(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 ...
Centrifugal Stage Performance Prediction And Validation For High Mach Number Applications
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2012)
Centrifugal compressors used for process applications like Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) plants require operation at high machine Mach numbers (>1) due to the heavy gas and reduced footprint requirements. Performance guarantees ...
Steady State Performance Prediction Of Directly Lubricated Fluid Film Journal Bearings
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2012)
Predicting the performance of directly lubricated bearings is a challenge facing bearing manufacturers and end users alike. In this study, thermoelastohydrodynamic (TEHD) theories are applied to analyze three directly ...
VSDS Motor Inverter Design Concept For Compressor Trains Avoiding Interharmonics In Operating Speed Range
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2012)
During operation of compressor trains by a variable speed drive system (VSDS), integer and non-integer harmonic currents are generated in the inverter. Via the electrical system of the inverter and the motor, an excitation ...
Babbitted Bearing Health Assessment
