compressor surge
condition achieved in a centrifugal compressor when the momentum of the refrigerant gas through the compressor is insufficient to overcome the thermal lift requirement. Direction of flow temporarily reverses through the compressor until the lift requirement decreases. The condition repeats until the operating condition is corrected. Accelerated wear and damage can eventually result.
