Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne les compresseurs et, notamment, les compresseurs centrifuges. Elle se rapporte plus particulièrement au contrôle de la stabilité aérodynamique des compresseurs, à faible débit.The present invention relates to compressors and, in particular, centrifugal compressors. It relates more particularly to the control of the aerodynamic stability of the compressors, at low flow rate.
Les compresseurs comportent généralement un moteur électrique et un groupe compresseur, par exemple à plusieurs étages, qui comporte un ensemble de roues à aube portées par un arbre. Le moteur entraîne en rotation un rotor qui est accouplé à l'arbre du compresseur. En fonctionnement, le gaz manipulé est admis en entrée du compresseur puis est transmis aux étages successifs de compression du groupe compresseur pour être refoulé en sortie du compresseur.The compressors generally comprise an electric motor and a compressor unit, for example multi-stage, which comprises a set of paddle wheels carried by a shaft. The motor rotates a rotor which is coupled to the compressor shaft. In operation, the manipulated gas is admitted to the inlet of the compressor and is transmitted to the successive compression stages of the compressor unit to be discharged at the outlet of the compressor.
La courbe caractéristique de la compression fournie par un compresseur, qui représente la pression de refoulement en fonction du débit, est fonction d'une série de paramètres, tels que la pression d'aspiration, la vitesse de rotation du rotor, la nature du gaz comprimé, ...The characteristic curve of the compression provided by a compressor, which represents the discharge pressure as a function of the flow rate, is a function of a series of parameters, such as the suction pressure, the speed of rotation of the rotor, the nature of the gas compressed, ...
Il a été constaté que, à de faibles débits, c'est-à-dire à des débits inférieurs à la plage de stabilité du compresseur, il apparaît des instabilités aérodynamiques correspondant à une apparition d'un décollement du flux de gaz manipulé par le compresseur et au phénomène connu par le terme de « pompage ».It has been found that, at low flow rates, that is to say at flow rates lower than the stability range of the compressor, aerodynamic instabilities corresponding to an occurrence of detachment of the gas flow manipulated by the compressor and the phenomenon known by the term "pumping".
De telles instabilités, en aval de la roue à aube, sont susceptibles d'entraîner des vibrations, voire des altérations des éléments constitutifs du compresseur et limitent, dans tous les cas, la plage de fonctionnement de la machine.Such instabilities, downstream of the impeller, are likely to cause vibrations, or even alterations of the constituent elements of the compressor and in any case limit the operating range of the machine.
C'est la raison pour laquelle il a été proposé, pour des applications à basse pression, de doter les compresseurs et, notamment les diffuseurs prévus en aval des roues, d'aubages à calage variable, en ce qui concerne les diffuseurs aubés ou de parois mobiles, en ce qui concerne les diffuseurs lisses. Toutefois, des tels aubages sont généralement déplacés par des dispositifs mécaniques qui nécessitent des perçages dans le corps de la machine tournante et, en conséquence, de prévoir des dispositifs additionnels pour assurer l'étanchéité.This is the reason why it has been proposed, for low pressure applications, to provide the compressors and, in particular the diffusers provided downstream of the wheels, variable pitch vanes, with regard to the diffusers aubés or moving walls, with regard to smooth diffusers. However, such bladders are generally moved by mechanical devices that require holes in the body of the rotating machine and, consequently, to provide additional devices to ensure sealing.
De telles solutions limitent dès lors leur utilisation à des pressions généralement inférieures à 20 bars.Such solutions therefore limit their use at pressures generally below 20 bar.
Il a par ailleurs été proposé de doter les compresseurs de dispositifs de protection antipompage, assurant une mise en communication entre le refoulement et l'aspiration, afin d'augmenter artificiellement le débit d'alimentation du compresseur.It has also been proposed to equip the compressors antipumping devices, ensuring a communication between the discharge and suction, to artificially increase the compressor supply flow.
De tels dispositifs nécessitent l'utilisation d'une instrumentation permettant de mesurer le débit traversant le compresseur, ainsi que les pressions d'aspiration et de refoulement, ainsi que des dispositifs de contrôle pilotant une vanne de commande de recirculation des gaz.Such devices require the use of instrumentation to measure the flow rate through the compressor, as well as the suction and discharge pressures, as well as control devices driving a gas recirculation control valve.
De telles solutions sont dès lors relativement coûteuses, difficiles à mettre en oeuvre et susceptibles d'être le siège de dysfonctionnements.Such solutions are therefore relatively expensive, difficult to implement and likely to be the seat of malfunctions.
Le but de l'invention est donc de pallier les inconvénients liés aux solutions selon l'état de la technique et de réduire les risques d'apparition des phénomènes de pompage et, en particulier, les phénomènes d'instabilité des gaz circulant dans le diffuseur du compresseur.The object of the invention is therefore to overcome the drawbacks associated with the solutions according to the state of the art and to reduce the risks of occurrence of pumping phenomena and, in particular, the phenomena of instability of the gases flowing in the diffuser. of the compressor.
