Polyester yarn

Yarn textile enterprises generally use air-jet looms to produce, and air compressor as the power source of air-jet loom equipment, its energy consumption directly affects the production costs of yarn enterprises. Let's analyze the influence of wet air on the energy consumption of yarn air compressor.

What is the effect of wet air on yarn textile air compressor?

Yarn textile enterprises generally use air-jet looms to produce, and air compressor as the power source of air-jet loom equipment, its energy consumption directly affects the production costs of yarn enterprises. Let's analyze the influence of wet air on the energy consumption of yarn air compressor.

General textile enterprises use more air compressor equipment, and require a small moisture content in the air, a single air consumption is very large, so the power loss is also high.

In order to save electricity and select high performance yarn air compressor equipment, these yarn enterprises often reduce the power consumption per unit of production, but ignore the influence of imported air state on the performance of air compressor and its system in the process of operation management and maintenance outside the air compressor.

1. Transfer process of wet air in yarn compression system

When the untreated wet air passes through the yarn air compressor at high pressure, it is easy to reach dew point temperature and produce condensation water. 

Moreover, the cold sensation effect of the technological design of the dryer is limited, and the vapor in the high-pressure air can not be completely removed, which makes the temperature difference between inside and outside the pipeline and the flow resistance of the conveying air. 

Under the influence of other factors, further condensation occurs. 

Most of the condensation water reaches the gas point with compressed air, and finally sprays out from the nozzle.

2. Effect of wet air on yarn air compressor

From the above analysis, it can be seen that when the humid air in the atmosphere enters the yarn air compressor, the condensate water produced by the saturation of the back of the equipment is usually not easy to discharge, which will cause erosion and wear to the sliding valve or even screw of the screw air compressor, thus increasing the friction between the two, reducing the compression ratio and affecting its operation efficiency.

3. Effect of wet Air on pipeline of yarn air compressor

Air compressor pipes are generally not insulated and run under high pressure all the year round. Noise caused by water hammer and vibration can often be heard in some low places. What causes it?

In addition to the high speed of air pressure system when conveying air flow, the condensate water generated by wet air can not be effectively removed during operation, which also causes huge noise. Therefore, in order to reduce the occurrence of this phenomenon, regular drainage and exhaust devices should be installed in the pipeline transportation process or at the end of the pipeline.

4. Effect of wet air on textile equipment

Yarn textile workshop often has high humidity. If it is not maintained regularly, the newly purchased brand-new equipment may rust within a few years. This is not only related to the external environment of perennial operation, but also to the corrosion caused by the condensation of water in compressed air.

5. The influence of untreated air on yarn textile production in heavily polluted areas

In some places where air pollution is serious, the air is directly absorbed into the yarn air compressor without the treatment of filters. The dust contained in the air compressor not only causes wear and tear to the yarn air compressor and air compressor system, but also harms the health of workers if it is combined with condensate water and gathers in the air pressure system or pipeline, breeding bacteria and endangering the health of workers. Kang even enters the workshop with compressed air, causing product contamination and affecting product quality.

Filtration and dehumidification device is added to the suction port of yarn air compressor and pipeline. Steel wire filter and filter can be installed at the suction port. The pipeline can be cleaned and replaced regularly. Solid adsorption drying measures can be adopted in the pipeline. Dehumidification unit can also be installed in areas with high humidity to reduce moisture content in the air.
