The series Advances in Industrial Control aims to report and encourage technology transfer
in control engineering. The rapid development of control technology impacts all areas of the …

Modeling and control for axial flow compression systems have received great attention in
recent years. The objectives are to suppress rotating stall and surge, to extend the stable …

AXIAL flow compressors suffer fluid dynamic instabilities known as surge and rotating stall.
Surge involves the entire compression system, while rotating stall is local to the compressor …

Work on rotating stall and its related disturbances have been in progress since the Second
World War. During this period, certain “hot topics” have come to the fore—mostly in response …

Aerodynamic instabilities that naturally occur in compression systems, such as surge and
rotating stall, largely reduce the life duration and performance of system components. The …

The surge and rotating stall post-instability behaviors of axial flow compressors are
investigated from a bifurcation-theoretic perspective, using a model and system data …

Compressors are used in power generation and a variety of other applications. This thesis
contains new results in the field of modeling and control of rotating stall and surge in …

Axial compression systems are widely used in many aerodynamic applications. However,
the operability of such systems is limited at low-mass flow rates by fluid dynamic instabilities …

Aeroengines operate in regimes for which both rotating stall and surge impose low flow
operability limits. Thus, active control strategies designed to enhance operability of …

▪ Abstract The compression system instabilities known as surge and rotating stall are natural
limits to the performance of all compressors and are especially troubling in gas turbine …
