Surge Control Functions (Library SGB400) 2
Surge Control Functions (Library SGB400)

HC_1_02: Flow Calculation # 1 - function
Purpose
This module calculates the compressor operating point when the flow orifice is located in the
compressor suction.
Description
This function uses the analog inputs for flow; suction and discharge pressure, and calculates the
compressor operating point on the compressor map. This calculated operating point is the basis
for the control action used in the TS3000.
The following equation is used if the flow orifice is located in the compressor suction. Since the
pressure of the flowing suction is the same as the pressure of the flowing orifice and the base
pressure of the compressor and orifice is the same, the equation simplifies to:
 Psb * Psb 
rHc = H_pct ⋅  
 Pfob * (Ps + Ps_abs_cor) 
Notes: Psb must be entered in absolute units. Ps may be either absolute or gage. Ps_abs_cor is
used to convert gage pressures to absolute.
The function parameters are as follows:
VAR Parameter Type Description

INPUT H_pct REAL Differential Pressure across the orifice
in %
Pfob REAL Pressure, absolute orifice base (design
pressure from data sheet.)
Ps REAL Pressure, measured at the compressor
suction
Ps_abs_cor REAL Correction of pressure from gage to

pressure from data sheet)

HC_2_02: Flow Calculation # 2 - Function

Purpose
This module calculates the compressor operating point when the flow orifice is not located in
the compressor suction.
Description
This function uses the analog inputs for flow; suction and discharge pressure, suction and
discharge temperatures, and calculates the compressor operating point on the compressor map.
This calculated operating point is the basis for the control action used in the TS3000.
The following equation is used if the flow orifice is not located in the compressor suction. For
example, the orifice could be located in the compressor discharge or upstream of a suction-
throttling valve.

Notes: All pressure inputs must be in the same units. All base pressure inputs must be absolute.
Measured pressures may either be absolute or gage. Pf_abs_cor and Ps_abs_cor are used
to convert gage pressures to absolute. Temperatures, both measured and base, have units
of either Fahrenheit or Celsius. T_abs_cor is either 460 or 273.

The function parameters are as follows:

INPUT H_pct REAL Differential Pressure across the orifice in %.
Pfo REAL Pressure measured at the flowing orifice
Pfob REAL Pressure, orifice base in absolute units (data sheet)
Pf_abs_cor REAL Correction of orifice pressure to absolute units

HC_3_02: FLOW CALCULATION # 3 - FUNCTION

Purpose
This module calculates the compressor operating point when the flow orifice is located in the
compressor discharge, utilizing a thermodynamic property of compressors.
Description
Under normal circumstances a minimum of 5 analog inputs would be required to solve the
Equation 1. However by utilizing a thermodynamic property of compressors, the relationship
between pressure and temperature can be employed to reduce the number of field measurements
needed.
Since this equation utilizes the temperature and pressure ratio relationship it can ONLY be
employed with discharge flow measurement if there are no coolers between the compressor
discharge and the flow measurement.

HC_4_02: FLOW CALCULATION # 4 - FUNCTION

Purpose
This module calculates the compressor operating point when the compensated mass flow is
available.
Description
This function uses the analog inputs for mass flow; suction pressure, suction temperature, and
calculates the compressor operating point on the compressor map. This calculated operating
point is the basis for the control action used in the TS3000.
The formula is:

 MFLW _ max (Ps + Ps _ abs _ cor )   Tsb + T _ abs _ cor 
Measured pressures may either be absolute or gage. Ps_abs_cor is used to convert gage
pressures to absolute. Temperatures, both measured and base, have units of either
Fahrenheit or Celsius. T_abs_cor is either 460 or 273.
The parameters used by this function are as follows:
Inputs Parameter Type Description

INPUT MFLOW REAL Mass Flow.
MFLOW_max REAL Maximum Mass Flow
Ts REAL Temperature, measured at the flowing suction
Tsb REAL Temperature, compressor base (data sheet)
T_abs_cor REAL Correction of temperature to absolute units

