ABSTRACT:
A compressor is disclosed having a characteristic modifier, such as air injection, adapted to modify an operating characteristic of the compressor in order to reduce the bandwidth and rate limit requirements of the compressor. The compressor includes an actuator, such as a bleed valve, whose bandwidth and rate limit parameters meet the corresponding reduced requirements of the compressor. The actuator is adapted to stabilize the compressor with respect to a likely condition in the compressor which would tend to make the compressor operate in a less stable manner. This makes it possible to stabilize the compressor using a more readily available actuator having lower bandwidth and rate limit parameters.
