Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of centrifugal refrigeration compressors based on air floating bearing technology, in particular to a centrifugal compressor with a built-in interstage flow channel device. Background Art

[0002] Air-floating bearing technology has been widely promoted and applied in the centrifugal compressor industry, forming air-suspended centrifugal compressor products, which have the characteristics of high efficiency, low noise, low vibration, etc., and are widely used in aviation, rail transit, oxygen production and new energy vehicles. In the aviation field, air-suspended centrifugal compressors can provide air sources for the hydraulic, cooling, oxygen production and other systems of aircraft; in the rail transit field, air-suspended centrifugal compressors can provide air sources for brakes, drives, etc. of vehicles such as high-speed trains and subways; in the field of oxygen production, air-suspended centrifugal compressors can compress oxygen into a semi-liquid or liquid state for easy transportation and storage; in the field of new energy vehicles, air-suspended centrifugal compressors can provide hydrogen fuel cells with the oxygen required for electrochemical reactions, ensuring that the stack reaction can proceed smoothly. In recent years, air-suspended centrifugal compressors have also been widely used in the field of air conditioning and refrigeration. For example, South Korea's LG and Gree Group have successively launched air-suspended centrifugal refrigeration compressors based on gas dynamic bearing technology, and Qingdao Haier has launched an air-suspended centrifugal refrigeration compressor based on gas static bearing technology. The basic layout of the appearance structure of this type of product is that the high-speed motor is in the middle, and the first-stage centrifugal compressor and the second-stage centrifugal compressor are arranged back to back at both ends. The high-speed motor and the first-stage centrifugal compressor and the second-stage centrifugal compressor form a whole. An independent interstage pipeline is arranged outside the high-speed motor and its centrifugal compressor to connect the two-stage centrifugal compressor in series, usually connected and fastened by flanges or clamps, so as to achieve the purpose of pressurizing and heating the gas through the two-stage centrifugal compressor in sequence. The connection method of the external interstage pipeline of the two-stage centrifugal compressor may bring the following problems:

[0003] Problem 1: The external interstage pipeline increases the pipeline connection length between the two-stage centrifugal compressor, resulting in increased resistance loss along the airflow and local resistance loss, thus affecting the overall performance of the centrifugal compressor;

[0004] Problem 2: The external interstage pipeline with a certain weight affects the overall center of gravity distribution of the centrifugal compressor, and the center of gravity of the whole machine deviates from the center line of the rotor. Since the centrifugal compressor is a high-speed equipment, the deviation of the center of gravity may cause the vibration of the centrifugal compressor to increase, which may easily cause the bolts at the pipeline connection to loosen or the seals to age, and there is a risk of gas leakage at the connection;

[0005] Question 3: The economizer air supply pipeline of the chiller is usually connected to the external interstage pipeline. The external interstage pipeline will be impacted by the air flow from the air supply pipeline, which may cause resonance between the external interstage pipeline and the centrifugal compressor.

[0006] Question 4: The existence of external interstage pipelines affects the appearance of the centrifugal compressor, occupies more space, increases the cost of the centrifugal compressor, and is inconvenient to assemble and transport. In response to the above-mentioned problems, technical personnel in this field have proposed a new technical idea, which is to arrange the two-stage gas compressor device in the shell, and connect the two-stage gas compressor device in series by building an interstage flow channel under the shell. Since the high-speed motor and the centrifugal compressor are integrated and compactly designed, the space inside the shell is small. The technical solution of independently arranging the interstage flow channel inside the shell has not been found in the centrifugal compressor industry. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of the utility model is to address the defects and shortcomings of the prior art and propose a method for inserting an interstage flow channel below the inside of a shell, which completely solves the related problems caused by the external interstage pipeline connection of a two-stage centrifugal compressor.

[0008] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides a centrifugal compressor with a built-in interstage flow channel device, including a shell, a stator and a rotor with electromagnetic coils built in the shell, a first-stage gas compression device and a second-stage gas compression device are respectively provided at both ends of the shell, the gas compressed by the first-stage gas compression device is connected to the second-stage gas compression device through the interstage flow channel built in the shell, the interstage flow channel and the shell are an integral structure, and valve components and a fourth sensor are respectively arranged on both sides, the valve components are connected with the interstage flow channel and are mainly used for filling or sucking the working fluid of the centrifugal compressor, the fourth sensor is used to detect the pressure and temperature of the gas in the interstage flow channel; the axial ends of the interstage flow channel are respectively used to install the first-stage gas compression device and the second-stage gas compression device, the interstage flow channel is provided with an exhaust port to cooperate with the second-stage gas compression device and the second gas shell to form a second air inlet cavity, the gas in the second air inlet cavity passes through the second-stage gas compression device to form high-pressure and high-temperature gas and is discharged through the exhaust port, the third sensor is arranged on the outside of the exhaust port and is connected to the condenser of the chiller. This type of centrifugal compressor with a built-in interstage flow channel device connects the first-stage gas compression device and the second-stage gas compression device in series through the interstage flow channel built into the shell, thereby improving the pressure ratio of the centrifugal compressor to adapt to a wider range of operating conditions of the chiller, shortening the flow channel connection distance between the first-stage gas compression device and the second-stage gas compression device, reducing the pressure loss of the gas flowing through the interstage flow channel, reducing the vibration of the centrifugal compressor, and improving the overall performance of the centrifugal compression stage. In addition, the built-in interstage flow channel not only has a strong pressure bearing capacity, but also does not require additional joint connectors, thereby avoiding the risk of gas leakage inside the centrifugal compressor. In addition, the gas in the built-in interstage flow channel is usually in an overheated state, which can be used to heat the refrigerant liquid in the shell to prevent liquid from accumulating in the shell before the centrifugal compressor is started. The first-stage gas compression device includes a first impeller connected to one end of the rotor, the first impeller cooperates with the first volute to form a first air inlet chamber, the first air inlet chamber is connected to the first exhaust channel, the first exhaust channel is composed of the first volute channel in the first volute and the first bearing seat channel in the first bearing seat matched therewith, the first exhaust channel is connected to the interstage channel, the first bearing seat cooperates to install the first bearing sleeved with the rotor; a first thrust plate sleeved with the rotor is provided between the first impeller and the first bearing, the first thrust plate is sleeved with the first sealing seat on the outer periphery. The first exhaust channel is a volute-type channel, and the connection between the first exhaust channel and the interstage channel is completed inside the shell, which avoids the possibility of gas leakage caused by the external interstage pipeline connection, and even if leakage occurs, it leaks inside the shell.

