Centrifugal Compressor Surge Control Methods PDF

The document discusses four methods of centrifugal compressor surge control: 1. Surge control with a simple minimum flow cold bypass between the discharge and suction sides. 2. Surge control with suction flow altering or resetting compressor speed to meet discharge pressure requirements. 3. Surge control with speed or inlet guide vane altering or resetting the cold flow bypass. 4. Surge control using differential pressure across the compressor suction and discharge to alter or reset the minimum flow cold bypass.
