Definitions
- the invention relates to a machine for compressing a fluid, comprising several compression stages in series constituted by compressors of different types.
- centrifugal compressors When it is desired to obtain fluid flow rates of the order of a few hundred to a few tens of thousands of m 3 per hour at a pressure between approximately 100-150 and 300-350 bars, it is already known to associate centrifugal compressors to reciprocating piston compressors or to screw compressors, the fluid being compressed first by centrifugal compressors, then by piston or screw compressors.
- Such a set of compressors can in particular produce compressed gas intended to be injected into an oil table (which can be underground or underwater) for enhanced oil recovery.
- This known method of exploiting an oil field is characterized, among other things, by a reduction in the gas flow rate required as the oil is extracted.
- This reduction in flow rate constitutes a major drawback when the compressed gas is supplied by a set of centrifugal compressors and piston or screw compressors, since there is then a risk of reaching the "pumping limit", below which there are oscillated very high pressure and vibrations that can destroy the compressors.
- piston or screw compressors which are associated with centrifugal compressors have their own drawbacks: significant cost and size, frequent and expensive maintenance, noise and vibrations in operation. They must also be connected by gear boxes to the drive means of the centrifugal compressors.
- the invention particularly relates to a fluid compression machine, operating in the above range of flow rates and pressures, which has none of the drawbacks of the prior art.
- the invention also relates to a machine of this type which is compact, unitary and compact.
- the invention also relates to a machine of this type having a reliability much higher than that of equivalent machines of the prior art.
- a fluid compression machine intended in particular to deliver a fluid flow rate of the order of a few hundred to a few tens of thousands of m 3 per hour at a pressure of between 150 and 300 bars approximately.
- a fluid compression machine comprising several compression stages in series constituted by compressors of different types, characterized by the combination of at least one centrifugal compressor forming an input stage of the machine and at least one peripheral compressor forming a stage of out of this machine.
- peripheral compressors which can also be called in the pulse compressors, recovery compressors, friction compressors
- centrifugal compressors makes it possible to obtain a particularly compact machine in which the rotors of the peripheral compressors have diameters at roughly equal to those of the rotors of centrifugal compressors and can be driven at the same speed of rotation as the rotors of centrifugal compressors, which allows all the compressors to be mounted on the same rotary drive shaft.
- peripheral compressors do not exhibit any pumping phenomenon when the fluid flow rate decreases and make it possible to obtain manometric powers several times higher than those of centrifugal compressors.
- the machine according to the invention can therefore comprise centrifugal compressors which are less loaded than those of equivalent prior machines and which are less sensitive to the pumping phenomenon, without having to multiply their number.
- centrifugal compressors and the peripheral compressors mounted on the same drive shaft can be housed in the same casing, of which possibly only one end is leaktightly crossed by the drive shaft, the free end of this shaft being received with the interposition of a thrust bearing in a blind housing at the other end of the casing.
- the drive shaft of the centrifugal and peripheral compressors of the machine can be in direct engagement with an appropriate motor means, such as a gas turbine.
- the machine according to the invention thus combines, in the same casing and on the same drive shaft in direct engagement with the medium motor, centrifugal compressors and peripheral compressors ensuring all the compression of the fluid.
- FIG. 1 represents, by way of example, a particularly advantageous application of the invention to an enhanced oil recovery process.
- This method consists in injecting a pressurized gas, for example carbon dioxide, into an oil field 10 which can be underground or underwater, to assist the ascent of oil to the surface in a well or a extraction duct 12.
- a pressurized gas for example carbon dioxide
- the gas used is supplied by an appropriate source 14, for example a combustion unit supplied by a natural gas field, a urea synthesis plant, etc.
- the carbon dioxide supplied by the source 14 is at a pressure of, for example, between 1 and 20 bars, which can be raised to 150 bars by a compression station 16 supplying a gas pipeline 18 bringing the compressed gas into the region of the oilfield.
- Recompression stations 20 are provided from place to place on the gas pipeline 18 to compensate for the pressure losses, for example by raising the pressure of the carbon dioxide from 80 bars to approximately 150 bars.
