  2. Compressor map - Wikipedia

    Hiereth et al. [30] shows a turbocharger compressor full-load, or maximum fuelling, curve runs up close to the surge line. A gas turbine compressor full-load line also runs close to the surge line. The industrial compressor overload is a capacity limit and requires high power levels to pass the high flow rates required. [31]

  3. Surge in compressors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surge_in_compressors

    When the compressor’s operation approaches the surge point the controller modulates either a flow control valve (FCV) in the recycle line or adjusts the speed (SC) of the compressor driver. The FCV allows cooled gas from the discharge to spill back to the suction of the compressor, thereby maintaining the forward flow of gas through the machine.

  5. Compressor characteristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_characteristic

    Surge control line is the line which works as the indicating line for the surge control mechanism so that surge can be prevented in the system and proper steps can be taken. The line can vary for different surge control systems as it is up to the system to decide the margin between operating point and the surge point. [13]

    EGR valve the top of box on top of the inlet manifold of a Saab H engine in a 1987 Saab 90. In internal combustion engines, exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) is a nitrogen oxide (NO x) emissions reduction technique used in petrol/gasoline, diesel engines and some hydrogen engines. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_circuit

    The normally closed valves will not permit flow from the inlet port of the valve to the outlet port, normally the flow will be permitted only by changing the position of the valve. In general, valves are designated as 2/2 DCV, 3/2 DCV, 5/2 DCV, 5/3 DCV etc., in which the first number indicates number of ports and second number indicates number ...

  8. Process flow diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_flow_diagram

    A process flow diagram (PFD) is a diagram commonly used in chemical and process engineering to indicate the general flow of plant processes and equipment. The PFD displays the relationship between major equipment of a plant facility and does not show minor details such as piping details and designations.

  9. Indicator diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indicator_diagram

    An indicator diagram is a chart used to measure the thermal, or cylinder, performance of reciprocating steam and internal combustion engines and compressors. [1] An indicator chart records the pressure in the cylinder versus the volume swept by the piston, throughout the two or four strokes of the piston which constitute the engine, or ...
