the start-up and shutdown process of a high-speed centrifugal compressor, the axial load capacity of the thrust foil bearing is relatively small, resulting in a large axial movement of the rotor. This increases the friction between the top foil of the thrust foil bearing and the thrust plate, leading to reduced durability and performance.
A permanent magnet bearing is fitted onto the rotor. The inner magnetic ring of the permanent magnet bearing is fixedly connected to the rotor, and the outer magnetic ring is fixedly connected to the housing. The attraction force of the outer magnetic ring on the inner magnetic ring is used to counteract the axial force of the rotor, reduce the amount of axial movement, and improve axial stability and durability.
By using the attraction force of permanent magnet bearings to counteract axial forces, the axial movement of the rotor is reduced, the degree of friction is decreased, and the durability and performance of thrust foil bearings are improved to meet the load-bearing capacity requirements under different working conditions.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of compressor technology, specifically to a magnetic hybrid bearing centrifugal compressor. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, high-speed centrifugal compressors mostly use foil bearings. Foil bearings include radial foil bearings and thrust foil bearings, with the main function of thrust foil bearings being to counteract the axial force from the rotor.
[0003] When a high-speed centrifugal compressor operates under different pressures, the impeller is affected by varying pressure differentials, causing the rotor's axial force to change accordingly. The axial load capacity of the thrust foil bearing is limited by the operating speed, generally increasing with increasing speed. The pressure differential changes are most drastic during the start-up and shutdown of a high-speed centrifugal compressor, leading to increased variations in the rotor's axial force. During these processes, the thrust foil bearing provides relatively less axial load capacity, resulting in increased axial runout and reduced rotor stability. Furthermore, during startup and shutdown, a gas film has not yet formed between the top foil surface of the thrust foil bearing and the thrust disc, causing intense friction between them. Increased rotor axial runout further exacerbates this friction, further reducing the thrust foil bearing's durability and performance. Summary of the Invention

[0085] In summary, the magnetic hybrid bearing centrifugal compressor 100 provided in this application has a permanent magnet bearing 9 fitted at the second end 102 of the rotor 1. The inner magnetic ring 901 of the permanent magnet bearing 9 is fixedly connected to the rotor 1, and the outer magnetic ring 902 of the permanent magnet bearing 9 is fixedly connected to the housing 3. Thus, during the start-up and stop of the magnetic hybrid bearing centrifugal compressor 100, when the bearing capacity provided by the first thrust foil bearing 6 or the second thrust foil bearing 8 cannot offset the axial force from the rotor 1, the attraction force generated by the outer magnetic ring 902 on the inner magnetic ring 901 can be used to offset the axial force from the rotor 1, reduce the axial movement of the rotor 1, improve the axial stability of the rotor 1, reduce the friction between the top foil of the first thrust foil bearing 6 and the thrust plate 7, and reduce the friction between the top foil of the second thrust foil bearing 8 and the thrust plate 7, thereby improving the durability and performance of the first thrust foil bearing 6 and the second thrust foil bearing 8. Meanwhile, the axial force provided by the permanent magnet bearing 9 is not limited by the rotational speed. It only generates a restoring force when the rotor 1 moves axially away from the equilibrium position. This means that under any operating condition, the permanent magnet bearing 9 can increase the upper limit of the load-bearing capacity of the original first thrust foil bearing 6 or the original second thrust foil bearing 8. This helps to reduce the failure of the first thrust foil bearing 6 or the second thrust foil bearing 8 due to excessive load.
