In the process of gas compression, water in the gas may be precipitated and cause lubricating oil to be emulsified. In order to prevent this, the prior art controls water vapor in the gas to be in the gas phase by increasing the exhaust temperature of the oil-injected screw compressor. At this time, the rear-end system components of the oil-injected screw compressor cannot withstand the exhaust temperature of the oil-injected screw compressor, so the exhaust of the oil-injected screw compressor needs to be cooled. However, if the cooling temperature is reduced too much, water in the gas will be precipitated, causing the rear-end system to condense liquid, and even causing damage. Therefore, the prior art cools the exhaust of the oil-injected screw compressor, and then discharges the high-pressure gas to a gas-liquid separator.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The following will be described in combination with the drawings Figures 1-3 The present application will be further described in detail.

[0026] The present application discloses an exhaust system of an oil-injected screw compressor.

[0027] Embodiment 1

[0028] ReferenceFigure 1 The exhaust system of the oil-injected screw compressor comprises the oil-injected screw compressor 1, the gas cooler 2, the gas-liquid separator 3 and the exhaust port 4 which are sequentially communicated, and the different components are communicated through the gas conveying pipeline. The low-pressure gas first enters the oil-injected screw compressor 1. Since the oil-injected screw compressor 1 causes the water in the gas to be separated out during the compression process, the lubricating oil is emulsified, so the exhaust temperature is increased by 20℃ higher than the water dew point temperature, so that the water vapor in the gas is in the gas phase, at this time the high-temperature and high-pressure gas is discharged from the gas outlet of the oil-injected screw compressor 1.

[0029] With reference to Figure 1 The high-temperature and high-pressure gas is discharged into the conveying pipeline, but the conveying pipeline cannot withstand the stress under high temperature and thus causes the conveying pipeline to be broken, so the high-temperature and high-pressure gas needs to be cooled. The gas cooler 2 is arranged on the gas conveying pipeline, the gas cooler 2 is provided with a cooling water inlet and a cooling water outlet, the cooling water flows in the gas cooler 2 and exchanges heat with the high-temperature and high-pressure gas, so as to reduce the gas temperature. During the cooling process, too much temperature reduction will cause the high-pressure gas to form condensed water and separate out, and the separated condensed water will cause damage to the gas conveying pipeline, so the gas-liquid separator 3 is arranged. The condensed water separated out by the gas-liquid separator 3 will settle to the bottom of the gas-liquid separator 3 under the action of gravity and be discharged through the liquid discharge port of the gas-liquid separator 3, and the separated high-pressure saturated gas will rise to the top of the gas-liquid separator 3 and be discharged to the exhaust port 4 through the gas outlet of the gas-liquid separator 3.

[0030] With reference to Figure 1 The high-pressure saturated gas separated out by the gas-liquid separator 3 is unstable in nature, and under the condition of temperature reduction, the high-pressure saturated gas will separate out condensed water, and the condensed water will cause the gas conveying pipeline to be liquid, so the bypass pipeline 5 is arranged to solve the problem of separation of condensed water caused by temperature reduction. One end of the bypass pipeline 5 is communicated between the oil-injected screw compressor 1 and the gas cooler 2, the other end of the bypass pipeline 5 is communicated between the gas-liquid separator 3 and the exhaust port 4 and forms a mixing end 6, part of the high-temperature and high-pressure gas discharged from the oil-injected screw compressor 1 passes through the bypass pipeline 5, and the other part of the high-temperature and high-pressure gas is first cooled by the gas cooler 2 and then purified by the gas-liquid separator 3, and the two parts of high-pressure gas are mixed at the mixing end 6.

[0031] With reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2The control assembly 7 is arranged on the bypass pipeline 5, and is used for controlling the opening degree of the bypass pipeline 5. The control assembly 7 comprises an adjusting valve 8, a controller 9 and a temperature transmitter 10. The temperature transmitter 10 is arranged between the exhaust port 4 and the mixing end 6. The set temperature of the temperature transmitter 10 is 5-10 DEG C higher than the dew point of the gas pressure. The temperature transmitter 10 measures the actual temperature of the dew point of the gas pressure after mixing, converts the temperature signal into an electric signal, and sends the electric signal to the controller 9. The controller 9 is a programmable logic controller 9 of a PLC type, and can perform logic judgment, operation monitoring, data interaction and transmission. The controller 9 receives the signal from the temperature transmitter 10, compares and processes the actual temperature of the dew point of the gas pressure after mixing with the set temperature, determines the deviation between the set value and the actual value, calculates the control action to be performed according to the deviation, and connects the adjusting valve through the electric signal. The actuator of the adjusting valve 8 receives the signal from the controller 9, and automatically adjusts the opening degree of the valve disc of the adjusting valve 8 according to the signal, so as to control the flow of the high-temperature and high-pressure gas flowing to the bypass pipeline 5.

