　　Carbon dioxide compressor is a kind of mechanical equipment with important applications in many fields such as industry. They are not only used for the compression and transportation of industrial gases, but also play a key role in environmental protection technologies such as carbon capture and storage (CCS). The following Turbo-Tech will take you to discuss the structure and working principle of carbon dioxide compressor.

　　First, the structure of carbon dioxide compressor

　　Carbon dioxide compressor usually adopts centrifugal design, and the specific structure is as follows:

　　Impeller: Impeller is the core component of compressor, which is responsible for converting mechanical energy of motor into pressure energy and kinetic energy of gas. The design of impeller is very important to the efficiency and performance of compressor.

　　Volute: The volute surrounds the impeller, guiding the gas to flow and collecting the compressed gas coming out of the impeller to reduce the pressure loss.

　　Bearing system: support the rotation of impeller, reduce friction and ensure stable operation.

　　Sealing system: to prevent gas leakage and foreign impurities from entering, usually including labyrinth seal, mechanical seal or dry gas seal.

　　Driving device: including motor and coupling, which transfers the torque of motor to impeller.

　　Control system: Monitor and adjust the operating parameters of the compressor, such as speed, temperature, pressure, etc.

　　Cooling system: maintain the better working temperature of the compressor to prevent overheating.

　　Second, the working principle of centrifugal carbon dioxide compressor

　　When the motor drives the impeller to rotate, the gas is sucked into the impeller and accelerated in the radial direction under the push of the impeller blades. Driven by the impeller, gas flows from the center of the impeller to the edge, and the pressure energy is also improved as the speed increases. The gas compressed by the impeller enters the volute, and the volute collects and guides the gas to the outlet to complete the compression process.

　　Carbon dioxide compressors are mainly used in the following fields (including but not limited to):

　　Industrial gas transportation: used to transport carbon dioxide gas to meet the needs of industrial production.

　　Food and beverage industry: used for the production of carbonated drinks, providing carbon dioxide gas.

　　Environmental protection technology: In the carbon capture and storage (CCS) project, it is used to compress and transport the captured carbon dioxide gas and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

　　The above content is a deep analysis of the structure principle of carbon dioxide compressor. Understanding the structure and working principle of carbon dioxide compressor is helpful to optimize the operation and maintenance and ensure the stable operation of the equipment.
