Cave, Michael; Moulton, David; Eldridge, Thom; Wilkes, Jason; Clarke, Chris; Venkataraman, Balaji; Moore, Jeff (Turbomachinery Laboratory; Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station; Texas A & M University. Libraries, [2019])Rotordynamic stability of gas compressors at high speeds and operating pressures is a significant technical challenge. Dynamic instability must be avoided for the sake of safe, reliable and continuous operation of ...

Kim, Eunseok; Venkataraman, Balaji (Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station; Texas A & M University. Libraries; Texas A & M University. Libraries, 2021)Minimizing fluid induced forces through the secondary leakage flow paths in shrouded centrifugal impellers is crucial to improve the rotordynamic stability of high-pressure centrifugal gas compressors. Swirl brakes (SBs) ...

Venkataraman, Balaji; Kurz, Rainer; Gonzalez, Francisco; Rajagopalan, Vinayaka; Favela, Beatriz; Hodgson, Lance (Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station; Texas A & M University. Libraries, [2019])Turbomachinery depends on optimal rotor-bearing systems for reliable operation. One type of rotor construction is the concept of modular rotors. While gas turbines have implemented this concept extensively, there has been ...
