Effects on Performance

© 2006 Dresser-Rand

Head Concept Mechanical: The “work” (energy) developed to raise a weight of 1 pound by a distance of one (1) foot. Expressed in foot-pound (or equivalent Kgm or Nm);

‹

Gas Compressors: “ work” done by the compressor / amount of gas. The head expressed in feet, is the height to which the gas could be lifted ‹

© 2006 Dresser-Rand

Head Concept The height to which the gas is lifted depends on the velocity of the gas

‹

For any given RPM, the head developed by the compressor is fairly constant, independent of the gas nature. ‹

Head is depending upon: • Compressor geometry (i.e. no of stages, impeller diameters) • Compressor speed ‹

Compressor Performance Curves There are two types of curves that are generally required, section and overall: ‹

• section refers to an impeller or sequence of impellers between two nozzles such that there is no pressure drop or temp reduction between impellers

• overall refers to a complete compressor or compressor train Note: a back-to-back unit with a crossover may often be considered a two-section compressor; but with respect to performance curves, it is a single section since no pressure drop or cooling is introduced between the impellers

For single section compressors, the section curves and overall curves are one in the same ‹

Surge Phenomenon At any given speed, there is minimum flow, below which, the compressor cannot be operated in a stable condition. This minimum flow value is called “surge “ point. ‹

Surge is oscillation of the entire flow of the compressor system and this oscillation can be detrimental to the machine. ‹

‹

Compressor surge may be evidenced by the following: a) Excessive rotor vibration b) Increasingly higher process gas temp c) Rapid changes in axial thrust d) Sudden changes in load e) Audible sounds (if surge is severe) © 2006 Dresser-Rand

Surge – Damage of Compressor Internals High axial displacement

Deformation due to high temperature © 2006 Dresser-Rand

Surge The frequency of the surge cycle varies inversely with the volume of the system ‹

If the check valve is located near compressor discharge nozzle, the frequency will be much higher than of a system with a large volume in the discharge upstream of the check valve ‹

The higher frequency of the surge, the intensity will be lower (i.e. few cycles / minute up to more than 20 cycles / sec) ‹

The intensity of the surge increases with gas density , pressure and lower temperature ‹

Surge points

Q © 2006 Dresser-Rand

Surge - Effects of Gas Composition Observations made in respect to the heavy gas: ‹

The flow at surge is higher;

The stage produces more head than corresponding to medium gas / light gas

‹

The right side of the curve turns downward (approaches stonewall) more rapidly

‹

The curve is flatter in the opening stage (small RTS)

‹

© 2006 Dresser-Rand

External Causes and Effects of Surge ‹

Restriction in suction or discharge of system

‹

Process changes in pressure, temperatures, or gas MW

‹

Internal plugging of flow passages of compressor (fouling)

‹

Inadvertent loss of speed

‹

Instrument or control valve malfunction

‹

Operator error

‹

Misdistribution of load in parallel operation

‹

Restriction in Suction / Discharge

© 2006 Dresser-Rand

Parallel Operation Typically, for parallel operation, the flow is not split evenly and one section or compressor handles more flow than the other, but both sections are required to make the same pressure ratio ‹

Careful analysis of the pressure ratio curves is required to insure satisfactory operation and suitable overall range ‹

“similar pressure ratio curves” • At the design flow, section (1) is much more flow than of section (2)

• If the total flow is reduced 10%, the compressor slows down to maintain the same pressure ratio

• The flow to each section is reduced 10% (dashed line) since the pressure ratio curves have a approximately the same rise © 2006 Dresser-Rand

“different pressure ratio curves” (section 2 pressure ratio curve is steeper than section 1) • If the total flow is reduced 10% the compressor slows down to maintain pressure ratio • Section (1) reduces more than 10% ( about 12.5% - the dashed line) since its curve is shallower • Section (2) reduces less than 10% (about 5% - dashed line) since its curve is steeper • The two sections are now operating at significantly different portions of the curve and are now handling a different percentage of the total flow than they were at the design point.

