Control and Operation of Centrifugal Gas Compressor Course
Introduction:
This course provides a practical introduction to centrifugal gas compressors and how they operate in process plants using dynamic simulation models.
Course Objectives:
- a practical introduction to centrifugal gas compressors
- about control and operation parameters in detail through dynamic simulators
- a basic overview of the main principles of compressor design and; of how easy, or difficult, it is to slip into abnormal operating conditions
- an introduction to the use of dynamic simulation and the effect on a compressor of changes in pressures, temperatures and compositions
Who Should Attend?
- Engineers with little previous knowledge of compressors and who are involved in the design, control, operation or commissioning of process plants.
- chemical, mechanical, instrumentation and process engineers
- process plant operation and supervisory staff
- design engineers wanting to learn about the operation and control of compressors as part of a process plant
- engineers interested in using dynamic simulation model to learn more about the control and operation of compressors
