Internal hot gas bypass device coupled with inlet guide vane for centrifugal compressor

Abstract

An internal hot gas bypass device coupled with inlet guide vane for centrifugal compressor includes an inlet guide vane assembly, a driving motor assembly and a gas bypass valve assembly. The inlet guide vane assembly further includes a master vane, a plurality of slave vanes, a vane-front fixing ring, a vane-rear fixing ring, a vane-driving ring, a connecting pipe and a vane-opening indicating disk. The driving motor assembly further includes a motor, a driving unit and a motor fixing base. The gas bypass valve assembly further includes a valve, an external fixing-and-guiding ring, an internal fixing-and-guiding ring, a driven element, a spring, a sealing ring, a valve stud and a valve base. The driving motor assembly is connected with the driving unit and the master vane of the inlet guide vane assembly via a connecting rod, and is further connected with the slave vanes of the gas bypass valve assembly.
