Tri Sen Surge Control

The document summarizes surge and performance control features of TRI-SEN compressor controls. It describes features such as surge line prediction that is invariant to gas condition changes, adaptive control lines that increase margins if surge occurs, selectable operating modes, automatic surge line updates, parallel load sharing between multiple compressors, and a process demand scheduler that stabilizes processes. It also details adaptive tuning that applies more aggressive gains if the operating point moves close to the surge line.

COMPRESSOR CONTROLS

Surge and Performance control Features


Feature
Surge line prediction invariant to changes in gas conditions accurate surge line prediction regardless of changes to suction density
Adaptive control line increases minimum margin if operating point reaches surge line Surge Anticipation starts opening recycle valve if operating point drops quickly, even if well to the right of the minimum control line Selectable modes Full manual, Full Auto and Cooperative Auto Automatic Surge Line Update surge line is updated with surge points detected during operation. Parallel Load Sharing managed performance control for two or more compressor in a parallel arrangement Adaptive Tuning Applies more aggressive gain and integral when operating point moves too close to the surge line Process Demand Scheduler stabilizes process by preventing interaction of the anti-surge controller and process controller. Provides process control over the entire flow range of the compressor

Reliable Surge Line Prediction


Any changes to the molecular weight will affect the head term in the same way that it affects the flow term. So if the molecular weight drops the head will increase and the flow will also increase. The new surge point will fall on the same line.

COMPRESSOR CONTROLS
Adaptive Control Line
Configurable increase in margin if surge occurs Provides added protection in presence of a system failure Guarded reset Generates operator alarm and provides a surge count

Selectable Modes
Automatic anti-surge controller is in complete control of the recycle valve operation Manual operator is in complete control of the recycle valve (no surge protection) Cooperative Auto automatic surge protection but allows operator to increase recycle beyond amount required by anti-surge controller

Surge Anticipation
Allows normal movement of operating point Starts opening recycle valve right away if flow drops quickly Minimizes recycle after transient is complete Minimizes instabilities

COMPRESSOR CONTROLS
Automatic Surge Line Update
Automatically adds a detected surge point to the surge line and redraws line Memorizes pressure ratio and reduced flow when a surge occurs Re-shapes surge line to provide reasonable line slopes Accommodates inadequate surge testing

Parallel Load Sharing


No dedicated controller required Data transferred over high-speed peer-to-peer network Simple capacity split (weighted if required) Balancing managed by Process Demand Scheduler Automatically adapts to compressors being added or removed from sharing

Process Demand Scheduler


Allows process control over entire flow range (0 to 100%) Prevents interaction of process controller and anti-surge controller Process controller can be located in TSx or DCS with minimal handshaking

Adaptive Tuning
Allows appropriate tuning for normal operation Applies more aggressive tuning if operating point drops below minimum control line Helps drive valve closed more quickly if margin is high
