Abstract
In one embodiment, a method and a system for determining the operating state of a dynamic compressor that is mechanically connected to an electrical machine and that is equipped with a rotor that exchanges energy with a known fluid by rotating at a speed and with a driving mechanical torque, and in particular for determining the operating point of the dynamic compressor and the distance of the operating point from a surge limit curve, which delimits a stable operation zone from an unstable operation zone of the dynamic compressor.
