ABSTRACT:
An adjustable surge and capacity control system for matching a capacity control system to an inverter-driven centrifugal compressor based liquid chiller having unknown surge characteristics. The necessary adaptation of the capacity control circuit to a particular chiller is attained by the provision of two potentiometers which are adjustable to develop a functional which avoids surge and operates the system in an efficient manner at all feasible operating point loads and heads. The use of a circuit employing a pair of potentiometers permits the formation of the appropriate functional with two degrees of shaping flexibility.
