Liquid jet Gas Compressor
Liquid jet Gas Compressor are simple devices that operate on the basis of the jet Venturi principle.
Liquid jet Gas Compressor typically have 3 connections
- 1. High Pressure(HP) Liquid Inlet
- 2. Gas Suction
- 3. Outlet
During operation Liquid jet Gas Compressors are able to create a pressure differential across its Suction and outlet. Liquid jet Gas Compressors utilize the energy in pumped liquid entering from the HP liquid inlet to create this pressure differential.
This enables Liquid jet Gas Compressor to be used for creating vacuum / low pressure at its suction. The low pressure allows the Liquid jet Gas Compressor to suck gases through the suction. The suction gas mixes with the HP liquid inside the Ejector and gets pumped out from the Outlet. The discharge contains the mixture of HP liquid and suction gas. This phenomenon allows the Liquid jet Gas Compressor to be used for sucking and compressing gases.
The amount of gases sucked and the compression between Suction and Outlet depends upon the size of the Liquid jet Compressor and the internal construction.
Further the operating flows can be controlled by regulating the HP Liquid, Suction & Outlet Pressures.
