In the following description, for purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the claimed subject matter. It may be evident, however, that the claimed subject matter may be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, structures and devices are shown in block diagram form in order to facilitate describing the claimed subject matter.
- Large industrial compressors are used in multiple applications across the world ranging from liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) loading/unloading, gas lift operations, hydrogen compression, and various other aspects of gas compression across the globe. Most compressors of this size and nature (e.g., 5-500+ Horse Power) utilize a packing scheme to: 1) mitigate oil carry over from the crankcase to the process gas; 2) mitigate process gas contamination in the compressor crankcase/mechanical chambers; and 3) mitigate process gas leakage into the operating environment (e.g., environmental leaks).
- In most cases the existing packaging scheme is composed of either a series of v-ring lip type seals that are stacked together, or that are arranged in a segmented arrangement, depending on application needs. The inventive concept described herein was inspired by the current state of packing design across the compressor industry, and a need to improve compressor efficiencies, and to reduce adverse effects on the environment due to leakage of either process gas or oil.
- The inventive concept described herein allows for a new packing design which separates both chambers from each other, and mitigates carry over potential of oil to process gas, while also reducing leak potential by providing a diaphragm. Such as design will not wear out as often due to piston stroke, but instead stays in motion with the piston rod.
- The inventive concept described herein can incorporate a packing diaphragm created from a flexible elastomer material, which can be utilized as a seal between the compression chamber (e.g., comprising process gas) and the mechanical work chamber (e.g., crankcase, crosshead guide). As an example, the diaphragm may be made of materials that are appropriate for the target use, such as to accommodate specific products that may come into contact with the diaphragm. For example, the diaphragm may comprise Teflon, Viton, nitrile silicone, EPDM rubber (ethylene propylene diene monomer (M-class) rubber), or any other flexible and appropriate thermoplastic or rubber that could be used as a diaphragm.
- As seen in
FIG. 1 , an existing standard packing cartridge in acompressor 100 incorporates a packing barrel 102 (e.g., or barrels), and possibly awiper 104 to separate the two chambers via a wear component (e.g., a v-ring or segmented packing set), which is stationary and wears as thepiston rod 106 moves up/down to compress the process gas. Typically, the pressure in the crankcase portion is 5 to 30 PSI; and leakage often occurs from the compression chamber. - As seen in
FIGS. 2A, 2B, 2C, 3A, and 3B , utilizing the inventive concept described herein, acompressor 200 that may be in a vertical or horizontal position. Thecompressor 200 can comprise a first chamber orcompression chamber 218. In one implementation, thecompressor 200 may also comprise a second chamber fluidly coupled with the first chamber. The second chamber may be amechanical work chamber 216. A reciprocatingpiston 220 may be disposed in thecompression chamber 218. Apiston rod 212 may be operably connected to thepiston 220. Therod 212 may extend from the first chamber orcompression chamber 218 and through the second chamber ormechanical work chamber 218. A diaphragm may be configured to fluidly separate the first chamber and the second chamber. Thediaphragm 210 may have a process side and an environment side, wherein environment material on the environment side is prevented from entering the process side, and process material on the process side is prevented from entering the environment side. In another implementation, thediaphragm 210 may be disposed in themechanical work chamber 216. In another implementation, the diaphragm may be disposed between thecompression chamber 218 and themechanical work chamber 216. Thediaphragm 210 may comprise a single unitary piece. The diaphragm may be utilized as a flexible seal that can be installed and fixedly attached to thepiston rod 212 and thechamber walls 214 between themechanical work chamber 216 and thecompressor chamber 218. With thediaphragm 210 being sealingly connected to thechamber walls 214, thecompression chamber 218 and themechanical work chamber 216 may be completely separated. Further, thediaphragm 210 may be a packing diaphragm. In one implementation, thediaphragm 210 may have aprocess side 222 and anenvironment side 224. Theprocess side 222 encounters product entering and exiting thecompression chamber 218. Process material may include product gas, such as, but not limited to liquid propane gas, gas lift, hydrogen, butane, or other process gas being acted upon by thepiston 220. Theenvironment side 224 of the diaphragm may encounter other aspects of the compressor and environment material such as, but not limited to lubricating fluid such as oil. As shown inFIGS. 2A-2C , themechanical work chamber 216 is free of packing wear components, such as a packing 102 andwiper 104, but not limited thereto. With thediaphragm 210 separating thecompression chamber 216 from themechanical work chamber 218, the diaphragm is configured to prevent transfer of the undesired fluid on the environment side from entering thecompression chamber 216, and rising contamination of the product being compressed in the compression chamber, for example, process gas. - In the example of
FIG. 2A , thediaphragm 210 can move up with the compressor upstroke of thepiston rod 212. In the upstroke position, the diaphragm may comprise a convex shape. InFIG. 2B thediaphragm 210 can move down with the compressor downstroke of thepiston rod 212. In one implementation, the diaphragm may comprise a concave shape. Further, inFIG. 2C thediaphragm 210 can be centered (e.g., not flexed), and disposed at the midpoint of the compressor stroke of thepiston rod 212. - As an example, as the compressor turns through one full rotation, one full compression cycle may be completed and the
