(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1986)
Visual Studies Of Cavitation In Pumping Machinery
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1986)
The visual study of cavitation in pumping machinery now plays an important role in its development-particularly where high stage energies are concerned. The incomplete picture provided by traditional head decay tests is ...
A Solution For Variable Speed Vertical Pump Vibration Problems
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1985)
Flow Field Investigation For A Series Of Right Angle Minimum Axial Depth Pump Intakes
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1985)
A series of right-angle pump intakes, incorporating minimum axial depths and decelerating flows, has been experimentally evaluated using an air flow test procedure. Performance was measured, internal flow fields observed ...
Changes In Hydraulic Component Geometries Greatly Increased Power Plant Availability And Reduced Maintenance Costs: Case Histories
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1984)
A systematic investigation was started within the Texas Utilities Generating Company Power station feedwater pump systems due to unsatisfactory unit availability, frequent equipment breakdown, high maintenance costs, and ...
The Analysis Of Surge
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1980)
Recently, considerable attention has been given to the phenomenon of surge in compressors and pumps. Typically, the model under study is a Helmholtz resonator and driver where the flow in the delivery duct to the resonator ...
Compressor Performance Modelling And Monitoring.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1987)
One of Du Pont's plants operates a 20,000 hp synchronous motor driven process air compressor consisting offour compression sections and three intercoolers (Figure 1). A six percent capacity increase from refitting the first ...
Revamping The Air Compressor In An Ammonia Plant.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1987)
Revamping the compression equipment in an ammonia plant can help optimize plant output and improve overall efficiency. In this case, proper sizing of the revamp is important for optimum results.
The reformer air compressor ...
