Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve an effect of saving energy and reliability of a device by changing each upper or lower limit pressure preset value of an on-off control valve in accordance with a compressed gas use amount in a compressor load side, and controlling an on-off period to the preset value or more. CONSTITUTION:Air is sucked from a suction port 14, to pass through a suction filter 19 and a suction valve (on-off type control valve) 2 in a fully-closed condition, and advanced into a compressor main unit 1. Air of high temperature and high pressure, compressed by the compressor main unit 1, is fed into an air storage tank 11 after passing through a check valve 13 and an aftercooler 12. Further, a hydraulic piston 4 opens/closes the suction valve 2 and a blow-off valve 3 by oil supplied from an oil storage tank 7 by a four-way electromagnetic valve 5 and an oil hydraulic pump 6. Here, a delivery side pressure is detected by a pressure sensor 8, and further, a control unit 9, when the delivery side pressure reaches, for instance, an upper limit(pressure preset)value, switches an oil passage of the four-way electromagnetic valve 5 to actuate the hydraulic piston 4. Simultaneously with closing the suction valve 2, the blow-off valve 3 is opened to place the compressor 1 in a no-load operational condition.

To explain case a in the figure, when the screw compressor is operating at full load and the amount of air supplied from the compressor is greater than the amount of air consumed, when the discharge side pressure reaches the upper limit pressure set value P□8. , the screw compressor switches from full load operation to no load operation. There is no supply of air from the screw compressor, which is in a no-load operating state, and as the air in the storage tank is consumed, the discharge side pressure decreases. When the discharge side pressure decreases to the pressure lower limit pressure set value P m l n, the compressor switches from no-load operation to full-load operation, and the discharge side pressure increases. The same operation is repeated thereafter. If the differential pressure between the upper limit P+may and the lower limit P0° of the set pressure value is ΔP, and the ratio of the consumed air volume to the compressor air volume Q is q, the discharge side pressure during full load operation increases from P win to P max. The time Δ required for this and the time Δt2 required for the discharge side pressure to decrease from P m&X to P m1n during no-load operation are expressed by the following equation.

Δt=Δt1+Δt2 q(1q)PsQs 上式より空気消費率qが一定ならば、ΔPを小さくする

Δt=Δt1+Δt2 q(1q)PsQs According to the above equation, if the air consumption rate q is constant, Δt becomes shorter by decreasing ΔP. On the other hand, Δt generally needs to be greater than a certain value due to mechanical limitations of the capacity control device. The minimum value of 8t is Δjmin, and ΔP at that time is Δ
When P m I n, it becomes ■. Now, if we measure Δt at a certain ΔP in the actual operating state, the pressure difference ΔP m t becomes Δj man

Figure 4 shows the pressure drop rate dP,/dto of the discharge side pressure.
If is large, time is required to switch from no load to full load, so the discharge side pressure P may drop far beyond the lower limit pressure setting value Pan1□ as shown in curve 1iAc. The discharge side pressure P is the lower limit pressure setting value P0
This is an example in which the temperature is prevented from falling below . In this example, the relationship between the pressure drop rate dP,/dto and the overpressure ΔPc that decreases beyond the lower limit pressure set value P111n is measured in advance, and dPo/dto during operation is measured.
