Centrifugal Compressor Masterclass 2011

Compressors perform a major role in many types of applications. This course is a thorough description of the technology of centrifugal compressors and their design, performance and operation and maintenance. In addtiton to the design and operational aspects, the important role of critical systems such as control and monitoring, anti-surge, and lubrication and applicable drivers will be covered. A number of case studies will be presented and supplementary resources such as conference papers will be provided.