diaphragm 210 can move from bottom dead center to top dead center. This process can repeat with every rotation of thecompressor crankshaft 230, which may be operably coupled to thepiston rod 212. In other words, one rotation of thecrank shaft 230 may comprise thediaphragm 210 comprising an upstroke position, a center position, a downstroke position, a center position and returning to the upstroke position. - In one nonlimiting example, the
compressor 200 may further comprise afirst stage inlet 232 fluidly coupled with afirst stage outlet 234. Thefirst stage inlet 232 and thefirst stage outlet 234 may be operably coupled with themechanical work chamber 216 with valves such that product can enter and exit thecompression chamber 218. The compressor may be further comprise asecond stage inlet 238 and asecond stage outlet 240. Thesecond stage inlet 238 and thesecond stage outlet 234 may be positioned adjacent to or above thecompression chamber 218. The second stage inlet may be fluidly coupled with thefirst stage outlet 234 and thesecond stage outlet 240. Valves fluidly coupled with thesecond stage inlet 238 and thesecond stage outlet 240 may further regulate product, such as process gas, being passed through thecompressor 200. Thecompressor 200 may also comprise acrosshead 242 as shown inFIG. 3C , which may be disposed within themechanical work chamber 216. Thediaphragm 210 may be disposed between thecrosshead 242 and thecompression chamber 218. - In yet another implementation, two separate rods for two separate chambers both utilizing the diaphragm. In another nonlimiting implementation shown in
FIG. 4 , thecompressor 200 may comprise a parallel configuration where the compressor may comprise a dual throw crankshaft and two separate piston/piston rod assemblies, both of which could use adiaphragm 210. - This inventive concept described herein could be used in practically any compression application where the purity of the process gas is very important, and contamination could potentially ruin the end product gas and/or components downstream from the compressor. Further, the inventive concept described herein would reduce any process gas leakage to the mechanical work chamber, and out to the operating environment. The inventive concept described herein is novel because it eliminates the typical packing wear component (e.g.,
FIG. 1 ), which deteriorates over time due to friction/heat between the piston rod and the packing material. For example, by utilizing a moving packing material (e.g., the flexible diaphragm) the heat created by friction between the two components can be mitigated, and the need to replace worn packing material is also mitigated. - This inventive concept described herein comprises and improvement over existing technology for at least the following reasons. Reduced maintenance intervals on the pumps are achieved because the wear component (e.g., packing v-rings or segments) of existing compressors will not need to be replaced often. Further, leakage reduction to the atmosphere and mechanical work chamber may occur due to improved sealing between the
pump chambers compression chamber 218 may occur due to improved sealing of thediaphragm 210. In addition, example implementations described herein may achieve better compliance with ever increasing emphasis on emission standards. - The word “exemplary” is used herein to mean serving as an example, instance or illustration. Any aspect or design described herein as “exemplary” is not necessarily to be construed as advantageous over other aspects or designs. Rather, use of the word exemplary is intended to present concepts in a concrete fashion. As used in this application, the term “or” is intended to mean an inclusive “or” rather than an exclusive “or.” That is, unless specified otherwise, or clear from context, “X employs A or B” is intended to mean any of the natural inclusive permutations. That is, if X employs A; X employs B; or X employs both A and B, then “X employs A or B” is satisfied under any of the foregoing instances. Further, At least one of A and B and/or the like generally means A or B or both A and B. In addition, the articles “a” and “an” as used in this application and the appended claims may generally be construed to mean “one or more” unless specified otherwise or clear from context to be directed to a singular form.
- Although the subject matter has been described in language specific to structural features and/or methodological acts, it is to be understood that the subject matter defined in the appended claims is not necessarily limited to the specific features or acts described above. Rather, the specific features and acts described above are disclosed as example forms of implementing the claims.
- Also, although the disclosure has been shown and described with respect to one or more implementations, equivalent alterations and modifications will occur to others skilled in the art based upon a reading and understanding of this specification and the annexed drawings. The disclosure includes all such modifications and alterations and is limited only by the scope of the following claims. In particular regard to the various functions performed by the above described components (e.g., elements, resources, etc.), the terms used to describe such components are intended to correspond, unless otherwise indicated, to any component which performs the specified function of the described component (e.g., that is functionally equivalent), even though not structurally equivalent to the disclosed structure which performs the function in the herein illustrated exemplary implementations of the disclosure. In addition, while a particular feature of the disclosure may have been disclosed with respect to only one of several implementations, such feature may be combined with one or more other features of the other implementations as may be desired and advantageous for any given or particular application. Furthermore, to the extent that the terms “includes,” “having,” “has,” “with,” or variants thereof are used in either the detailed description or the claims, such terms are intended to be inclusive in a manner similar to the term “comprising.”