PRAT02:PRESSURE RATIO CALCULATION - FUNCTION

Purpose
This function performs the pressure ratio calculation which is used in surge control.
Description
The pressure ratio is the ratio of the absolute discharge pressure to the absolute suction pressure.
Discharge pressure and suction pressure must be in the same engineering units, psi, kPa, etc.
However they can be either gage or absolute, since the module will change gage measurements to
absolute.
The equation is:

Pd + Pd _ abs _ cor
PRAT =
Ps + Ps _ abs _ cor
Notes: All pressure inputs must be in the same engineering units. Measured pressures may either
be absolute or gage. Pd_abs_cor and Ps_abs_cor are used to convert gage pressures to
absolute.
The input parameters for this function are as follows:

INPUT Pd REAL Pressure, measured at compressor discharge
Pd_abs_cor REAL Correction of discharge pressure to absolute units

OpPoint02: OPERATING POINT - FUNCTION BLOCK

Purpose
This module calculates the corrected flow element differential head (hc), pressure ratio (Pd/Ps),
fallback hc and compensated flow.
Description
This module calculates the x and y coordinates of the surge graph operating point. The x-
coordinate, hc, is the corrected differential head produced by the flow element. The y-coordinate,
Pd/Ps, is the ratio of discharge pressure to suction pressure. In addition, this module calculates
compensated flow and the fallback value of hc. It can utilize the flow measurement in either the
suction or discharge of the compressor. Any pressure units can be used, provided the suction and
discharge pressure transmitters use the same units. The temperature units can be in Fahrenheit,
Celsius, or absolute units.
This module always makes the fallback value of hc available for use by the surge control
program. It is denoted (rHc)FB in the following equation. The program may choose to use this
calculation if a failure is reported on a pressure or temperature transmitter and the associated
measurement cannot be trusted.

 FLOW 
(rHc) FB =  * 100.0

The integer (HXTYPE) determines the calculation mode. A value of 1 means the flow orifice is
in the compressor suction. A value of 2 means the orifice is in the compressor discharge and
there is temperature compensation. A value of 3 means the flow orifice is located in the
discharge and temperature measurements are not available.

RECAL: RECALIBRATE - FUNCTION BLOCK

Purpose
This function recalibrates the Operator Safety Margin if a surge has occurred.
Description
The TS3000 has a Recalibration feature that produces a bias (RECAL_AMT) which is added to
the Operator Safety Margin if a surge has occurred.
A surge event is assumed to have occurred if the Margin decreases less than -1%. Recalibration
is typically only enabled if the Surge Controller is enabled and either the Surge Controller is in
Auto or is not in Full Manual. Each time a surge occurs the Recalibration Bias is incremented by
kRCINC, but there is a maximum amount of Recalibrations that are allowed (kRCMAX).
The Recalibration Amount and Counter can be reset to 0 by setting the REC_RESET flag to 1.
The function resets the flag back to 0 after 3 seconds.
The Surge Counter is incremented anytime the margin decreases less than -1%. The REC_RESET
flag does not reset the Surge Counter.
The parameters for this function block are as follows:

INPUT MARGIN REAL Actual Margin
REC_ENB BOOL Recalibration Enabled
kRCINC REAL Recalibration Increment
kRCMAX REAL Maximum Recalibrations
deltaT REAL Scan Cycle Time, Seconds
OUTPUT fINSUR BOOL Compressor In Surge Flag
IN/OUT RECAL_AMT REAL Recalibration Bias
SURGE_COUNT REAL Surge Counter
RECAL_COUNT REAL Recalibration Counter
REC_RESET BOOL Recalibration Reset

SAFETY_MAR: TOTAL SAFETY MARGIN - FUNCTION
Purpose
This function calculates the operator safety margin.
Description
The operator-entered margin can be a combination of constant and proportional terms. The
following graphs illustrate the two different types of margin. A constant margin is usually
sufficient. However, some compressors exhibit a narrow range of operation between surge and
choke flow at either low speeds or low opening positions on the guide vanes. In this case it is
desirable to have a small constant margin and a proportional margin that increases as the flow is
increased. The inputs to this function are as follows:
The equation for the Operator Safety Margin is:
(rSULIN • PROP _ MAR )

rSAFETY _ OP = CONST_MAR +

INPUT CONST_MAR REAL Constant safety margin (hc)
PROP_MAR REAL Proportional safety margin (%)
rSULIN REAL Surge Point

TOTAL SAFETY MARGIN

The Total Safety Margin (rTOT_SAFETY) is the sum of the Operator Margin and the
Recalibration Margin.

