 INTRODUCTION

1.1. GENERAL FEATURES

For each compressor speed, it is possible to determine a curve on the SUCTION FLOW – COMPRESSION RATIO plane that describes all compressor operating
points at any given speed. Each obtained curve meets its limits on the surge point, corresponding to the maximum polytropic head. All surge points, defined for
different speeds represent the surge limit line (SLL), on the left of this line the compressor operates in an unstable area.

The purpose of the “ANTISURGE CONTROL SYSTEM” is to avoid that the operating point “A” reaches the “SLL”. To achieve this objective, a protection line is defined
on the right of the “SLL”, where (point “B”) the control system will operate opening the antisurge valve. This line is called “SURGE CONTROL LINE” (“SCL”). The
opening of the antisurge valve increases the suction flow moving the operating point along the speed characteristic curve, from the critical condition to the
stable operating area (fig. 1).

 1.3. SURGE LIMIT LINE
Surge Limit Line (SLL) separates surge area from safe area and is defined in either reduced head or pressure ratio vs reduced volumetric flow coordinates. The
reduced head method implies the calculation of the polytrophic coefficient m.
The basic form of the SLL is:

𝑞𝑆𝐿𝐿 = 𝑓𝑆𝐿𝐿 (𝑅𝑐)

fSLL is a piecewise approximation (characterizer) to the actual SLL. Ten points are provided for configuration and linear interpolation is used to approximate SLL
between the entered points.
The reduced flow is calculated as:
ℎ𝑒𝑓𝑓
𝑞𝑐𝑜𝑟𝑟 = √ where heff is the effective differential pressure across an equivalent FMD at compressor suction.
𝑃1
Considering a generic compressor application heff is calculated as:

 FMD
h eff  h FMD
1

Where “FMD” indicates the FMD actual location (may not necessarily coincide with compressor suction)

1.4. OPERATING POINT

The operating point is defined as the percentage of current reduced flow (qcorr), taking as 100% the corresponding flow on the SLL (qSLL):
𝑞𝑐𝑜𝑟𝑟
𝑂𝑃[%] = × 100
𝑞𝑆𝐿𝐿
The surge control line margin is defined as an offset from the SLL in terms of % of flow at surge. Therefore from the definition of the OP, used in the controller,
the SLL is defined by OPSLL [%]= 100 and and the SCL by OPSCL [%] = 100+(SCL margin).

 2.1. ANTISURGE CONTROLLER MAIN FEATURES:
➢ SCL Control
Main PI regulator, with dead band, variable gain and dead-time compensation, acting on the AS valve reference (Max selection with all other controllers) in order
to maintain the measure (OP) at the set (SCL).

➢ OP Rate Control
If the OP measure decreases fast, Rate control overcome the output command, reducing the OP decreasing rate; rate SP is lower while OP moves toward the
SCL.

➢ Booster Correction
When the measure is lower of the Booster Correction Line (typ. SCL - 5% in terms of flow) the antisurge controller output increase by consecutive steps, in fixed
time gaps, until the measure goes back to a value higher than Booster Correction Line.

➢ Safety Protection
When the measure is lower of the Safety Protection Line (typ. SLL + 1% in terms of flow) the antisurge controller output decreases following quick opening ramp
until the measure goes back to the right of the Safety Correction Line .

➢ Closure Rate limiter

It’s used to avoid instability phenomenon on antisurge control introducing an output limit of variation. Quick rate is used in opening, slow rate in closing.

➢ Manual operation function

Allows to manually adjust the AS valve reference from HMI, keeping other regulators able to open further if needed.

➢ Controller Enabling/Disabling
When the controller is disabled the antisurge valve is forced to open position. Controller is generally enabled when min. control speed is reached.

➢ Purge function
Allows the complete closing of the antisurge valve when the compressor is stopped.
