Fixed-order dynamic compensation for axial flow compression systems

摘要

We develop linear fixed-order (i.e., full and reduced order) pressure rise feedback dynamic compensators for axial flow compressors with throttle valve actuation. Unlike the nonlinear static controllers proposed in the literature possessing gain at all frequencies, the proposed dynamic compensators explicitly account for compressor performance versus sensor accuracy, compressor performance versus processor throughput, and compressor performance versus disturbance rejection. Furthermore, the proposed controller is predicated on only pressure rise measurements, providing a considerable simplification in the sensing architecture over the bifurcation-based and backstepping controllers proposed in the literature.
