Compressor
Acompressor is « mechanical device that increases the pressure ofa gas by reducing its volume,
An aircompressor isa specific type of gas compressor.
Compressors are similar to pumps: both inerease the pressure on a fluid and both ean transport the
uid through a pipe. As gases are compressible, te compressor also reduces the volume of a gas
Liquids are atively incompressible; while some ean be compressed, the main action ofa pump is

Reciprocating compressors
Reciprocating compressors use pistons driven by a crankshaft. They can be either stationary or
portable, can be single or multi-staged, and can be driven by electri motors or internal combustion
engines "I2I8] small reciprocating compressors from 5 to:30 horsepower (hp) are commonly seea in

Discharge pressures ean range from low pressure to very igh pressure (>18000 psi or 180 MPa). In

rotary units! Another type of reciprocating compressor, usually employed in automotive cabin sir

Rotary vane compressors
Rotary vane compressors consist of a rotor with a number of blades inserted in radial slots in
‘he rotor, The rotor is mounted offset in a langer housing that is either circular or a more complex.
shape. As the rotor turns, blades slide in and out of the slots keeping contact with the outer wall of
‘thehousing."Thus, a series of increasing and decreasing volumes is ereated by the rotating blades.
Rotary Vane compressors are, with piston compressors one of the oldest of compressor
technologies.
With suitable port connections, the devices may be ether a compressor or a vacuumn pump. They
can be either stationary or portable, can be single or multi-staged, and can be driven by electric
‘motors or intemal combustion engines. Dry vane machines are used at relatively low pressures
(eg, 2 bar or 200 kPa or 29 psi) for bulk material movement while oil-injected machines have the
necessary volumetric eficiency to achieve pressures up to about 13 bar (1,300 kPa; 190 psi) in @
single stage. A rotary vane compressor is well suited to electric motor drive and is significantly
‘quieter in operation than the equivalent piston compressor,
Rotary vane compressors can have mechanical efficiencies of about 90%.91
Rolling piston

“This type of compressor was used as the supercharger on Volkswagen G60 and G40
engines in the early 1990s.
Diaphragm compressors
A diaphragm compressor (also known as a membrane compressor) is 2 variant of the
conventional reciprocating compressor. The compression of gas occurs by the movement of a
flexible membrane, instead of an intake element. The back and forth movement of the membrane is
driven by @ rod and a crankshaft mechanism, Only the membrane and the compressor box come in
contact with the gas being compressed")
“The degree of flexing and the material constituting the diaphragm affects the maintenance life of
the equipment. Generally stiff metel diaphragms may only displace a few cubie centimeters of,

Contriftugal compressors
Centrifugal compressors use a rlating disk or impeller in a shaped housing to force the gas to
therim ofthe impeller, increasing the velocity of the gas. A diffuser (Aivergent duet) section convests
the velocity energy to pressure energy. They are primarily used for continuous, stationary service in
industries such as oll refineries, chemical and petrochemical plants and natural gas processing
plants.!"E°7I08i Their application can be from 100 horsepower (75 kW) to thousands of horsepower,
‘With multiple staging, they ean achieve high output pressures greater than 10,000 psi (69 MPa).

Diagonal or mixed-flow compressors
Diagonal or mixed-flow compressors are similar to centrifugal compressors, but have a radial and axial velocity component at the exit
fom the rolor. The diffuser is often used lo turn diagonal flow to an axial rather than radial direction. ("9 Comparative to the conventional
centrifugal compressor (f the same stage pressure ratio), the value of the speed of the mixed flow compressors 1.5 times larger.)
‘Axialflow compressors
Axial-flow compressors are dynamic rotating compressors that use arrays of fan-like airfoils to
progressively compress a uid. They are used where high flow rates or a compact design are
required
“The arrays of airfoils are set in rows, usually as pairs: one rotating and one stationary. The rotating. BD
airfoils, also known as blades or rotors, accelerate the fluid. The stationary airfoils, also known as
‘stators or vanes, decelerate and redirect the flow direction of the fluid, preparing it forthe rotor

Axial compressors can have high efficiencies; around 90% polytropie at their design conditions. However, they are relatively expensive,
requiring a large number of components tight tolerances and high quality materials, Axial-ow compressors are used in medium to lage gas
turbine engines, natural gas pumping stations, and some chemical plants.
Hermetically sealed, open, or semi-hermetic
Compressors used in refrigeration systems are often described as being cither hermetic, open, or
semi-hermetic, to describe how the compressor and motor drive are situated in relation to the gas or
-vapor being compressed. The industry name fora hermetic is hermetically sealed compressor,
“while a semi-hermetic is commonly called a semi-hermetic compressor.
In hermetic and most semichermetic compressors, the compressor and motor driving the
compressor are integrated, and operate within the pressurized gas envelope of the system. The
‘motoris designed to operate in, and be cooled by, the refrigerant gas being compressed.
‘The difference between the hermetic and semf-hermetic, is that the hermetic uses a one-piece A small ermetically sealed

then the seals begin to leak until the system is no longer functional and must be recharged. ly
comparison, a hermetic system can sit unused for years, and can usually be started up again at any time without requiring maintenance or
experiencing any loss of system pressure.
“The disadvantage of hermetic compressors is that the motor drive cannot be repaired or maint
1ed, and the entire compressor must be
replaced ifa motor fils. A further disadvantage is that burnt-out windings can contaminate whole systems, thercby requiring the system to be
entirely pumped down and the gas replaced. Typically, hermetic compressors are used in low-cost factory-assembled consumer goods where
the cost of epairis high compared to the value of the deviee, and it would be more economical to just purchase a new device

Adiabatic compression or expansion more closely model real life when a compressor has good inswlation, a large gas volume, or a short time
scale (i..,a high power level). In practice there will always be a certain amount of heat flow out of the compressed gas. Thus, making a perfect
adiabatic compressor would require perfect heat insulation of all parts of the machine. For example, even a bieyele tire pump’s metal tube
‘becomes hot as you compress the air to fill a tire. The relation between temperature and compression ratio described abave means that the
value of n foran adiabatie process is k (the ratio of specific heats).

Staged compression
In the ease of centrifugal compressors, commercial designs currently do not excead a compression ratio of more than 3.5 to 1 in any one stage
(or atypical gas). Since compression raises the temperature, the compressed gas is to be cooled between stages making the compression less
adiabatic and more isothermal. The inter-stage coolers typically result in some partial condensation that is removed in vapor-liquid
separators.
In the ease of small reciprocating compressors, the compressor flywhoel may drive a cooling fen that directs ambien!
ofa two or more stage compressor.
Because rotary screw compressors can make use of cooling Lubricant to reduce the temperature rise from compression, they very often exceed @
9 to 1 compression ratio, For instance, ina typical diving compressor the air is compressed in three stages. If each stage has a compression
ratio of7t01, the compressor can output 343 times atmospheric pressure (7 x 7 x 7 = 243 atmospheres). (343 atm or 34.8 MPa oF §.04 ksi)
