We Interrupt This Blog Post to Bring You This Important Blog Post
Bruce Greenwald
I've been back in Texas since October, getting acclimated to all things uniquely Texan, like great BBQ and killer margaritas. I’m also working on my Texas-speak (y’all). While I’m back in the live music capital of the world, I’m still not sure I’m ready to go out two-stepping, but I knew it was time to start blogging again. I was in the middle of putting together by my first blog post in over 4 months (the topic was…

Monitoring Turbine and Compressor Operation
Terry Blevins
In January I posted a series of four (4) blogs that addressed the implement of an on-line compressor efficiency calculation. The example for this series was a compressor for a refrigeration system that used R134a refrigerant. If you have a similar compressor application in your plant then the information provided in these blogs may act … Continue reading » Read the full text.

Centrifugal Compressor Efficiency – Part 4
Terry Blevins
Part 1 of the centrifugal compressor efficiency series addressed the measurements and parameters that must be calculated to determine compressor efficiency. In Part 2-3 of this series we examined one way of calculating the enthalpy and entropy of the gas stream at the compressor suction and discharge and isentropic enthalpy for the refrigerant R134a. Once … Continue reading » Read the full text.

Compressor Surge and Stall Detection and Prevention
Gregory K McMillan
A compressor going into stall is like jumping off a cliff with a bungee cord. If the bungee cord has no losses to dampen the oscillation, we have something akin to surge. A 0.5% drop in efficiency can occur for each surge cycle. Several surge cycles can occur due to delays and lags in high … Continue reading » Read the full text.

Centrifugal Compressor Efficiency – Part 3
Terry Blevins
Part 1 of the centrifugal compressor efficiency series addressed the measurements and parameters that are used to calculate compressor efficiency. In Part 2 of this series we examine how these measurements are used to calculate the enthalpy of the gas stream at the compressor suction and discharged for the refrigerant R134a. This calculation utilized bilinear … Continue reading » Read the full text.

Centrifugal Compressor Efficiency – Part 2
Terry Blevins
As addressed in Part 1 of the centrifugal compressor efficiency series, the enthalpy of the gas stream at the compressor suction and discharge must be known to determine the compressor efficiency. Also, the isentropic enthalpy must be determined based on the gas stream entropy at the compressor suction and the compressor discharge pressure. These properties … Continue reading » Read the full text.
