RE: CENTRIFUGAL COMPRESSOR
In either case, you need to ensure you remain within the compressor's allowable operating envelope for flow, head, pressures, etc.
RE: CENTRIFUGAL COMPRESSOR
In case you throttle the compressor discharge, beware of going below the recommended min flow, a safety relief valve bypassing back to the supply should be installed to avoid damage to the compressor...and in any case recirculation cannot be permanent due to overheating.
