Dynamic Simulation and Testing To Assess Rundown Speed Of A Compressor
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
Dynamic simulations are frequently conducted to verify the behavior of compressor stations during transient events. The
most difficult situation to analyze is the event of an emergency shutdown, due to the very fast ...
Pulsation Amplitude Effects Of Altering Characteristics Of Gas-Liquid Dampeners
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
Transient Events in Pump Piping Systems
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2017)
CST02 - Chandlersville and St. Paul: Unique Piping Vibration Issue in a New Centrifugal Compressor Installation
(Turbomachinery LaboratoryTexas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, [2019])
An unexpected vibration issue was seen at two of Tallgrass Energys recently installed compressor stations (Chandlersville and St. Paul) and was associated with certain operating conditions when specific combinations of the ...
Applying The Energy Institute And GMRC/PRCI Guidelines For The Avoidance Or Reduction Of Vibration Problems In Small Diameter Piping Branch Connections
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
Pump piping systems typically have small diameter branch connections that can develop vibration related fatigue failures due to mechanical excitation. Many installations do not take time to design small diameter piping to ...
Solving an Acoustic Resonance in Crude Oil Pump Internals
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
Specific Problem: Crude oil pump piping system that had previously operated without problems experienced a failure resulting in a release of oil: Vibration increased when a new well was opened and the fluid properties ...
Pump Piping System Case Study - Insufficient Dampeners
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M University, 2012)
TL07 - Direct Head Measurments for Turbomachinery Design
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, [2019])
The isentropic head is one of the most important physical properties for the design and testing of compressors and turbines. It is a critical parameter for the determination of machinery work and power from test data and ...
Accidental Excitation of Acoustic Resonances from Balance Holes on Rotating Disk
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2021)
During commissioning of an open-casing test rig, a loud (above 105 dB) high pitch “squealing” sound occurred at speeds above 3,000 rpm. All elements of the rig were removed except the bearings yet the noise persisted. ...