• Section (1) is nearing surge. Further reduction in flow would force section one into surge

• The difference in the curve shape results in a reduced overall range for parallel operation © 2006 Dresser-Rand

Choke Limit Choke is the maximum flow that a centrifugal compressor can handle at a given speed. At that point, the compressor is unable to produce any net overall pressure ratio. ‹

The maximum flow region of the compressor performance curve is where the gas speeds approach Mach 1 ‹

Gas compression is no longer occurring in the compression channels. This region of the curve, as it becomes almost vertical at the choke limit, is also know as “Stonewall” ‹

Stonewall is usually not detrimental to the compressor, it simply limits the maximum flow. If choke occurs at an off design condition, the maximum volume flow can be increased by increasing the rotational speed ‹

Performance Curves – Inlet Gas Condition Effects

© 2006 Dresser-Rand

Factors Affecting Compressor Performance MW & Head - If MW increases, the head for a given ratio will decrease in direct proportion ‹

Temp & Head - If the Ts increases, the head for a given ratio will increase in direct proportion ‹

Zave & Head - If the average compressibility increases, the head will increase in direct proportion

‹

N and Head - If speed increases, the head will increase in direct proportion

‹

BHP and Head - If Head increases, the BHP will increase in direct proportion ‹

Flow and Speed - If the speed increases, the flow will increase in direct proportion

‹

© 2006 Dresser-Rand

Factors Affecting Compressor Performance N & BHP - If the speed increases, the BHP will increase in proportion to the cube of the speed. (Because flow increases directly as speed and head increases as the square of the speed and BHP is the product of head X mass flow)

‹

Density - The only thing a compressor impeller sees is inlet capacity. Thus to get more capacity out of an existing compressor it is necessary to change the density of the inlet by: • decreasing the suction temperature • increasing the suction pressure • increasing the MW of the gas

‹

© 2006 Dresser-Rand

Compressor Off - Design Performance Performance curves for axial and centrifugal compressors are usually based on constant inlet conditions (Ps, Ts, MW). In actual service, these compressors rarely see these base curve conditions exactly ‹

If the field inlet conditions deviate more then 5% from the curve inlet conditions then the field data can not be accurately plotted on the curve without converting the field data to curve conditions ‹

To properly evaluate the compressor (running off design), the performance parameters shall be corrected to the design conditions ‹

Fouling … is the deposit and the non –uniform accumulation of debris in the gas ‹

Occurs due to carry over of liquids and debris from the inlet suction scrubber ‹

Polymerization may occur in wet gas and cracked gas compressors applications if the temperature exceeds the critical point beyond the polymerization process occurs (235 F) ‹

Fouling build up occurs usually on the impeller hub and shroud. There is also a build up on the blades ( on the pressure side) ‹

Fouling – Online Fluid Injection ‹..

injecting a small amount of solvent to reduce the friction coefficient of the blade and impeller surface (maintain the surface wet) thus preventing the fouling to build up on the surface The injection shall be done from the start (new equipment / overhauled) , if not the fouling deposit could be dislodged and moved downstream (blockage) ‹

Injection objective is to prevent fouling accumulations, not to provide on line cleaning of the impeller / blade ‹

Non continuous solvent injection program will allow the impeller / blade to dry and promote fouling ‹

© 2006 Dresser-Rand

Fouling – Online Fluid Injection ‹

‹

‹

Critical factors that ensure fouling will not form: • Type of injection spray nozzles • Location of the spray nozzles • Selection of solvent Solvent vapor pressure and internal comp temperatures is necessary to determine if stage or section solvent injection is applicable Typically amount of solvent injection is 1-2 % of total mass flow. Excessive injection could erode leading edge blade tips, causing impeller fatigue © 2006 Dresser-Rand

Online Fluid Injection ‹

Solvent injection:

• Purpose is to maintain a wet surface to prevent fouling material sticking (typically Naphtha based solvent) • Injected at suction pipe of each section (Spool piece) • Injected at compressor return bends regardless gas temperature • 0.5 to 1.0% of total gas weight flow at each section is effective, but not exceed 3% of total gas weight flow ‹

H2O injection:

• Purpose is to reduce gas temperature ( by evaporation of water) • Injected at return bends where discharge gas temperature is high • Demi water (boiler feed water), with low oxygen content is recommended. Filters to be installed at upstream of spray nozzle to prevent clogging
