Time frequency analysis of the surge onset was performed in centrifugal blower. Pressure signal was registered at the blower inlet, blower outlet and three locations at the impeller shroud. The time-frequency scalograms were obtained by means of the Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT). The blower was found to successively operate in four different conditions: stable working conditions, inlet recirculation, transient phase and the deep surge. Scalograms revealed different spectral structure of aforementioned phases and suggest possible ways of detecting the surge predecessors.
