Methods for, and the principles of antisurge control for multistage centrifugal compressors will be discussed without going into the mathematical details of the theories. Application of these principles is illustrated with an example for a three-stage centrifugal compressor with side suction lines. These principles are not normally discussed in the literature, so this article should be useful to beginners in this field and also serve as a review for more experienced engineers.
