Course Objective
Upon completion of this course, Participants will have gained a thorough understanding of the various centrifugal compressor configurations available to virtually every industrial user. Items discussed include mechanical design features, sizing and application criteria, maintainability, reliability, vulnerability and troubleshooting issues. Participants will learn simple techniques and short-cut methods of machinery selection, which can take the place of tedious hand calculations and will serve as rapid means to determine sensitivity or influence of parameter changes on equipment performance. Participants will be able to determine the most appropriate and efficient matching of compressor to driver.
Who Should Attend?
This application and component course is intended to be of direct use by persons in staff (Senior Technicians, Operators, Supervisors, Superintendents) and corporate engineering, plant planning and design, systems design, equipment selection and evaluation, and equipment maintenance areas.
Course Description
Centrifugal Compressors of several types, which have widely varying configurations and applications, are used extensively in the process industries. These compressors represent a significant part of the capital and operating costs of most plants, so that optimizing their selection is of major economic importance.
The course is devoted to design features, efficiencies, operating characteristics, reliability and maintenance implications of centrifugal compressors.
This course will cover the operating principles of centrifugal compressors, specifications, their design, thermodynamics, effects of efficiency on operating costs, energy usage, effect on plant costs, special materials of construction, selection, troubleshooting and maintenance.
The course will also cover plant run-length extension surveys, organizing for successful turnarounds and ongoing reliability improvement, and preventive vs. predictive maintenance strategy decisions.
The course will provide the Participant with a basic, as well as advanced, centrifugal compressor technology inventory required to successfully select, apply, troubleshoot and maintain compression equipment.