[0032] The implementation principle of the exhaust system of the oil-injected screw compressor in the embodiment of the application is as follows: low-pressure gas is compressed by the oil-injected screw compressor 1 to form high-temperature and high-pressure gas. A part of the high-temperature and high-pressure gas flows through the gas cooler 2 and the gas-liquid separator 3, and finally forms cooled high-pressure saturated gas. Another part of the high-temperature and high-pressure gas flows through the bypass pipeline 5. The actual temperature of the dew point of the gas pressure after mixing is measured by the temperature transmitter 10, the temperature signal is converted into an electric signal, and the electric signal is sent to the controller 9. After receiving the electric signal, the controller 9 controls the opening degree of the valve disc of the adjusting valve 8. The actuator of the adjusting valve 8 receives the signal from the controller 9 and automatically adjusts the opening degree of the valve disc according to the signal, so as to control the flow of the high-temperature and high-pressure gas flowing to the bypass pipeline 5. The two parts of gas are mixed at the mixing end 6. The high-temperature and high-pressure gas heats the cooled saturated gas, and forms high-pressure superheated gas. At this time, the gas is in a stable state and will not be affected by temperature reduction to separate condensed water.

[0033] Embodiment 2

[0034] Reference Figure 3The embodiment is different from the embodiment 1 in that a small amount of lubricating oil is contained in the high-pressure gas discharged from the oil-injected screw compressor 1, and therefore an oil-gas separator 11 is arranged between the gas outlet of the oil-injected screw compressor 1 and the gas inlet of the bypass pipeline 5 to effectively separate the high-pressure gas and the lubricating oil. The oil return pipeline 12 is arranged between the oil-gas separator 11 and the oil-injected screw compressor 1 to recycle the lubricating oil. The oil cooler 13 and the oil filter 14 are sequentially arranged in communication on the oil return pipeline 12, and the oil inlet of the oil cooler 13 is in communication with the oil outlet of the oil-gas separator 11. The lubricating oil separated from the oil-gas separator 11 flows to the oil return pipeline 12. Since the lubricating oil is too high in temperature to damage the oil return pipeline, the high-temperature and high-pressure gas is first discharged to the oil cooler 13 to reduce the temperature of the lubricating oil, and then the cooled lubricating oil flows to the oil filter 14. The oil filter 14 can filter the impurities and small particles in the lubricating oil to prevent the impurities in the lubricating oil from causing wear of the screw of the oil-injected screw compressor 1 during the operation of the oil-injected screw compressor 1. The oil return check valve 15 is further arranged on the oil return pipeline 12 and is arranged between the oil outlet of the oil filter 14 and the oil return port of the oil-injected screw compressor 1, so that the lubricating oil can only flow from the oil filter 14 to the oil inlet of the oil-injected screw compressor 1, preventing the lubricating oil of the oil-injected screw compressor 1 from flowing back to the oil filter 14 in the reverse direction, ensuring effective recycling and unidirectional flow of the lubricating oil, and improving the working efficiency of the oil-injected screw compressor 1.

[0035] The embodiment of the oil-injected screw compressor exhaust system provided in the application has the following implementation principle: The high-temperature and high-pressure gas discharged from the oil-injected screw compressor 1 is first discharged to the oil-gas separator 11 to separate the lubricating oil and the high-pressure gas, and then the separated lubricating oil flows to the oil return pipeline 12. On the oil return pipeline 12, the lubricating oil first flows to the oil cooler 13, then flows to the oil filter 14 after the temperature is reduced, and then flows out of the oil outlet of the oil filter 14 and passes through the oil return check valve 15 to finally flow into the oil return port of the oil-injected screw compressor 1, thereby realizing recycling of the lubricating oil.