L'invention a donc pour objet, selon un premier aspect, un diaphragme pour étage de compression d'un compresseur, comprenant un ensemble d'au moins un passage traversant s'étendant entre deux faces mutuellement opposées du diaphragme, de manière à créer un flux de gaz entre lesdites faces selon la différence de pression régnant de part et d'autre du diaphragme.The invention therefore has, according to a first aspect, a diaphragm for a compression stage of a compressor, comprising an assembly of at least one through passage extending between two mutually opposite faces of the diaphragm, so as to create a diaphragm flow of gas between said faces according to the pressure difference prevailing on both sides of the diaphragm.
Selon une autre caractéristique, ce diaphragme comporte un ensemble de passages régulièrement disposés dans le diaphragme et s'étendant chacun, sur l'une des faces du diaphragme, entre deux aubes fixes prévues sur le diaphragme.According to another characteristic, this diaphragm comprises a set of passages regularly arranged in the diaphragm and each extending on one of the faces of the diaphragm, between two fixed vanes provided on the diaphragm.
L'invention a également pour objet, selon un deuxième aspect, un étage de compression de compresseur, comprenant un diaphragme recevant un gaz fourni en entrée dudit étage, une roue aubée assurant une compression du gaz issu du diaphragme et un diffuseur de sortie.The subject of the invention is also, according to a second aspect, a compressor compression stage, comprising a diaphragm receiving a gas supplied at the inlet of said stage, a winding wheel providing a compression of the gas from the diaphragm and an outlet diffuser.
Le diaphragme comprend un ensemble d'au moins un passage traversant s'étendant entre une première face du diaphragme tournée vers l'aspiration de gaz dans l'étage de compression et une deuxième face tournée vers le diffuseur de manière à créer un flux de gaz entre le diffuseur et la zone d'admission de gaz dans le diaphragme.The diaphragm comprises an assembly of at least one through passage extending between a first face of the diaphragm facing gas suction in the compression stage and a second face facing the diffuser so as to create a flow of gas between the diffuser and the gas inlet zone in the diaphragm.
Selon une autre caractéristique, cet étage de compression comporte un ensemble de passages régulièrement disposés dans le diaphragme et s'étendant chacun, sur l'une des faces du diaphragme, entre deux aubes fixes prévues sur le diaphragme.According to another characteristic, this compression stage comprises a set of passages regularly arranged in the diaphragm and each extending, on one of the faces of the diaphragm, between two fixed vanes provided on the diaphragm.
L'invention a encore pour objet un compresseur, notamment un compresseur centrifuge, comprenant un diaphragme par étage de compression tel que défini ci-dessus.The invention also relates to a compressor, in particular a centrifugal compressor, comprising a diaphragm per compression stage as defined above.
D'autres buts, caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront à la lecture de la description suivante, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple non limitatif, et faite en référence aux dessins annexés sur lesquels :

Sur la
Dans l'exemple de réalisation représenté, le compresseur est un compresseur centrifuge et est destiné à assurer la compression d'un gaz prélevé en amont de l'étage et restitué à l'aval à une pression supérieure.In the exemplary embodiment shown, the compressor is a centrifugal compressor and is intended to ensure the compression of a gas taken upstream of the stage and returned downstream at a higher pressure.
Par ailleurs, sur les
Comme on le voit, l'étage de compression, désigné par la référence numérique générale 1, comporte une roue aubée 2 entraînée en rotation par un rotor 3 lui-même couplé à un arbre (non représenté) entraîné en rotation par un moteur électrique.As can be seen, the compression stage, designated by the general
En amont de la roue 2, c'est-à-dire du côté de l'aspiration du gaz, l'étage de compression comprend un diaphragme 4 destiné à faire communiquer l'entrée de l'étage de compression 1 avec la sortie d'un étage de compression immédiatement placé en amont, ainsi qu'un diffuseur 5 destiné à ralentir la vitesse des gaz issus de la roue aubée 2 et augmenter de la sorte la pression en sortie de l'étage 1.Upstream of the
En se référant également à la
Il comporte deux grandes faces 6 et 7 mutuellement opposées dont l'une, à savoir la face désignée par la référence 6, est ici dotée d'aubes fixes, telles que 8, et dont l'autre délimite le diffuseur 5.It comprises two mutually opposite
On voit par ailleurs que le diaphragme 4 est doté d'un ensemble de passages traversants, tels que 9, s'étendant entre les deux faces 6 et 7 du diaphragme de manière à assurer une communication entre le diffuseur 5 et la zone d'aspiration de l'étage de compression située immédiatement en amont de la roue 2.It can be seen further that the
Dans l'exemple de réalisation représenté, le nombre de passages 9 correspond à celui des aubes fixes du diaphragme 4, de sorte que les passages débouchent chacun, du côté de l'aspiration, par un orifice 10 disposé entre deux aubes fixes 8. Bien entendu, de manière générale, le diaphragme 4 peut comporter un nombre quelconque de tels passages supérieur à un.In the exemplary embodiment shown, the number of
Les passages sont toutefois de préférence disposés dans l'épaisseur du diaphragme 4 de manière à s'étendre de manière inclinée de façon radialement externe entre une zone convergeant vers le rotor 3, du côté de l'aspiration, et une zone radiale, située dans le diffuseur, en aval de la roue 2 (
Il a été constaté que la présence de tels passages permettait de compenser les phénomènes d'instabilité provoquant le pompage de la machine, en particulier pour des diffuseurs de dimensions très faibles, ou pour des débits relativement faibles.It has been found that the presence of such passages made it possible to compensate for the phenomena of instability causing the pumping of the machine, in particular for diffusers of very small dimensions, or for relatively low flow rates.
