In this work, two kinds of partial least squares modelling methods are applied to predict a compressor map: one uses a power function polynomial as the basis function (PLSO), and the other uses a ...

Abstract: Compressor maps are one of the main elements describing the behaviour of centrifugal compressors. Although the compressor map is often provided by the manufacturer, there may be changes ...

This software allows you to trace over a compressor map's efficiency and speed curves, so that the Compressor Reader code can interpolate between the curves and estimate the efficiency of a compressor ...

Centrifugal compressors are vital components within process plants. The capability to detect early indicators of malfunctions in these machines, and to identify and understand their causes and ...

A compressor going into stall is like jumping off a cliff with a bungee cord. If the bungee cord has no losses to dampen the oscillation, we have something akin to surge. A 0.5% drop in efficiency can ...
