Compressor Surge and Stall: An Introduction

  • Chapter
Compressor Surge and Rotating Stall

Part of the book series: Advances in Industrial Control ((AIC))

Abstract

In this monograph, results from an investigation on nonlinear compressor control where active control is used to stabilize the compressor to the left of the surge line are presented. New results within the field of compressor modeling are also included. The work is motivated by the fundamental instability problem of surge and rotating stall which limits the range of operation for compressors at low mass flows.
