We want to replace our existing ( twin lobe type ) roots blower with a
centrifugal compressor. Application is nitrogen used for heating / cooling
during startup / shutdown of ammonia plant. Service conditions are
Suction pressure = 2 to 4 kg/sqcmg
Discharge pressure = 4 to 6kg/sqcmg
Capacity - 40000nm3/hr
What are the options available other than roots blower or screw compressor.
Based on our operations / maintenance experience in the past our preference is
for an axially split casing type centrifugal compressor.
Will anybody share experience ( especially regarding integral gear type
centrifugal machines also )
