  2. Compressor characteristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_characteristic

    Due to flow reversal, pressure in the pipe falls and the compressor regains its normal stable operation (let at point B) delivering the gas at higher flow rate (˙). But the control valve still corresponds to the flow rate ˙. Due to this compressor's operating conditions will again return to D through points C and S.

  3. Surge in compressors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surge_in_compressors

    The slope of a constant speed line near surge line is usually zero or even positive, which implies that the compressor cannot provide a much higher pressure as lowering the mass flow rate. Thus, the adverse pressure gradient could not be suppressed by the compressor and the system would rapidly involve an overshoot of adverse pressure gradient ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choked_flow

    The above equations calculate the steady state mass flow rate for the pressure and temperature existing in the upstream pressure source. If the gas is being released from a closed high-pressure vessel, the above steady state equations may be used to approximate the initial mass flow rate. Subsequently, the mass flow rate decreases during the ...

    Unfortunately this can lead to a poor IP compressor surge margin at part flow. IPC working line, with blow-off valve closed throughout throttle range. Surge margin can be improved by adding variable stators to the IP compressor and/or adding a blow-off valve between the IP and HP compressors. The former makes the IP compressor surge line ...

  6. Compressor stall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_stall

    Axi-symmetric stall, more commonly known as compressor surge; or pressure surge, is a complete breakdown in compression resulting in a reversal of flow and the violent expulsion of previously compressed air out through the engine intake, due to the compressor's inability to continue working against the already-compressed air behind it. The ...

  7. Axial compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_compressor

    On decreasing the flow-rate at same rpm along the characteristic curve by partial closing of the valve, the pressure in the pipe increases which will be taken care by increase in input pressure at the compressor. Further increase in pressure till point P (surge point), compressor pressure will increase.

  8. Water hammer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_hammer

    Water towers (used in many drinking water systems) or surge tanks help maintain steady flow rates and trap large pressure fluctuations. Air vessels such as expansion tanks and some types of hydraulic accumulators work in much the same way as water towers, but are pressurized. They typically have an air cushion above the fluid level in the ...

  9. Axial fan design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_fan_design

    As the flow rate increases from zero the efficiency increases to a particular point reaches maximum value and then decreases. The power output of the fans increases with almost constant positive slope. The pressure fluctuations are observed at low discharges and at flow rates(as indicated by the point "S" ) the pressure deceases.
