Venue: Ibis Hotel Yogyakarta

Velvet Consulting is proud to announce an accelerated course specializing in the performance of centrifugal compressors.
The course will cover the aerodynamic and thermodynamic concepts used in the process of staging selection and performance prediction, and the criteria for restaging when operating conditions change. It explores the different types of aerodynamic testing, as well as the performance analysis and investigation of test results discrepancies.
This course will be useful to experienced engineers and those who are just beginning to specialize in turbomachinery. It is geared to professionals responsible for defining the operating conditions and the specifications used in selecting compressors for oil and gas applications, and for operating and/ or testing centrifugal compressors.