SP_HOVER: SETPOINT HOVER - FUNCTION
Purpose
This function generates the setpoint hover feature of the surge control.
Description
Setpoint Hover forces the setpoint of the Surge PID to track the Operating Margin of the
Compressor. When the Operating Point moves away from the Control Line with increasing flow
or changing pressure ratio, the Setpoint Hover follows. Movement to the right of the Surge Curve
is instantaneous; movement back towards the Surge Line is determined by the Hover Increment.
This allows the controller to track the Operating Point instantly while allowing a configurable rate
at which the compressor can approach the surge line.
Hover Margin (kHOVER)

This is the distance that the Setpoint Hover will track the Operating Margin as it increases above
the Total Safety Margin.
Hover Increment (kHOV_INC)

Hover Increment is the speed at which the Setpoint Hover Line can move toward the Surge Line.
This sets the rate at which the compressor is allowed to move toward the Surge Line.

deltaT REAL Scan cycle time, seconds
FEEDBACK REAL Feedback from last SP_HOVER

PID_SRG02: SURGE PID - FUNCTION BLOCK

Purpose
This function block is the surge PID controller.
Description
The setpoint for the Surge PID is set from the Setpoint Hover function. The measurement is the
actual operating margin. The controller is configured for reverse action.
The tuning constants consist of gain and reset. With a gain constant of 2 and a 1% increase in
measurement, the output will decrease by 2%. The reset is in units of repeats /minute. If the reset
constant is increased, the integral response is quicker. The gain constant does not influence the
integral action.
The following is the equation for Proportional and Integral Action:
Re set
Output = K ⋅ (Error − Error1) + ⋅ Error ⋅ rDT

The derivative is usually set to 0 and scan time in seconds is connected to deltaT.

The inputs and outputs for the function are as follows:

INPUT SP REAL Set Point
PV REAL Process variable
GAIN REAL Controller Gain
RESET REAL RESET - Repeats / Min
DER REAL Derivative in Seconds
deltaT REAL Scan cycle time, seconds
DIR_ACTION BOOL Controller Action.
OUTPUT CO BOOL 1131 Requirement

ADPTV_TN1: ADAPTIVE TUNING - FUNCTION

Purpose
Tuning is stepped to 3 different values based on PID controller error.
Description
This is virtually the same as the following function, Adptv_Tun, except that the transition
between tuning cannot be ramped in this function; it must be stepped. When the Measurement is
less than Setpoint - BK_PT1, then output is set to TUNE_1.
When the Measurement is between Setpoint - BK_PT1 and SP + BK_PT2 then output is set to
Normal.
When the Measurement is greater than Setpoint + BK_PT2 then output is TUNE_2.

BK_PT2 REAL High Measurement Breakpoint
TUNE_2 REAL Tuning used when Measurement is High

ADPTV_TUN03: ADAPTIVE TUNING - FUNCTION

Purpose
This function provides adaptive tuning to the PID function block.
Description
Normal tuning is used when the margin is running within the deadband of the setpoint. If the
margin decreases less than the setpoint minus BRKPT1, the tuning is linearly changed by the
amount of RISE1. If the margin increases above the setpoint plus BRKPT2, the tuning is linearly
changed by the amount of RISE2. If Limitx > NORMAL, the tuning increases linearly above the
Normal tuning towards the limit. If Limitx < NORMAL, the tuning decreases linearly below the
Normal tuning towards the limit.
The adaptive tuning constants are limited with the variables Limit1 and Limit2. Limit1 applies to
the lower end (Left) of the curve while Limit2 applies to the upper end (Right) of the curve. The
lower end is used when the margin is significantly lower than the setpoint; the upper end is used
when the margin is significantly higher than the setpoint. If a RISE variable is zero, the tuning
will step from NORMAL to the corresponding Limit.
The RISE variable is used to compute the tuning variable from the error between the setpoint and
measurement. The RISE variables begin to apply at the breakpoints. The RISE is a ratio of
tuning change to error change. For example, if the setpoint moves two percent from a breakpoint,
then the tuning parameter will be adjusted by 2 times the RISE variable. In this example, if the
RISE were 0.5, the tuning parameter would change by 1.0. If the RISE variables are too high,
then the surge control may become unstable when the error is large.

