valve.

Procedure
This Following Simulation is just a case how
problems relating to surging at the
designed phase is formulated to see
possible scenarios at which Compressor
may surge and Solve an Operational
Surging Problem. For analysis built in Steady
State Simulation for a Compressor K-100 is
taken and exported to dynamics with certain
modification. The file can be located in
Introduction

Summary
i

Compressor are highly specific, so is the Surge Problem. The


Process Industries have online Surge Analyzer Software which
monitors Compressor Dynamics connected with DCS. The System
respond if Operating Point moves towards surge Limit.
