Anti Surge is a process witnessed only in Centrifugal
compressors as Kinetic Energy of the fluid is converted
into the Pressure energy.
Surging is not witnessed in Reciprocating Compressors, as
they are positive displacement Equipments where the
pressure increased is by volume reduction, hence providing
anti surge in reciprocating is not envisaged and not proper.
Anti Surge is witnessed when the flow to the Centrifugal
Compressor is reduced or the density of the fluid entering
the Compressor is altered to greater extent, pressure is
reduced to a lower extent. the surge valve opens and
increases the flow to the suction there by bringing back
the condition to normal operation there by saving the
equipment from damage.
Spill back on the other hand is one way of controlling the
exit flow to the downstream section from the compressor.
One should not confuse with surge control valve and spill
back controller

Answer / ramana reddy
The operation of a compressor at flows lower or output
pressure more than that at a "surge line" causes unstable
compressor operation. "Surging" occurs

QUANTUM BIOLOGY - EXAMPLE 33.9 : (a) Let ^ be the symbol of power where 10 ^ 1 = 10, 10 ^ 2 = 100, 10 ^ 3 = 1000 etc. Total energy consumption of the brain is about 25 Watts, whereas a Blue Gene computer requires 1.5 Mega Watts. Blue Gene computer performs at 1 petaflop. In a human body, there are approximately 10 ^ 16 synapse operations per second i. e. at least 10 petaflops. Prove by calculations that a human brain is more energy efficient than a Blue Gene computer. (b) Quantum effects and quantum entanglement in the brain are identical to quantum gravity and string theory. If one is true, the other is true. What conclusion can be made if quantum effects in the brain and quantum gravity are true?

HEAT TRANSFER - EXAMPLE 5.3 : In a cylinder with a hollow, let a is outside radius and b is the inside radius. In a steady state temperature distribution with no heat generation, the differential equation is (d / dr) (r dT / dr) = 0 where r is for radius and T is for temperature. (a) Integrate the heat equation above into T(r) in term of r. (b) At r = a, T = c; at r = b, T = d. Find the heat equation of T(r) in term of r, a, b, c, d.
