Zusammenfassung:The efficiency and onstream time of axial and centrifugal compressors is important for many production units and utility systems. Surge, in particular, can cause system downtime and increase energy use. The flow reversals every few seconds cause severe vibrations that can damage compressor seals and shafts reducing compressor efficiency. And the loss of forward flow often initiates shutdowns of production lines. This book provides a comprehensive view of compressor surge and stall based on first principles and case histories. The process and installation conditions that affect the surge curve and the severity of surge are detailed along with the dynamics of the surge cycle. Solutions are offered to reduce the occurrence and consequences of surge.
