Title: Improvements in compressor control
Inventor: POWELL GEOFFREY GEORGE
IPC: F04D27/02
Filed: 2008-08-07
Granted: 2012-12-20
Abstract: The invention relates to improvements in compressors and, in particular, to an improvement in a method of controlling variable speed dynamic compressors to avoid 'motor overload as a result of choking.1 The invention therefore comprises a method of controlling a compressor to provide compressed gas at a target delivery pressure (Pt) and prevent excessive motor power consumption, the compressor being driven by a variable speed motor which has motor windings, wherein the gas inlet temperature (Tin), gas output delivery pressure (Pd), motor speed (Vm) and the motor winding temperature (Tmw) are continuously measured during operation of the compressor. The gas inlet temperature (Tin) is used to determine a predetermined maximum motor winding temperature (Tmwmax) limit. The maximum motor winding temperature (Tmwmax) is used (to set a maximum motor speed (Vmmax) limit. The maximum motor speed (Vmmax), target (Pt) and gas output delivery (Pd) pressures are used to control the actual motor speed (Vm) below the maximum motor speed limit (Vmmax).
