Definitions
- the present invention relates to a compression unit for supplying a complete pressure service to a plant, the single compression unit being capable of supplying high and low pressure services.
- a main drawback of the prior art is the complexity of the overall architecture and configuration of the compression units, this leading to bulky apparatus.
- each of such compression units comprising a dedicated driver and associated impellers which increase the overall dimensions of the units.
- a first embodiment of the present invention relates to a single compression unit for supplying a complete compression service consisting of high and low pressure gas to a process plant.
- the compression unit is configured to supply high and low pressure gas flow with a simple architecture and with a configuration which reduces overall dimensions and weight of the unit, and also has an increased efficiency with respect to the state of the art.
- impellers having a large diameter can process a high flow rate but work with reduced rotational speed and, therefore, a l imited compression ratio.
- the term "low" pressure here indicates rating values within a typical range comprised between 1 50 and 300, while the impeller can process a flow rate which could be comprised in a range between 50.000 and 200.000 m 3 per hour.
- a typical speed value of an impeller processing said flow rates is 5.000 to 1 .800 rounds per minute thus indicated for a direct coupled solution .
- high pressure here ind icates typical rating values comprised between 300 and 2500, with an inlet pressure value between 3 and 50 bar for the first impeller.
- the impeller processes low flow rates, typically less than 50.000 m 3 per hour.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic representation of one embodiment of the compression unit according to the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a schematic representation of the compression unit of the present invention according to a different embodiment.
- Such compression unit 1 comprises a single driver 2 associated with two driver shaft-ends preferably projecting apart from said driver 2 along opposite directions, a first driver shaft end 3 and a second driver shaft end 4.
- the driver 2 divides the compression unit into two sides; on one side, a first unit 1 0 is operatively connected to the first driver shaft-end 3, while a second unit 20 is operatively connected to the second driver shaft-end 4.
- said first unit 10 comprises an impeller 1 1
- said second unit comprises a bull gear 21 in an integrally geared-compressor arrangement.
- said impeller 1 1 of said first unit 1 0 is an overhung impeller directly connected to the first driver shaft-end 3, preferably by means of a flanged connection or a flexible coupl ing .
- an overhung impeller is an impeller having no bearing/s on the opposite side with respect to the driver, thus all bearing/s of the overhang impeller are arranged between the impeller and the driver.
- the impeller 1 1 of the first unit is the "low" pressure source unit: typical values of flow rate processed by the overhung impeller are about 50.000 m 3 per hour, with an inlet pressure value of around 1 bar and an outlet pressure value of about 2 or 3 bar.
- the bull gear 21 is preferably connected by means of a flanged connection, or a flexible coupling, to said second driver shaft- end 4.
- said second unit 20 comprises the bull gear 21 which drives at least one driven shaft 22, 23 through pinions in a typical integrally geared-compressor arrangement.
- the bull gear 21 comprises two or more driven shafts, for example a first driven shaft 22 and a second driven shaft 23, which are drivingly connected to the bull gear 21 by means of respectively pinions.
- Said pinions are teethed wheels having a diameter smaller than the diameter of the bull gear. The pinions are engaged directly on the bull gear so that the rotation of the latter produces the rotation of pinions.
- Each of said driven shafts supports at its opposite ends an overhung impeller 22a, 22b, 23a, 23b.
- the two driven shafts 22, 23 are configured to rotate at different rotary speed.
- Typical flow rate values for the second unit 20 are about 50.000 and 200.000 m 3 per hour, with casing rating varying between ANSI 300 and 1 500.
- the driver 2 drives the single overhung impeller 1 1 connected to said first driver shaft 3.
- the same driver 2 drives the bull gear 21 which comprises preferably two driven shafts 22, 23, the first driven shaft 22 supports at its ends a couple of first overhung impellers 22a, 22b, the second driven shaft 23 supports at its ends a couple of second overhung impellers 23a, 23b.
- the first overhung impellers 22a, 22b and the second overhung impellers 23a, 23b are fluidly connected so that the gas flow passes through the first overhung impellers 22a, 22b of the first driven shaft 22 and then through the second overhung impellers of the second driven shaft 23, thus forming a first multi stage compression unit for compressing a small flow rate up to high pressure values.
- This configuration is illustrated in Figure 1 by means of dashed lines indicated with the reference number 40 which represent the hydraulic connection between the impellers.
- the outlet of the overhung impeller 1 1 of the first unit 10 is fluidly connected to the inlet of the second unit 20, thus forming a second multi stage compression unit.
- This configuration is represented in Figure 1 by means of dashed line 30 which represent the hydraul ic connection between the units.
- the first unit 1 0 provides the gas flow rate to the second unit 20 thus obtaining a compression unit apt to elaborate large flow rates with an high overall compression rate.
- the first unit 1 0 comprises an overhung impeller 1 1 which is connected to said first driver shaft 3 by means of a gear arrangement, instead that flanged to said first driver shaft.
- the first unit 1 0 comprises a beam compressor. Said beam compressor may be flanged to said first driver shaft 3 or, alternatively, the beam compressor may be connected to said first driver shaft 3 by means of a gear arrangement.
- Typical beam compressor casing rating varies from ANSI 600 to API 1 5000.
- the inlet of the beam compressor may be hydraulically connected to the output of the bull gear 21 of the second unit 20.
- the first unit 1 0 receives the flow rate coming from the output of the second unit 20, thus forming a third multi stage compression unit allowing to reach h igher compression rates.
- the hydraulic connection between the first 1 0 and the second 20 unit is represented in Figure 2 by means of the dashed line 50.
- the compression unit according to the present invention therefore solves the drawbacks afflicting the prior art.
- One of the results achieved with the compression unit according to the present invention is to reduce the footprint of the apparatus, with an extremely versatile configuration .
