Antisurge PI Response - A proportional-integral response of the Antisurge controller to manipulate the recycle valve based on the DEViation. Derivative Response - A response of the Antisurge controller where the surge control line (SCL) moves to meet the operating point. How far the line moves is dependent on the speed of approach of the operating point (TdO*dS/dT) multiplied by the value b3. This is done so the recycle valve can open sooner for a fast disturbance. Recycle Trip Response - An open-loop response where the recycle valve is stepped open in response to crossing the recycle trip line (RTL), causing the operating point (OP) to go back to the surge control line (SCL). Safety On Response - A response where the SCL and RTL are moved to a safer location, by the amount b2. The operator should determine the cause of the Safety On response and Reset the Safety On.

AUTO MANUAL b b1 SO Bias (b2)

Automatic / Manual - The operating mode of the Antisurge controller. Note: in MANUAL the operator must manipulate the recycle valve. Width of the Safety Margin - The distance between the SCL and SLL, based on the equation b = b1 + (b2*n) + (b3*Td0*dS/dt). Initial Safety Margin - Minimum distance between SCL and SLL. Safety On Bias - Distance added to the SCL each time surge is detected.

Automatic / Manual - The operating mode of the Antisurge controller. Note: in MANUAL the operator must manipulate the recycle valve. Width of the Safety Margin - The distance between the SCL and SLL, based on the equation b = b1 + (b2*n) + (b3*Td0*dS/dt). Initial Safety Margin - Minimum distance between SCL and SLL. Safety On Bias - Distance added to the SCL each time surge is detected.

Derivative Derivative Response - A response of the Antisurge controller where the SCL moves to meet the operating point. The RTL (b3)
remains fixed.

DEV

Deviation - The distance between the SCL and the OP. A positive value indicates that the OP is to the right of the SCL. A negative value indicates that the OP is to the left of the SCL. Fallback Strategy - An alternate operational strategy to maintain the same level of surge protection when a required input fails. Limit - A response of the Antisurge controller that can override the primary PI control, based on a secondary variable (Ps, Pd, or Rc). Operating Point - The point on the compressor map that represents the current operating location of the compressor. PI Response - The closed-loop response of the Antisurge controller. Recycle Trip Line - Line on compressor map where the open-loop RT response is triggered. Recycle Trip - Distance between the RTL and the SCL. Surge Control Line - Line on compressor map where DEV has a zero value. If the OP is left of the SCL, the recycle valve opens. If the OP is right of the SCL, the recycle valve closes. Surge Limit Line - Line on compressor map representing where surge occurs. Surge occurs when the OP is left of the SLL. Safety On - Distance between the SLL and the SOL. Safety On Line - Line on compressor map where the controller recognizes surge and the Safety On response is triggered.
