The volute 1 has a cooling chamber B for accommodating a cooling medium. The cooling chamber B is arranged adjacent to the side edges of the impeller 2. Because the impeller 2 applies work to the gas compression, the pressure, speed and temperature of the gas are improved, and under the condition of unchanged compression ratio, the energy consumption required by the gas compression at high temperature is higher, so that the compression power consumption of the vapor compressor is larger, and the heat generated in the process of compressing the gas by the impeller 2 is absorbed through the heat conduction of the cooling medium in the cooling cavity B, so that the temperature of the gas is timely reduced in the compression process, the compression power consumption of the vapor compressor is further reduced, and the working efficiency of the compressor is improved.
Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the volute 1 includes a volute body 11, an annular groove 12 provided on the volute body 11, and an annular plate 13 covering an opening of the annular groove 12. The annular groove 12 extends in the circumferential direction of the volute body 11. The annular groove 12 and the annular plate 13 enclose a cooling chamber B. Specifically, the annular plate 13 is located between the circumferential side of the impeller 2 and the volute body 11, in the gas compression process, generated heat at the impeller 2 is conducted and radiated to the cooling medium in the cooling cavity B through the annular plate 13, the annular groove 12 and the annular plate 13 cooperate to enable the cavity of the cooling cavity B to be annular, the containing amount of the cooling medium is guaranteed, the radiating effect is improved, and in the circumferential direction of the annular cooling cavity B, the inner ring of the cooling cavity B is always attached to the annular plate 13, the heat exchange area is increased, the heat conduction and radiating capacity is further enhanced in the gas compression process, the cooling effect is improved, and the compression work is further reduced.

Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the water vapor compressor further comprises a seal 5. The seal 5 is provided at the junction of the annular plate 13 and the volute body 11. The sealing member 5 is used for sealing the annular plate 13 and the volute body 11, so that the tightness of the cooling cavity B is improved, and the risk of leakage of cooling medium is reduced.
Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the end face of the volute body 11 that engages the annular plate 13 comprises a fluted end face. The annular plate 13 is disposed in the groove cavity of the groove-shaped end face. The seal 5 is arranged between the circumferential edge of the annular plate 13 and the side wall of the groove cavity. Specifically, the seal 5 includes a seal ring that is snappingly provided at a circumferential edge of the annular plate 13 to enhance a sealing effect between the annular plate 13 and the volute body 11.
Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the inner side of the annular plate 13 is bent towards the inlet of the impeller 2, and the end surface of the bent portion of the annular plate 13 is flush with the end surface where the inlet of the impeller 2 is located, so that the heat exchange area can be further increased, and a sealing ring can be sleeved on the circumferential edge of the bent portion of the annular plate 13, so as to further improve the sealing effect.
In some embodiments, the seal ring is an O-ring.
In some embodiments, cooling cavity B comprises an annular cavity. The annular chamber is arranged coaxially with the impeller 2. The arrangement is convenient for processing the annular groove 12, and the distances between the annular cavity and the side edges of the impeller 2 are equal in the circumferential direction, so that the balance of heat dissipation performance is ensured.
On the basis of the above embodiment, the ratio of the inner diameter of the annular chamber to the diameter of the inlet side of the impeller 2 is in the range (1.2,1.6). Specifically, the inside diameter of the annular chamber is D0, the diameter of the inlet side of the impeller is D0, and if D0/D0 is less than 1.2, it means that the annular chamber is too close to the side edge of the impeller 2, and the gas sucked by the impeller 2 may be saturated gas, so that the gas is cooled without being compressed, and water vapor in the impeller 2 may be condensed, resulting in liquid impact. If D0/D0 is greater than 1.6, it means that the annular chamber is too far from the side edge of the impeller 2, resulting in a decrease in heat dissipation performance and a limited reduction in compression power consumption.
Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the water vapor compressor further includes a spray flow passage. A diffuser flow passage 3 is formed between the diffuser plate 8 and the scroll 1.