SRG_OVRD02: SURGE OVERRIDE - FUNCTION
Purpose
This function protects the compressor from surge before the PID begins to act.
Description
The TS3000 has a proportional-only function, which forces the surge valve to open, independent
of normal proportional/integral controller action. This function begins to open the valve at a
specified margin to the left of the control line, and opens the valve as the operating point reaches
the surge line. This function protects the compressor, even if the TS3000 Surge PID Controller is
tuned for slow response.
If a safety margin of less than 2% is entered then the surge line is adjusted (for this function only)
to maintain a 2% margin. This allows for testing the surge line with a negative safety margin and
still maintaining surge override protection.

the Surge Override Line towards the Surge Line the output of this function increases from 0% to
the Surge Override Maximum.

Surge Override Maximum defines the maximum opening that the Surge Override Function can
open the surge valve, expressed as a number from 0 to 100%.

VALVE_SEL05: VALVE SELECT – FUNCTION BLOCK
Purpose
This function block selects the signal to be passed to the valve.
Description
When the surge controller is enabled there are three modes of operation: Auto, Full Authority
Manual and Partial Authority Manual. Auto is selected by setting Auto to 1. Manual is selected
by setting Auto to 0, if Full_Auth is 1 then operation is in Full Authority Manual, if Full_Auth is
0 then operation is in Partial Authority Manual.
The surge controller is disabled when SRG_ENB is set to 0. When disabled, the output to the
valve (VLV_DMD) is set to 100%. When the surge controller is first enabled, a Startup Ramp is
initiated which ramps the valve to slowly fade in the compressor to the process. The ramp rate is
adjusted by STRT_RMP (%/Sec) and is in effect in Auto and Partial Authority Manual.
Adjustable valve slew rates are provided. SLEW_OPEN is the maximum opening ramp rate
(%/Sec). SLEW_CLSD is the maximum closing ramp rate (%/Sec). SLEW_DB is the amount
the valve is allowed to move in either direction before the slew rates go into affect.
In Auto operation, the output to the valve (VLV_DMD) is set within the slew rate limits to the
highest of the following inputs: SRG_PID, SRG_OVRD and PROC_OVRD. The Valve demand
is limited from exceeding MAX_OUT. PROC_OVRD can be set from either a process override
controller or even a surge controller from another compressor stage. SRG_PID and
PROC_OVRD are limited from going less than 3% below VALVE_FB. MAN_DMD is set to
track VALVE_FB.
In Full Authority Manual, the output to the valve (VLV_DMD) is set within the slew rate limits
to MAN_DMD. MAX_OUT is not used while in Full Authority. SRG_PID and PROC_OVRD
are set to track VALVE_FB. When the surge controller is disabled, MAN_DMD is initialized to
100%.
In Partial Authority Manual, the output to the valve (VLV_DMD) is set within the slew rate
limits to the highest of the following inputs: MAN_DMD, SRG_PID, SRG_OVRD,
PROC_OVRD. The Valve demand is limited from exceeding MAX_OUT. SRG_PID and
PROC_OVRD are limited from going less than 3% below VALVE_FB.
Limit flags are provided to indicate which input has control of the valve. In automatic, if the
surge output is at 0%, only the Surge PID flag will be On.
A valve derivative output is provided for the Speed Setpoint Bias Module.
If the Transmitter Failed flag is set ON, then the controller is set to full manual (gAUTO is forced
to 0, but FULL_AUTH is not changed). The MAN_DMD is ramped to FAIL_SAFE at the
STRT_RMP ramp rate. If the Manual Demand is already greater than the FAIL_SAFE position at
the time the Fail Flag is set ON, then no action is taken. Also, if the controller is already in full
manual, no action is taken if the Transmitter Failed flag is set ON.