- a final compression station 22 increases the pressure of the carbon dioxide from 80 bars to around 250 or 300 bars, for injection into the oil field 10.
- Carbon dioxide flow rates are typically of the order of a few hundred to a few thousand tonnes per day, and the flow of compressed carbon dioxide which must be injected into the oil table gradually decreases as the deposit is exploited.
- the compression machines according to the invention are particularly intended to equip stations 16, 20 and 22.
- the machine of FIG. 2 comprises a single casing constituted by a cylindrical tubular body 24 and two end flanges 26 and 28 fixed to sealing on the ends of the body 24.
- a drive shaft 30 extends axially in the body 24 and is received at its end in a blind housing 32 of the end flange 28, by means of a rotation bearing 34 and an axial thrust bearing 36.
- the shaft 30 sealingly passes through a cylindrical passage 38 of the end plate 26, by means of seals 40, and of rotation bearings 42.
- the end of the shaft 30 external to the casing is driven in rotation in direct engagement by a suitable motor, for example a gas turbine.
- the stators (not shown) of the centrifugal compressors C1, C2, ..., and those S n-1 , S of the peripheral compressors are contained in the body 24 of the casing and are supported directly by the latter.
- a gas supply pipe 44 passes through the body 24 of the casing in leaktightness and leads to the inlet of the first centrifugal compressor C1.
- the outlet of this compressor C1 is connected, inside the body 24, to the inlet of the second centrifugal compressor C2, as shown diagrammatically in 46, and so on.
- provision may be made to cool the compressed gas by passage through an outside heat exchanger 48 laughing at the machine housing.
- the exchanger 48 is connected, through the body 24, to the outlet of a compressor and to the inlet of the next compressor, as shown diagrammatically at 50 and 52 in the drawing.
- the output of the peripheral compressor P n-1 is connected to the input of the peripheral compressor P n as shown diagrammatically at 54, and that the output of this compressor P, which forms the last compression stage of the machine, is sealingly connected through the body 24 to the outlet pipe 56 of the machine.
- a peripheral compressor or recovery compressor comprises a rotor R with blades or blades rotating in an annular compression chamber formed by the stator of the compressor.
- annular compression chamber In this annular compression chamber is fixed a sealing cap 0 having a slot through which the vanes a of the rotor R pass through with a small clearance.
- the fluid inlet and outlet conduits open into the annular compression chamber respectively. and on the other side of the seal O.
- the centrifugal compressors and the peripheral compressors are mounted on the drive shaft 30 so that the axial thrust F1 developed by the centrifugal compressors is opposite to the axial thrust F2 developed by the peripheral compressors, which allows, if not cancel, at least reduce the axial thrust exerted by the shaft 30 on the end plate 28 of the housing.
- the heat exchangers 48 cool the compressed gas whenever necessary between two compression stages.
- the machine according to the invention is intended in particular for the compression of a gas whose flow rate varies between a few hundred and a few thousand tonnes per day, and is moreover capable of gradually decreasing over time.
- peripheral compressors in output stages of the machine makes it possible, on the one hand, to make the centrifugal compressors forming the input stages of the machine less sensitive to the pumping phenomenon and, on the other hand, to associate in the same casing and on the same drive shaft, the various compression stages, thanks to the identity of the dimensions and the speeds of rotation of the centrifugal compressors and of the peripheral compressors.
- the invention is also applicable to the supply of a pressurized liquid, for example by compression of a gas by centrifugal compressors, liquefaction of this gas by passage through a heat exchanger external to the machine, then by compression of the liquid by peripheral compressors.
- a machine equipping the station 22 for injecting compressed carbon dioxide into the oil table 10
- a gas turbine supplying a power of the order of a few megawatts and driving the shaft 30 at a speed of the order of 10,000-12,000 revolutions per minute, the shaft 30 having a diameter of approximately 200 mm, the rotors of the centrifugal compressors and of the peripheral compressors having diameters of in the range of 400 to 500 mm.
- the flow of carbon dioxide supplied to the machine can be of the order of 800-1000 tonnes per day, the inlet pressure is of the order of 80 bars, the outlet pressure is of the order of 250-300 bars.
- another gas for example nitrogen, could be used to propel carbon dioxide.