The temperature of the cooling water is normal temperature, for example, about 30 ℃, and the cooling water is further sprayed into the diffusion flow passage 3 after being cooled in the process of compressing the gas by the impeller 2, so that the gas in the diffusion flow passage 3 is cooled, and the superheat degree of the gas output by the vapor compressor is reduced. Not only cooling down to impeller 2's compression process, still spray liquid cooling down on diffusion runner 3, abundant reduction exhaust superheat degree, on this basis, if make spiral case 1 with compressed gas delivery to second grade impeller in order further to compress, can also reduce second grade impeller's intake superheat degree, and then make second grade impeller's compression work also correspondingly reduce, promote holistic efficiency.
In actual use, the heat insulation efficiency may deviate from the expected value, and the compressed gas in the diffusion flow passage 3 also dissipates heat to the outside through heat conduction of the casing wall of the volute body 11, so that the actual exhaust superheat degree may deviate from the expected exhaust superheat degree, and the water spraying flow and/or water spraying pressure may be adjusted by detecting the actual exhaust superheat degree, so as to regulate and control the exhaust superheat degree. For example, in some embodiments, the volute 1 has an exhaust port that discharges compressed gas. The vapor compressor further includes an adjustment member disposed within the spray flow path. The adjusting member is configured to adjust a flow rate of the sprayed cooling water according to a degree of superheat of the compressed gas discharged from the exhaust port. Specifically, the adjusting part comprises a flow adjusting valve, the actual superheat degree of the exhaust gas is obtained by detecting the temperature and the pressure of the discharged compressed gas, and the valve core opening of the flow adjusting valve is adjusted according to the actual superheat degree, so that the flow of the sprayed cooling water is adjusted. For example, the measured actual superheat of the discharged compressed gas is greater than the desired superheat, indicating a need to increase the water spray flow; the actual superheat degree of the discharged compressed gas is measured to be smaller than the expected superheat degree, and the water spray flow rate can be appropriately reduced. In conclusion, the superheat degree of the discharged compressed gas can be adjusted by adaptively adjusting the water spraying flow according to the actual working condition, and the applicability is improved.
Referring to fig. 1, in some embodiments, the water vapor compressor further comprises a sensor 7.

Specifically, the sensor 7 includes a pressure sensor and a temperature sensor, and after the pressure sensor detects the actual pressure of the exhaust gas, the actual temperature detected by the temperature sensor is compared with the saturation temperature under the pressure, if the actual temperature is higher than the saturation temperature, the exhaust compressed gas is indicated to have a superheat degree, and then the exhaust compressed gas is regulated by spraying liquid.
In some embodiments, the water vapor compressor further comprises an exhaust flange provided at the exhaust port of the scroll case 1 for controlling whether the exhaust port is opened or not, and a sensor 7 is provided at the exhaust flange.
In some embodiments, the discharge pressure of the cooling water is configured to be adjusted according to the degree of superheat of the compressed gas discharged from the discharge port. For example, the measured actual superheat of the discharged compressed gas is greater than the desired superheat, indicating a need to increase the water spray pressure; the actual superheat degree of the discharged compressed gas is measured to be smaller than the desired superheat degree, and the water spray pressure can be appropriately reduced.
For example, referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the water vapor compressor further comprises a perfusion channel 6. The filling channel 6 is provided on the housing wall of the volute 1. The first end of the filling channel 6 is connected with the cooling cavity B, and the second end of the filling channel 6 is externally connected with a cold source.

On the other hand, as the exhaust temperature is not affected by the pressure ratio, the working range of the compressor is only determined by the compression efficiency, and is not limited by the highest exhaust temperature, so that the applicability of the compressor to different working scenes is improved.
In some embodiments, the water vapor compressor includes a plurality of atomizer heads 4. The plurality of atomizer heads 4 are circumferentially spaced relative to the axis of the impeller 2.
