And thereafter, the working fluid F flows, while being compressed in the order of the internal flow passage 34, the diffuser flow passage 432 and the return flow passage 433 of the second stage impeller 3 disposed at the second compressor stage 12. Further, the working fluid F flowing from the final stage impeller 3 disposed at the fifth stage compressor stage 15 to the diffuser flow passage 432 is discharged to the outside via the discharge port 434.
  • the working fluid F is compressed, by flowing through the internal flow passage 34 of each impeller 3, while flowing in the aforementioned order. That is, in the centrifugal compressor 1 of the present embodiment, the working fluid F is gradually compressed by the plurality of impellers 3, thereby obtaining a large compression ratio.
  • the centrifugal compressor 1 by gradually compressing the working fluid F using the plurality of impellers 3, on the rotary shaft 2 fixed to the impeller 3 via the disk 31, the thrust force is generated toward the first side in the direction of the axis O.
  • the protrusion portion 5 is provided on the disk 31 of the last stage impeller 3 of the nearest the second side in the direction of the axis O, it is possible to generate the thrust force directed to the second side in the direction of the axis O, which is in the direction opposite to the thrust force generated by the impellers 3 from the first stage to the fourth stage, on the rotary shaft 2, by the last stage impeller 3.
  • the protrusion portion 5 is provided in the low-pressure space 44, and the high-pressure working fluid F discharged from the internal flow passage 34 of the last stage impeller 3 is sealed by the sealing surface 51 to prevent the working fluid from leaking out toward the low-pressure space 44. Therefore, with the sealing surface 51 as a boundary, the pressure of the low-pressure space 44 on the second side in the direction of the axis O becomes lower than the pressure around the impeller 3 on the first side in the direction of the axis O. Therefore, a pressure lower than that on the cover 33 and the back side 311 acts on the pressure-receiving surface 52 constituted by the first pressure-receiving surface 522, the second pressure-receiving surface 523 and the main pressure-receiving surface 521. As a result, the thrust force directed toward the second side in the direction of the axis O from the last stage impeller via the disk 31 provided with the protrusion portion 5 can be generated on the rotary shaft 2
  • the thrust force applied to the rotary shaft 2 by the impellers 3 from the first stage to the fourth stage can be weakened by the last stage impeller 3.

  • the centrifugal compressor 1 is used in a nitric acid plant and nitric acid is used as the working fluid F
  • nitric acid and ammonia react with each other, and ammonium nitrate is produced as a solid product. Therefore, if an annular separate member as a balance piston is disposed on the back side 311 of the disk 31 of the last stage impeller 3 to try to adjust the thrust force generated in the rotary shaft 2, when the high-pressure working fluid F flows in, the solid product is accumulated in the gap formed between the back side 311 of the disk 31 and the separate member.
  • the low-pressure space 44 communicates with the suction port 431 having the lowest pressure in the casing flow passage 43, it is possible to maximize the force which acts on the pressure-receiving surface 52 pulling from the first side toward the second side in the direction of the axis O. Therefore, it is possible to increase the thrust force from the last stage impeller 3 toward the second side in the direction of the axis O acting on the rotary shaft 2 via the disk 31 provided with the protrusion portion 5.
  • the disk 31 provided with the protrusion portion 5.
  • the protrusion portion 5 is formed to be large in the radial direction.
  • the recess portion 53 recessed from the pressure-receiving surface 52 is formed, it is possible to form the protrusion portion 5 to be small by reducing the thickness of the protrusion portion 5, while forming the pressure-receiving surface 52. Therefore, by forming the recess portion 53, it is possible to limit an increase in the weight of the impeller 3 having the protrusion portion 5.
  • the protrusion portion 5 is formed integrally with the disk 31, it is not necessary to fix a separate member such as a balance piston on the back side 311 of the disk 31. Therefore, it is not necessary to secure a space on the outer surface 21 of the rotary shaft 2 in order to fix the separate member to the rotary shaft 2 by shrink-fitting. As a result, the length of the rotary shaft 2 in the direction of the axis O can be shortened, and vibration of the rotary shaft 2 can be suppressed.
  • the sealing surface 51 is formed to be parallel with the outer surface 21 of the rotary shaft 2, even when elongation in the direction of the axis O occurs in the rotary shaft 2, it is possible to prevent the rotary machine such as the centrifugal compressor 1 having a plurality of impellers 3 from being influenced by the elongation.
  • the sealing surface 51 is formed to be inclined or formed in a stepwise shape, when elongation in the direction of the axis O occurs in the rotary shaft 2, there is a risk of contact of the sealing surface 51 with the casing 4. As a result, there is a risk of damage to the rotary shaft 2 as well as damage to the sealing performance.
  • the sealing surface 51 is formed to be parallel with the outer surface 21 of the rotary shaft 2, even when the position of the sealing surface 51 moves in the direction of the axis O, it is possible to secure the sealing performance, without coming into contact with the casing 4.
  • the recess portion 53 is formed to form the first pressure-receiving surface 522 and the second pressure-receiving surface 523 on the protrusion portion 5, but the present invention is not limited to such a structure.
  • the recess portion 53 may have an arbitrary shape such that the recess portion 53 is recessed from the main pressure-receiving surface 521 in a semicircular cross section.
  • the recess portion 53 itself may not be formed in the protrusion portion 5.