[0009] The first air inlet cavity is provided with a first air shell which is a sealed connection shell on the outside. A guide vane adjustment device for controlling the air intake is installed in the first air shell. The guide vane adjustment device is connected to the chiller control system through a terminal board installed outside the first air shell. The terminal board serves as a line connection and sealing function. The guide vane adjustment device is connected to the first air inlet in the first air shell. The rotation opening of the guide vane is comprehensively adjusted according to the working condition of the chiller and the performance of the centrifugal compressor. The first air inlet is connected to the evaporator of the chiller, and a first sensor is arranged on the outside. The first sensor is used to detect the suction temperature and pressure of the centrifugal compressor. The guide vane adjustment device is installed in the first air shell and is completely sealed. Compared with other types of guide vane adjustment devices, it has the characteristics of small space occupation and high adjustment accuracy, and at the same time avoids the gas leakage problem caused by the arrangement of the guide vane adjustment device.

[0010] The secondary gas compression device includes a second impeller connected to the other end of the rotor. The second impeller cooperates with the second volute to form a third air inlet chamber. The third air inlet chamber is connected to the second exhaust flow channel. The second exhaust flow channel is composed of the second volute flow channel in the second volute and the second bearing seat flow channel in the second bearing seat that cooperates with it. The third air inlet chamber is connected to the second air inlet chamber, and the second bearing seat cooperates to install the second bearing that is sleeved on the rotor; a second thrust plate that is sleeved on the rotor is provided between the second impeller and the second bearing, and the outer periphery of the second thrust plate is sleeved on the second sealing seat.

The secondary gas compression device performs secondary compression on the gas compressed by the primary gas compression device, further increasing the pressure and temperature of the compressed gas, and discharges it from the exhaust port to the condenser of the chiller. A third sensor is arranged on one side of the exhaust port to detect the exhaust temperature and pressure of the centrifugal compressor.

[0011] The side of the second air shell is provided with a second air inlet connected to the second air inlet cavity, which is mainly used to inhale the flash gas from the economizer of the chiller through the second air inlet (which can be used for interstage extraction in special cases to meet specific working conditions) and further improve the COP performance of the chiller by using the jet enthalpy increase technology. The setting of the second air inlet cavity effectively reduces the gas velocity from the interstage flow channel and the second air inlet, so that the gas between the two is fully mixed. Even if the gas at the second air inlet contains a certain amount of droplets, the droplets are mixed with the superheated gas from the interstage flow channel and evaporated instantly, preventing the suction of the secondary gas compression device from carrying liquid, thereby improving the reliability of the operation of the centrifugal compressor.

[0012] The shell is provided with a junction box on the outside of the stator, and the junction box is installed with a second terminal for detecting the temperature of the stator and its electromagnetic coil.

The air supply system of the utility model adopts the first pipe joint to connect the condenser or evaporator of the chiller through the external air supply device. The main function of the air supply system is to provide lubricating gas of a certain pressure to the first bearing and the second bearing, ensure the formation of a stable air film in the first air gap and the second air gap, fully lubricate the air-floating bearing, so that the rotor is normally suspended on the bearing, thereby realizing the high-speed operation of the centrifugal compressor. The bearing uses refrigerant gas (also suitable for liquid or gas-liquid two-phase state) as a lubricant, so that the chiller can run without oil, which is beneficial to improve the COP energy efficiency of the chiller. It should be emphasized that the first bearing and the second bearing in the present invention are both static pressure air bearings (dynamic pressure air bearings and dynamic and static pressure air bearings are also applicable). In addition to being used in chillers, the bearings and their air supply systems can also be used in heat pump units, waste heat recovery units and ORC turbine expansion units, etc.

[0014] The side of the shell is connected to the cooling system through the second pipe joint and the third pipe joint. The cooling system includes a first cooling channel connected by the second pipe joint. The first cooling channel is connected to the first cooling cavity and the second cooling cavity respectively.

[0015] The first cooling chamber is connected to the first exhaust channel via a first axial air hole provided in the first bearing seat; the second cooling chamber is connected to the second exhaust channel via a second axial air hole provided in the second bearing seat, and the gas in the exhaust channel enters the cooling chamber through the axial air hole after being throttled by the sealing seat, and the axial air hole also takes into account the exhaust function of the bearing.

[0016] The shell has a first mounting seat and a second mounting seat at both axial ends, respectively; the first mounting seat has an inner wall for mounting the first bearing seat and the first volute, and is provided with an air intake port for connecting the interstage flow channel of the first exhaust flow channel; the air intake port is located inside the shell as a whole and is connected to the first exhaust flow channel, and air leakage is usually not a concern.