Il est à cet égard d'usage de représenter le débit à partir du débit volumique aspiré (Qv) de la surface frontale de la roue S pour un étage centrifuge et une vitesse périphérique U, à partir de la relation suivante :
Il a été constaté que la présence des passages 9 au sein du diaphragme 4 permettait d'éliminer les instabilités aérodynamiques et notamment les phénomènes de pompage pour des débits relativement faibles correspondant à des coefficients de débits inférieurs à 0,01, en créant un flux de gaz du diffuseur vers la partie amont de la roue aubée à travers les passages, selon la différence de pression régnant entre la zone de refoulement et la zone d'aspiration, permettant d'augmenter le débit du compresseur et maintenir de la sorte le compresseur dans sa plage de stabilité (
On notera à cet égard que la quantité de gaz recirculés, du refoulement vers l'aspiration, à travers les passages 9, qui dépend de la pression différentielle de part et d'autre du diaphragme, est dès lors plus importante pour des débits faibles. Elle est, au contraire, moins importante pour des débits relativement plus élevés pour lesquels les phénomènes de pompage sont moins susceptibles de se produire.It should be noted in this regard that the amount of recirculated gas, the discharge to the suction, through the
En d'autres termes, comme illustré sur la
On notera par ailleurs que le nombre et la dimension des passages de gaz sont adaptés au coefficient de débit de l'étage centrifuge, au nombre d'aubages redresseurs du diaphragme et à la quantité de gaz nécessaire au maintien de la stabilité de fonctionnement.It should also be noted that the number and the size of the gas passages are adapted to the flow coefficient of the centrifugal stage, to the number of rectifier blades of the diaphragm and to the quantity of gas necessary to maintain the operating stability.
On notera en outre que l'agencement qui vient d'être décrit constitue un dispositif entièrement passif qui ne nécessite aucun autre dispositif de contrôle ou moyen de mesure et constitue dès lors un système très fiable. Il est par ailleurs applicable à tous types de gaz et de niveaux de pression, tout en restant particulièrement intéressant pour des étages à faible coefficient de débit induisant des largeurs de diffuseur très faibles qui sont dès lors difficiles à mettre en oeuvre et à contrôler.Note further that the arrangement just described is an entirely passive device that does not require any other control device or measuring means and is therefore a very reliable system. It is also applicable to all types of gas and pressure levels, while remaining particularly interesting for stages with a low coefficient of flow inducing very small diffuser widths which are therefore difficult to implement and control.
Le diffuseur qui vient d'être décrit présente en outre un certain nombre d'avantages additionnels.The broadcaster just described has a number of additional advantages.
Il a en effet été constaté qu'aucune fuite de gaz vers l'extérieur n'était occasionnée par la présence des passages dans le diaphragme, ce qui contribue à la protection de l'environnement.It has been found that no gas leakage to the outside was caused by the presence of passages in the diaphragm, which contributes to the protection of the environment.
Le principe de fonctionnement du diaphragme reste disponible pour toutes les conditions de plus haute pression.The operating principle of the diaphragm remains available for all conditions of higher pressure.
Il est par ailleurs possible d'utiliser la technologie des étages centrifuges à des très faibles débits tout en conservant l'opérabilité en installation industrielle.It is also possible to use the technology of the centrifugal stages at very low rates while maintaining the operability in industrial installation.
Il a enfin été constaté que l'invention permettait un fonctionnement stable sur une plage de fonctionnement étendue par rapport aux machines centrifuges selon l'état de la technique.It was finally found that the invention allowed stable operation over an extended operating range compared with centrifugal machines according to the state of the art.