DUMP_SOL: DUMP SOLENOID - FUNCTION

Purpose
This function generates the Dump signal to the Dump Solenoid.
Description
The Dump Solenoid output is set ON if either the Actual Margin decreases below the Dump Line
or the Surge Controller is disabled. The Dump Line is kDUMP times the Total Safety Margin.
The value for kDUMP is entered as a decimal fraction.

SPD_SRG_DECPL03: SPEED / SURGE DECOUPLE –

FUNCTION BLOCK
Purpose
This function block provides Capacity Control with Speed / Surge Decoupling.
Description
The purpose of Capacity Control is to control the flow through the compressor. This can be done
by controlling suction pressure, discharge pressure, or flow. For example if the discharge pressure
controller is enabled and the discharge pressure is higher than the setpoint then the capacity
demand will automatically be reduced. Capacity Control is achieved by adjusting the speed of the
compressors and/or the opening of the vent valve.
Traditionally Capacity Control has been accomplished simply by having a pressure controller
manipulate the speed setpoint. This has two disadvantages. The first is that on a major loss of
load, the speed setpoint is drastically reduced which drives the compressor quickly into surge.
The surge valve then flies open, which then causes the capacity controller to quickly increase
speed to find a new steady state operating point. A second disadvantage is that speed and vent
valve may hunt due to interaction between the pressure, speed and anti-surge controllers.
Capacity Control implemented with decoupling between speed and surge control can best be
described by the following sequence:
At full capacity, the controller output is 100%: the surge valve is closed and the speed controller
is at maximum governor.
As capacity is reduced, the controller output decreases which causes the speed to reduce. Once
capacity is decreased to point that the compressor is near to the surge control line, the speed is no
longer reduced, since this would eventually result in compressor surging.
As capacity is further reduced, the controller reacts by opening the surge valve to maintain
pressure. At this point, the turbine speed is maintained to keep the operating point within 1 to 3%
greater than the surge control line. Since the actual surge margin is kept greater than the safety
margin of the surge controller, the surge controller is continually trying to close the surge valve.
The capacity controller maintains complete control of the surge valve through a high signal select
to the surge controller and surge control / capacity control decoupling is achieved.
As capacity is increased, the surge valve is closed. When the vent valve is closed, the controller
then increases the speed setpoint.
If capacity is increased quickly and the vent valve becomes limited due to the closure ramp limit
in the surge controller, then the speed setpoint is immediately increased to pick up load.
If capacity is decreased quickly, the speed setpoint is decreased by the hover amount and then
ramps down. The surge valve is opened to maintain capacity. Over time the speed setpoint will
ramp down and the surge valve will close.

Dynamic Breakpoint (DYN_BKPT):

The point at which capacity control switches from controlling speed to opening the surge valve is
called the Dynamic Breakpoint. This point is dynamic because it is variant depending on the gas
properties (temperature, molecular weight and compressibility). The Dynamic Breakpoint,
represented by BP in the figures below, represents the controller output at which if the output is
decreased any further, then the speed is reduced below that required to maintain the surge control
line. If the controller output increases above BP then the turbine speed is increased as shown in
the top figure. If the controller output decreases below BP, then the recycle valve opens and
speed is maintained at the Breakpoint amount, as shown in the bottom figure.
The Dynamic Breakpoint is prevented from decreasing more than 1.5% (BKPT_HVR) less than
the controller output.
The Dynamic Breakpoint is limited from declining quickly as a result of a rapid decrease in
pressure controller output. The Breakpoint will ramp fast (RAMP_FAST) if the margin is greater
than 10% (FAST_BKPT) above the safety margin, otherwise it will ramp slowly
(RAMP_SLOW). If the discharge capacity controller output decreases below the Breakpoint, the
surge valve will open. The Breakpoint will continue to ramp down until either the margin is
within 3% (DEADBAND_MX) of the control line or until 50 % (minimum governor), or until the
capacity controller is satisfied, whichever comes first.
If the Breakpoint comes within 1% (DEADBAND_MN) of the control line, the Dynamic
Breakpoint is increased. If the Dynamic Breakpoint is between 1% and 3% greater than the
control line then no change is made to the Dynamic Breakpoint.
The Breakpoint is limited from going below 50% (minimum governor).

