    • Pembroke, John P.; Sabini, Eugene P.; Littlefield, David E. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1998)
      In 1991, four large double suction cooling pumps were installed at a chemical plant in Texas. Although these pumps met performance specifications on the test stand, they proved to be noisy when installed. Sound power levels ...
    • Stavale, Anthony E.; Lorenc, Jerome A.; Sabini, Eugene P. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2001)
      In today’s global economy, process plants are under constant pressure to reduce costs. Users can no longer afford their attempts to make pumps bulletproof by upgrading component specifications. The development of a smart ...
    • Sabini, Eugene P.; Fraser, Warren H. (Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1987)
      Charts relating the efficiency of a single stage centrifugal pump to the specific speed were presented at the Texas A&M University Third International Pump Symposium in April 1986 [1]. These charts attempted to resolve ...
    • Sabini, Eugene P.; Fraser, Warren H. (Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1986)
      A chart relating the efficiency of centrifugal pumps to the specific speed and capacity at the maximum efficiency capacity has been in use in the pump industry for almost forty years. While it has been useful to both the ...
    • Netzel, James P.; Sabini, Eugene P. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2002)
      This tutorial will help the user to distinguish between premature failure and failure due to the normal wear-out process. Once the normal wear-out process has been identified, then what technologies can be used to minimize ...
