COURSE OVERVIEW
Centrifugal Compressors play an essential role in many petrochemical and industrial plants. Centrifugal compressors commonly run at very high speeds and are exposed to high temperatures. The compressor operation is confined between the Surge and Stonewall limits. The compressor performance also is affected by the variation in operating conditions. Elevated temperature and large centrifugal stresses make the gas turbine operate under critical conditions and require complicated monitoring and protection systems.
Accurate instrumentation, monitoring, troubleshooting and maintenance programs are essential for maintaining and increasing the available time of the machines. Understanding and learning Centrifugal compressors more deeply help smooth and free trouble operation. This Centrifugal Compressor training course on Centrifugal Compressor will address the design, performance, operation limits, control system and troubleshooting techniques of centrifugal compressors and the parameters affecting the above.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Attendance in the Centrifugal Compressor training course will enable participants to:
- Familiarise different compressor designs
- Learn how different design parameter affects the performance and operation of the machine
- Familiarise the different types of gas compressors and their application
- Deepen the understanding of the limits of the compressor operation
- Read and calculate the performance curves of the compressor
- Familiarise with the control and protection systems of centrifugal compressor systems
- Familiarise the start and shut down of the compressor properly
- Recognize the essential of Compressors
- Learn the latest techniques to compressor condition monitoring
- Acquire proactive techniques like alignment, balancing, vibration and oil analysis
- Pick up methods of troubleshooting and maintaining
- Highlight the importance of the maintenance planning
TARGET AUDIENCE