Gain Adjustment
An adjustment is available to balance the action of the speed setpoint and surge valve. Typically a
gain of 1 is used which represents that 1% of recycle valve change is equivalent to 1% of speed
setpoint change. A gain higher than 1 would be used in applications with large surge valves of
that have a bigger impact than changing the speed setpoint.
Surge Valve Override (SRG_VALVE):

As the capacity controller output increases from DYN_BKPT - 50 to the Breakpoint
(DYN_BKPT) the surge valve closes from 100 to 0%.
The Surge Valve Override (SRG_VALVE) is high-selected with the anti-surge controller to open
the vent valve.
If SURGE_ENB is not selected, SRG_VALVE is set equal to the SRGVLV_TRK input.
If only SURGE_ENB is selected, SRG_VALVE is set directly by the capacity controller.
Speed Setpoint Target (SPD_SP):

The speed setpoint is limited from going below the Breakpoint.
The speed setpoint is scaled to suction pressure controller output 50% to 100%
Since the Breakpoint DYN_BKPT is clamped from going below 50%, it is not possible to
calculate a negative speed setpoint.
If SPEED_ENB is not selected, SPD_SP is set equal to the SPDSP_TRK input.
If only SPEED_ENB is selected, SPD_SP is set directly by the capacity controller.

LS_BIAS02: LOADSHARE BIASING - FUNCTION BLOCK

Purpose
Provides bias to manipulate either speed or suction valve to load share parallel compressors.
Description
This function is called for each suction valve. The Capacity Demand is typically the output of
either a suction or discharge pressure controller.
When the Loadshare Enabled flag is Off, the Output is ramped to the Output Minimum Limit at
the Fade Out Ramp Rate. However if the operator has control of the Suction Valve, the Output
will track the position of the Suction Valve using the Feedback input.
When the Loadshare Enabled flag is first turned On, the Output is ramped to the Capacity
Demand at the Fade In Ramp Rate. Once the Output has reached within 0.5 % of the Capacity
Demand, the Fade In Flag will turn On and the Output to the Suction Valve will begin to
Loadshare.
When Faded In, the Output is set to the Capacity Demand plus the Loadshare Bias. The
Loadshare Bias integrates at the Loadshare Integral Rate (in minutes) in an attempt to bring the
Loadshare Differential to 0. The Bias will never ramp faster than the Maximum Rate of Change
(% / Min). The Loadshare Differential is externally calculated and is the difference of this
compressor’s Loadshare Measurement (operating distance to the surge control line) and the
average of all the compressors’ Loadshare Measurement values.
To ensure that all the suction valves are operating around the capacity demand, the Bias for all
compressors are ramped down if the Average Bias is above the Balance Deadband and the Bias
for all compressors are ramped up if the Average Bias is below the Balance Deadband. The Bias
is ramped at the Balance Rate (%/Min).
The Bias can be limited for the following reasons:
1. Maximum Output is Exceeded
2. Minimum Output is Exceeded
3. Output exceeds the Limit Deadband plus the Feedback (indication of Motor Current
Override)
4. The Bias exceeds the Maximum Bias Setting in either direction.
The Loadshare Limit Reached Flag is Set On if the Output exceeds the Limit Deadband plus the
Feedback (Motor Current Override).
If Loadshare Enable is set to Off, the Fade In flag is set to Off and the Output is ramped to the
Minimum Output. When the Output reaches within 0.5% of the Minimum Output, the Fade Out
Flag is set to On.
