Selection of the Method for Reciprocating Compressor Capacity Control When the Suction Gas Temperature Changes

The article demonstrates the necessity of controlling the volumetric capacity of the fuel compressor to maintain a constant pressure at the inlet to the combustion chamber when the temperature of the gas at the suction is changing. The turbine consumption remains constant over time. The range of change in the reciprocating fuel compressor volumetric capacity is determined depending on the change in the intake gas temperature. The possibility of capacity regulation by changing the shaft speed and connecting an additional dead volume is considered. The available regulation depth is determined.
