Abstract
Apparatuses and methods for constructively utilizing pressure pulses to enhance the volumetric efficiency of a reciprocating compressor are provided. An apparatus includes a gas circulation device and a controller. The gas circulation device provides a path through which the gas circulates between a reciprocating compressor and a volume bottle buffering the reciprocating compressor from an installation. The gas circulation device is configured to have a resonance frequency substantially equal to a frequency of the performing compression cycles in the reciprocating compressor. The controller is configured to control timing of switching a valve located between the reciprocating compressor and the gas circulation device in order to constructively use pressure pulsations occurring in the gas circulation device, to enhance the volumetric efficiency of the reciprocating compressor.
