A control device includes: a variation command unit that changes a command value, which is a command value sent to a system including a compressor, affecting an operating state of the compressor; a proportional coefficient calculation unit that calculates a proportional coefficient of a variation in a parameter, which indicates a state of the compressor or an electric motor that drives the compressor when the system is operated based on the command value, with respect to the command value; and a control unit that performs control for avoiding or suppressing surging in the compressor, based on a value of the proportional coefficient.

Provided is a compressor control device configured to control a flow rate of a compressor having a plurality of impellers connected to an outlet port-side flow path in parallel and a flow rate regulation unit configured to regulate a flow rate of each of the impellers, the compressor control device including a pressure detection unit configured to detect a pressure of the outlet port-side flow path, a flow rate detection unit configured to detect the flow rate of each of the impellers, and a control unit configured to output a flow rate regulation command of each of the impellers to the flow rate regulation unit and control the flow rate regulation unit based on the detection result of the pressure detection unit.

A valve includes a housing with a mounting portion, a venting portion, and a cap portion. The valve also includes a piston in the housing with a shaft, a disc, and a flange, the piston being moveable between a closed position and an open position. The valve also includes a vessel that is in contact with the cap portion and the flange wherein fluid pressure contained in the vessel biases the piston into one of the opened position and the closed position.

A system for supplying compressed air to a pneumatic network includes a load compressor, an air supply and a power shaft driving the load compressor. The system also includes in an air outlet of such load compressor, a connecting channel connected, on the one side, with a channel connected with the pneumatic network and, on the other side, with an air discharge conduct towards an exhaust nozzle. Air flow rate bleed valves are controlled by a processing unit via servo-loops as a function of the pressure sensors and the speed sensor.

In general, techniques are described in which packet replicators of a network device cooperate to generate a distributed hierarchical forwarding structure that the packet replicators then use to replicate and forward multicast packets to multiple output interfaces. For example, packet forwarding engines (PFEs) of a router each receive a new list of interfaces for a multicast packet stream. The PFEs individually construct a hierarchical forwarding structure based on the interface list. The hierarchical forwarding structure specifies interrelationships among the PFEs, which occupy nodes within the hierarchy. Each child PFE determines from the hierarchical forwarding structure the identity of a parent PFE and issues a token, constituting forwarding state for the distributed hierarchical forwarding structure, to the parent PFE. The parent PFE uses the token to identify packets of the multicast traffic to the child PFE during replication and forwarding of multicast packets proceeding according to the hierarchical forwarding structure.

A control device configured to control an inflow adjusting unit that quantitatively adjusts an inflow of a gas into a compressor and to control a valve provided in a second flow passage branching from a first flow passage from the compressor to a compressed gas supply destination includes: a command calculating unit that is configured to calculate a command value for at least any one of the inflow adjusting unit and the valve; and a correction value calculating unit that is configured to calculate a correction value with respect to a command value for at least any one of the inflow adjusting unit and the valve.

Methods are provided for identifying degradation in components of a compressor recirculation valve (CRV). One method may include inferring degradation of the CRV based on adaptation of a compressor surge line outside an expected range.

A method of operating a gas turbine engine compressor. The method includes: determining an operating point of the compressor, and modulating mass flow of environmental control system input air to maintain the operating point of the gas turbine engine compressor within predetermined limits.

An object is to provide an engine system including an intake bypass device whereby it is possible to expand the operation range of a compressor without causing the output of a turbine to become insufficient. An engine system includes an intake bypass device including a bypass channel connecting a downstream side of a compressor of a turbocharger in an intake channel and an upstream side of a turbine of the turbocharger in an exhaust channel, a bypass valve disposed in the bypass channel and configured to control a flow of compressed intake air in the bypass channel, and a heating unit for heating the compressed intake air flowing through the bypass channel.

A turbo blower operable in a surge area and, more particularly, a turbo blower operable in a surge area is provided. The turbo blower increases consistency of performance thereof and efficiency by preventing suspension thereof due to a temporarily generated surge by operating even in a surge area for a predetermined time in addition to a normal area in which the turbo blower normally operates.
