Centrifugal Compressor Working Principle
Centrifugal compressors achieve gas compression using centrifugal force through the following process:
- Gas intake: Low-pressure gas enters the compressor through the inlet.
- Centrifugal acceleration: The gas is accelerated by a high-speed rotating impeller, gaining speed and kinetic energy as centrifugal force pushes it outward.
- Energy conversion: As the gas moves into the compression chamber, the impeller’s kinetic energy is converted into pressure energy, efficiently increasing pressure via optimized channel and chamber design.
- Exhaust output: Compressed gas is discharged through the exhaust port at the required high pressure.
This highly efficient and continuous process makes centrifugal compressors ideal for industrial applications requiring long-term, high-flow, and high-pressure gas supply.
