Improving Reliability In A High Static Head System Through VFD Application
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M University, 2010)
The static head content in the total head of a pumping system (static head factor - fHS) plays an important role on energy and reliability potential gains attainable with the use of variable speed (VS) controls in pumping ...
Hydraulic Modeling And Simulation Of Pumping Systems
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M University, 2010)
New designs or modifications of existing pump facilities are required frequently in many industries due to new operating conditions, increase in product demand, pump-pipeline interaction issues, pulsation problems, net ...
Assessment Of Wear Erosion In Pump Impellers
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M University, 2010)
Wear erosion needs special attention in pump design as it can lead to severe damage of the pump and restrict its lifetime significantly. It therefore determines to a large extent the selection of a pump. During the design ...
The True Cost Of External Seal Flush (Piping Plan 32)
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M University, 2010)
Materials Selection For Seawater Pumps
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M University, 2010)
Materials used in seawater pumps depend upon many factors that include seawater quality, materials limitations and processing characteristics, as well as materials cost and availability. Many newer high alloy stainless ...
Pressurized Dual Mechanical Seals Supporting Piping Plan Developments
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M University, 2010)
The American Petroleum Institute recognizes four auxiliary piping plans for supporting pressurized dual wet mechanical seals. There is limited published information guidance as to which plan will offer the most suitable ...
Dramatic Vibration Improvement Due To Ring-Section Pump Foundation Repair Based On ODS In A Power Plant
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2010)
Investigation And Resolution Of Intermittent Loss Of Flow In A Diaphragm Metering Pump
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2010)
Pump adds an ingredient to a reaction vessel. Both short periods of loss of flow and long periods of excessive flow variation will impact product quality. Correct performance of this pump is critical to uptime and first ...
