    • Brun, Klaus; Nored, Marybeth; Kurz, Rainer (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2012)
      Solid particle admission is one of the principal damage and failure mechanisms in turbomachines such as gas turbines, axial, and centrifugal compressors. Significant interest exists within the turbomachinery industry to ...
    • Brun, Klaus; Kurz, Rainer; Nored, Marybeth (Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2013)
      This tutorial provides an overview of typical packaging options for gas turbines in industrial applications. Applicable standards are discussed. The requirements for different systems, such as air filtration, and fuel ...
    • Brun, Klaus; Nored, Marybeth; Kurz, Rainer (Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
      The performance of a centrifugal compressor is usually defined by its head versus flow map, limited by the surge and stall regions. This map is critical to assess the operating range of a compressor for both steady state ...
    • Brun, Klaus; Kurz, Rainer; Nored, Marybeth; Thorp, Joseph (Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2013)
      The usage of an industrial inlet fogging and overspraying system on a 35,000 hp frame type industrial gas turbine in high pressure gas reinjection service was aimed to provide additional shaft power output and improved ...
