Abstract:
Methods and systems are provided to adaptively control a hydraulic fluid supply to supply a driving fluid for applying a driving force on a piston in a gas compressor, the driving force being cyclically reversed between a first direction and a second direction to cause the piston to reciprocate in strokes. During a first stroke of the piston, a speed of the piston, a temperature of the driving fluid, and a load pressure applied to the piston is monitored. Reversal of the driving force after the first stroke is controlled based on the speed, load pressure, and temperature.

Claim (Index 1):
A control system for adaptively controlling a hydraulic fluid supply to supply a driving fluid for applying a driving force on a piston in a gas compressor, the driving force being cyclically reversed between a first direction and a second direction to cause the piston to reciprocate in strokes, the system comprising:\n first and second proximity sensors positioned and configured to respectively generate a first signal indicative of a first time (T 1 ) when a first part of the piston is in proximity of the first proximity sensor, and a second signal indicative of a second time (T 2 ) when a second part of the piston is in a proximity of the second proximity sensor, whereby a speed of the piston during a first stroke of the piston is calculable based on T 1 , T 2  and a distance between the first and second proximity sensors; one or more pressure sensors positioned and configured to generate a signal indicative of a load pressure applied on the piston; a temperature sensor positioned and configured to generate a signal indicative of a temperature of the driving fluid; and a controller configured to receive signals from said sensors and for controlling the hydraulic fluid supply to control reversal of the driving force based on the speed of the piston, the temperature of the driving fluid, and the load pressure applied to the piston during the first stroke.
