Knocking in centrifugal compressors?

Knocking in centrifugal compressors refers to the phenomenon where pressure oscillations or vibrations occur, often due to irregular flow patterns or surge conditions. This can lead to performance degradation, increased wear, and potential damage to the compressor and associated system components. Proper design, operation within specified limits, and effective control strategies are essential to mitigate knocking and ensure reliable compressor performance. Monitoring parameters like pressure, temperature, and flow can help detect and prevent knocking incidents.


Why knocking problem is less in diesel engine?

The knocking problem is less prevalent in diesel engines primarily due to their higher compression ratios and the nature of diesel fuel. Diesel engines operate on the principle of compression ignition, where fuel ignites from the heat generated by high compression, rather than from a spark. This results in a more controlled combustion process, reducing the likelihood of pre-ignition or knocking. Additionally, diesel fuel has a higher cetane number, which contributes to smoother combustion and further minimizes knocking tendencies.
