Gas Compressor Design & Operation

International Petroleum Exhibition and Technical Symposium, 1982
ABSTRACT Oil and gas production requires compression of gases involving considerable range of initial inlet and final discharge pressures as well as widely varying volumes. Frequently the applications are further complicated by the gas containing H2S or entrained liquids and equipment space/weight limitations imposed by offshore platform

Gas Compressors

2014
The choice of the type of compressor depends primarily on the required flow to be compressed, the density of the gas in conjunction with the total head (for a given gas, this is the compression ratio), and the duty which has to be performed. This chapter covers the minimum requirements, basic reference data, and necessary formulas for process ...

Performance of Hydraulic Gas Compressors

Journal of Fluids Engineering, 1976
A hydraulic gas compressor has no moving parts and compresses gas at the expense of hydraulic energy by means of entrainment in a downward moving column of liquid with subsequent separation of gas and liquid at depth. Documentation is cited giving the history and performance data for large hydraulic air compressors built around 1900.

Assessment of Compressors in Gas Storage Applications

Journal of Engineering for Gas Turbines and Power, 2009
An analytical model is generated that allows the evaluation of the compression system. It is also used to derive general rules for optimizing a system. Several strategies for the compression system (single compressors, multiple compressors with a single driver in series and parallel configuration, and multiple compressors with individual drivers) are ...

Concepts in Gas Compressor Station Configuration

All Days, 2011
Abstract The number of compressors installed in each compressor station of a pipeline system, as well as their arrangement, has a significant impact on the availability, fuel consumption and capacity of the system.

Facilities: Gas Compressors

2014
Gas compressors are mainly used in chemical and petrochemical industries; air compressors are widely used in every kind of industries for different purposes. Air compressor applications may be broadly classified as follows: (1) providing power, as in tools or other machines and in control systems for HVAC and for industrial equipment; (2) handling ...

Dynamic Compressor Optimization in Natural Gas Pipeline Systems

INFORMS journal on computing, 2019
The growing dependence of electric power systems on gas-fired generators to balance fluctuating and intermittent production by renewable energy sources has increased the variation and volume of flows withdrawn from natural gas transmission pipelines ...

Kinetics of a Gas Adsorption Compressor

1984
Gas adsorption has been suggested as a means to drive a J-T device for cryogenic cooling1. The system has the advantages of being heat powered, involving no sealing, having no mechanical moving parts and no active control. A multi-stage concept2 was proposed to meet the cooling temperatures requirement ranging from 4 K to 80 R, Preliminary ...

Interstage cooling in compressors [for gas turbines]

IECEC-97 Proceedings of the Thirty-Second Intersociety Energy Conversion Engineering Conference (Cat. No.97CH6203), 2002
Interstage cooling in air compressors presents pros and cons according to the purposes for which air is compressed and the systems up to now applied are very different among them. In this paper, cases in which intercooling is made by usual exchangers are firstly considered.
