Abstract

A compressor airflow control assembly is operable to control airflow through a centrifugal compressor. The control assembly includes an air valve mounted in the airflow path to control airflow through the compressor. The control assembly also includes a controller operable to sense an airflow condition and control shifting of the air valve.
