In this model all compressors in the train have the same speed, and the model is build on a forward model of
the fluid properties/state where speed is a parameter. Then the speed is iterated until the discharge pressure of the
outlet is equal to the requested discharge pressure.
outlet is equal to the requested discharge pressure. If the resulting discharge pressure is not low enough to meet the
requested discharge pressure by iterating on speed only, an attempt is made to find a solution using the defined
[Fixed speed pressure control](/about/modelling/setup/models/compressor_modelling/fixed_speed_pressure_control/index.md) with the speed fixed at the minimum speed.

This model only supports `User defined variable speed compressor chart`.

# PRESSURE_CONTROL

## Description
`PRESSURE_CONTROL` is required when a compressor model is defined. This dictates how the compressor will be controlled, the method for pressure control are as follows:
The `PRESSURE_CONTROL` dictates how the compressor will be controlled when running on a fixed speed. The available
methods for pressure control are as follows:

- DOWNSTREAM_CHOKE (default)
- UPSTREAM_CHOKE
- INDIVIDUAL_ASV_PRESSURE
- INDIVIDUAL_ASV_RATE
- COMMON_ASV

`PRESSURE_CONTROL` is in use for the following types of compressor trains:
- [`Single speed compressor train model`](/about/modelling/setup/models/compressor_modelling/compressor_models_types/single_speed_compressor_train_model.md)
- [`Variable speed compressor train model`](/about/modelling/setup/models/compressor_modelling/compressor_models_types/variable_speed_compressor_train_model.md)
- [`Variable speed compressor train model with multiple streams and pressures`](/about/modelling/setup/models/compressor_modelling/compressor_models_types/variable_speed_compressor_train_model_with_multiple_streams_and_pressures.md)

Further description on how each pressure control method works can be found in [Fixed speed pressure control](/about/modelling/setup/models/compressor_modelling/fixed_speed_pressure_control/index.md)
