As the title suggests: Since I don’t have much knowledge about compressors, I’m reaching out for help from everyone: lol. This post was last edited by alex_zxorc on 2008-1-9 at 17:25.]
Literally, it means “operating under reduced load”
In the terminology used in Chinese global chemical engineering, \"turndown\" is translated as: reduced load operation. Reducing the load on the compressor is also a common practice. So the answer from wwyyhbmt should be correct.
Well, I understand. Thank you all.
Expert, thanks for the advice. The term “turndown” has a broad meaning and is hard to define precisely; it generally refers to the lower operating limit. Where can I find the common terms used in engineering for China Global Chemical Engineering, as mentioned on floor 4? Thank you!
TURN DOWN appears in the API data table to indicate variable efficiency!
