Compressor Surge and Rotating Stall: Modeling and Control (Advances in Industrial Control)

Author: Jan Tommy Gravdahl and Olav Egeland Description: This book gives a comprehensive overview

of the achievements in the field of modeling and active control of instabilities in compressions systems over the last decade. Models of unstable compression systems are usually restricted to constant speed compressors. But here, two models are derived that take time varying rotational speed into account—one for
