(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1977)The presentation will cover fluid film bearing fundamental theory and design criteria. Since the subject is extensive, the design portion will be restricted to hydrodynamic (self-acting) bearing mode using liquid lubricants. ...
-
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2011)Bearings constitute one of the most critical components in turbo and rotating machinery today. Their influence on the rotordynamic performance, life, and reliability of the machine cannot be ignored. Many of the problems ...
-
(2019-04-15)Heat and fluid transport govern many problems in the field of petroleum engineering. Their applications are widespread in almost all aspects of the petroleum production system. This study focuses on one aspect of this ...
-
(1993)An attempt was made to visualize the flow in a multiple disk centrifugal pump blood flow device. The purpose of the fluid flow visualization study was to determine if regions of high shear stress or stagnant flow existed ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1993)artificial lift in the U.S.A. It has been reported numerous times in the literature to exceed 85% of non-flowing well's lift systems. The efficient maintenance and operation of these wells is essential for them to remain ...

(2012-12-12)Much speculation on extraterrestrial life has focused on finding environments where water is present. Heating of smaller icy bodies may create and sustain a possible liquid layer below the surface. If liquid water was ...
-
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station; Texas A & M University. Libraries; Texas A & M University. Libraries, 2020)Centrifugal compressor impellers experience dynamic loading from flow structures generated by upstream and downstream compressor components. This loading can cause high cycle fatigue and ultimately impeller failure if not ...
-
(2018-11-30)Nuclear reactors pump coolant through their core and heat exchangers at massive mass flow rates to sustain energy production. These demanding requirements push engineers to extreme levels of optimization to safely sustain ...
-
(2016-03-03)The problem of interaction between fluids and structures is of practical significance in many fields of engineering. This interaction has to be taken into account in analyzing floating objects, ship sloshing, fluid containers ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1980)Fluidic Cat Crackers (FCC) using the catalyst regeneration cycle are candidates for more power efficient operation by the use of high temperature dirty gas expanders. In a previous paper, a computer simulation was described ...
-
(2011-08-08)Frequency selective surfaces (FSSs) provide a variety of spatial filtering functions, such as band-pass or band-stop properties in a radome or other multilayer structure. This filtering is typically achieved through ...
-
(2014-12-16)This work presents the development of a hybrid reconfiguration technique used to achieve both frequency and polarization diversity in a 2.4 – 2.5 GHz microstrip antenna. This hybrid solution for the first time combines ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)A fluidized bed heat exchanger already successfully applied for heat transfer applications involving severely fouling liquids, can also be used in making slush-ice. Overwhelming world-wide interest confirms the ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)The Fluidized-Bed Waste-Heat Recovery (FBWHR) System is a combustion air preheater designed for existing unrecuperated industrial furnaces, where dirty and corrosive flue gases cause severe fouling and materials problems. ...
-
(2018-10-25)Granulites-facies mineral assemblages typically require values of activity of Hv2O (aHv2O) significantly less than unity, and these values are reduced relative to lower grade rocks. Possible mechanisms for lowering values ...
-
(2013-07-10)Uncertainties persist regarding the assessment of the carcinogenic risk associated with galactic cosmic ray (GCR) exposure. The GCR spectrum peaks in the range of 300 MeV/n to 700 MeV/n and is comprised of elemental ions ...
