Description

Method for regulating and controlling axial force automatic balance of centrifugal compressor
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of centrifugal compressors, relates to axial force, and in particular relates to a regulating and controlling method for automatic balance of axial force of a centrifugal compressor.
Background
The centrifugal compressor is used as core equipment and has wide application in various industries such as metallurgy, petrochemical industry, air separation, video, construction, national defense and the like, and plays an extremely important role. With the achievement of aerodynamic research, the efficiency of the centrifugal compressor is continuously improved, and due to the successful development of technical keys such as high-pressure sealing, processing of small-flow narrow impellers, multi-oil wedge bearings and the like, a series of problems that the centrifugal compressor develops to a high-pressure wide-flow range are solved, so that the application range of the centrifugal compressor is greatly expanded, and the centrifugal compressor can replace a reciprocating compressor in many occasions, and the application range is greatly expanded.
In principle, in a centrifugal compressor, the centrifugal force imparted to the gas by the impeller rotating at high speed and the diffusion imparted to the gas in the diffusion passage increase the gas pressure. The impeller and the main shaft are fixed together to rotate together, gas enters the impeller from the axial direction and is thrown out from the radial direction through the work of the impeller, and the pressure is increased in the process. With this structure, the high-pressure gas at the outlet acts on the impeller with a force greater than the force of the low-pressure gas acting on the impeller, thereby generating an axial force on the rotor directed from the outlet to the inlet.
The rotor of a centrifugal compressor operating at high speed always acts on an axial force directed from the high pressure end to the low pressure end. The rotor will be displaced axially in the direction of the axial force, which will cause a relative movement between the journal and the bearing, and thus, it is possible to strain the bearing or the journal, and more seriously, friction, collision or even machine damage of the rotor element with the stator element will be caused by the displacement of the rotor. Since the axial force of the rotor is harmful to the machine, which can cause friction, wear, collision or even damage to the machine, effective measures should be taken to balance and eliminate.
It is currently common practice to balance a portion of the axial force by the balance disc, with the remaining axial force being borne by the thrust bearing. A balancing disk is added behind the final-stage impeller of the centrifugal compressor, one side of the balancing disk is communicated with the outlet of the final-stage impeller and is high-pressure gas, the other side of the balancing disk is connected with the inlet of the first-stage impeller of the centrifugal compressor in a side-joint mode and is low-pressure gas, so that thrust opposite to the axial force of a rotor is formed, and a part of axial force can be balanced.
However, in the actual situation, the centrifugal compressor can cause fluctuation of axial force under the variable working condition, the exhaust pressure is larger than the rated value, the axial force is overlarge, the bearing capacity of the thrust bearing is exceeded, the thrust bearing is damaged, and the centrifugal compressor is forced to stop to cause economic loss.

Specifically, the method comprises the following steps:
Step one, confirming a control target:
as the rotational speed of the centrifugal compressor increases, the outlet exhaust pressure of the centrifugal compressor increases, the main shaft 1 moves toward the air inlet end, the thrust bearing 4 bears residual axial force, a lubricating oil film of the centrifugal compressor is established, and when the reading of the shaft displacement monitoring probe 14 tends to be stable, the current reading of the shaft displacement monitoring probe 14 is confirmed to be zero as a control target.
Tracking the reading of the shaft displacement monitoring probe:
As the centrifugal compressor load increases, the axial force increases gradually, the residual axial force carried by the thrust bearing 4 increases, the lubricating film is thinned, the lubricating film carrying capacity increases, and the reading of the shaft displacement monitoring probe 14 increases.
As the centrifugal compressor load decreases, the axial force decreases progressively, the residual axial force carried by the thrust bearing 4 decreases, the lubricating film thickens, the lubricating film carrying capacity decreases, and the reading of the shaft displacement monitoring probe 14 decreases.
Step three, adjusting the pressure of a high-pressure adjusting chamber of the balance disc:
When the axial force is increased and the reading of the axial displacement monitoring probe 14 is larger than zero, the valve opening of the electric regulating valve 13 on the branch pressure pipeline 12 is controlled, the pressure in the balance disc high-pressure regulating chamber 10 is increased, the acting force of the balance disc 6 is increased, and the axial force is reduced.
When the axial force is reduced, the reading of the axial displacement monitoring probe 14 is smaller than zero, the valve opening of the electric regulating valve 13 on the branch pressure pipeline 12 is controlled, the pressure in the balance disc high-pressure regulating chamber 10 is reduced, the acting force of the balance disc 6 is reduced, and the axial force is increased.
The step can stabilize the stress of the thrust bearing 4 by adjusting the pressure of the balance disc high-pressure adjusting chamber 10, so that the stress of the thrust bearing 4 is stable.

With the change of the valve opening of the electric regulating valve 13, the balance disc 6 gradually balances out the increased axial force, the residual axial force is reduced, the axial force acting on the thrust bearing 4 is reduced, the bearing capacity of a lubricating oil film is reduced, the reading of the shaft displacement monitoring probe 14 is reduced, the zero position is gradually returned, and one round of control cycle is completed; the control cycle is repeated for a plurality of times, and the automatic balance regulation and control of the axial force of the centrifugal compressor are realized.
