Why does a compressor need flow regulation? Is it for minimum flow protection?

The centrifugal pump’s outlet is equipped with minimum flow protection; is flow regulation under compression also subject to a minimum flow limit? What harm can occur if the flow drops below this minimum level?

The minimum flow rate for a compressor is the flow rate corresponding to its surge line; if the flow rate is lower than this surge flow rate, the compressor essentially becomes unusable, which constitutes a serious accident in such systems

Reply to 2# FLYTOINTER: Then what is the role of flow rate regulation in a positive-displacement compressor that does not experience surge?
