Air Compressor Auxiliary Machine
Working Principle
Based on the principle of refrigerated air drying (cooling to dew point), the system utilizes refrigeration equipment to cool moist, hot compressed air to a specific dew point temperature (saturation temperature). At this stage, moisture condenses and is separated via a coalescing separator, while the liquid water is discharged through an automatic drain valve, achieving the desired dry air dew point.

Basic Structure

The system comprises three core components:

Refrigeration System

Heat Exchange System

Electrical Control System

Refrigeration System

Key components:

Refrigeration compressor

Evaporator

Condenser

Thermal expansion valve

Hot gas bypass valve

The refrigerant circulates continuously, undergoing phase changes and multiple heat exchanges to cool the compressed air.



Heat Exchange System

Core elements:

Precooler (or recuperative heat exchanger)

Evaporator tubes

Cyclonic separator


Functions:

Recovers cold energy from outgoing dry air.

Provides cooling space for incoming air.

Separates condensed liquid from air.




Electrical Control System

Components:

Contactors

Thermal overload relays

Time relays

Role:
Automates and safeguards the refrigeration system through precise control logic.

Workflow

Compressed Air Process

Incoming moist air enters the precooler, exchanging heat with outgoing cold, dry air.

Results in reduced enthalpy, temperature, and moisture content.

Partially dried air flows into the evaporator for further cooling via refrigerant heat exchange

Achieves target dew point at evaporator outlet.

Air-liquid mixture enters the cyclonic separator to remove condensed water.

Dry air returns to the precooler, reheats via incoming air, and exits the dryer.



Refrigerant Process

High-pressure gas from the compressor enters the condenser, releasing heat to liquefy.

Liquid refrigerant passes through a thermal expansion valve, becoming a low-pressure gas-liquid mixture.

In the evaporator, the refrigerant absorbs heat from compressed air and vaporizes.

Vaporized refrigerant returns to the compressor, completing the cycle.

Frost Prevention Mechanism
To prevent ice buildup on evaporator surfaces (critical for airflow stability):

A hot gas bypass valve regulates evaporation pressure.

When pressure drops excessively, the valve injects hot refrigerant gas to maintain evaporator surface temperatures above 0°C.
