surge is one of the two destructive factors in compressors. surge is the stream instability phenomenon in compressor that imposes severe damages to the compressors. nowadays, suppressingsurge phenomenon is one of the most important issues in oil and gas industries, especially when flow reduction or gas reflux is considered. according to moore-greitzer compressor model, this paper designs an act...

An unsteady nonlinear and extended version of the Moore-Greitzer model is developed to facilitate the synthesis of a quasilinear stall vibration controller. The controller is synthesised in two steps. The first step defines the equilibrium point and ensures that the desired equilibrium point is stable. In the second step, the margin of stability at the equilibrium point is tuned or increased by...

Abstract This paper describes the active control of the instabilities of an axial flow compressor using a fuzzy logic controller. The controller is designed using a genetic algorithm. The control variable is the throttle of the outlet valve, situated after the compressor. Simulation results show that the controller is able to control both the surge and the rotating stall in the critical operati...

The air separation plays an extremely important role in the development of metallurgical industry. And the air compressor which provides not only the required pressure air for the cooling equipment and refrigeration plant but also the raw material required for the separation plant is a key device in the air separation plant. Utilization of the air compressor is extremely extensive in many signi...

The air compressor plays an extremely important role in the production of air separation. It provides the required specifications of compressed air for the follow-up air separation processes. It is difficult for an air compressor system to achieve the on-site production requirements because it is a time-varying, delay and nonlinear complex system. Articles for air compressor control system desi...

In this paper we develop a globally stabilizing stability-based switching controller for a three-state lumped parameter centrifugal compressor surge model. The proposed model involves pressure and mass flow compression system dynamics as well as spool dynamics to account for the influence of speed transients on the compression surge dynamics. The proposed nonlinear switching controller architec...

This paper proposes a novel robust adaptive fuzzy controller for uncertain nonlinear systems with external disturbance. At first, the definitions of compressor and limiter with adjustable parameters are described, an adaptive fuzzy controller with updated laws of the parameters in compressor and estimate values of the fuzzy approximation accuracies is introduced. It is do not need special atten...

This paper presents the development and experimental implementation of an online, fully nonlinear model predictive controller (NMPC) for a gas turbine. The reduced-order, internal model used in the controller was developed from an original high-order, physics-based model using rigorous time scale separation arguments that may be extended to any gas turbine system. A control problem for a protot...

This paper proposes a robust design scheme for the control of surge phenomenon appearing in a centrifugal compressor. It is known the surge instability in compressor might lead to reduce the operating efficiency and even damage the machinery while both of unstable compressor characteristics and compressor load torque are hard to exactly measure in the practical application. Based on the assumpt...

Considering the high consumption of the air compressors, a control system of screw compressor is designed and implemented to deal with energy saving and localization of mentioned compressor. In this paper the variable speed drive (VSD) control algorithm based on proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller is optimized to decrease power consumption and more stable motor speed and outlet pr...
