Function - take a definite quantity of fluid and deliver it at a required pressure.

Usually a gas, and most often air use.

Introduction

Compressor

Centrifugal Compressor

velocity and pressure given to air or gas in a radial direction by one or more impellers diffuser combination.

The centrifugal compressor may be single stage or multistage.

Multistage Compressor

Multistage containing a series of impellers on a single shaft rotating at high speed in a massive casing internal channel

It lead from the discharge of one impeller to the inlet of next these machines and compress measure volumes of air.

Surge

Surge is the BACKFLOW of gas in compressor. Sustain oscillation Important element it protects the compressor from

surge over the range of compressor operations.

Surge Description

Flow reverses in 20 to 50 milisec. Surge cycle at a rate of 0.3 to 3 sec. Compressor Vibrates. Temperature rises. Whooshing noise. Trips may occur.

IF OPERATING POINT CROSSES THE SOL LINE THE COMP IS IN SURGE

SO RESPONSE SHIFTS THE SCL AND RTL TO RIGHT

What we have presented so far in this presentation is that what is surge and it’s generation. In this presentation we discussed characteristics of compressor, phenomenon of surge like surge process, surge cycle, surge point, surge line, surge control line, surge margin etc. We also mentioned here causes of surge in centrifugal compressor and it’s effect and consequence centrifugal compressor and also the prevention of surge occurrence(Anti-surge system).
