Discussion Group T13: Screw Compressors
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
Couplings and Rotating Machines
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
This course covers the application of couplings and rotating machines. Initially the driver and driven machines are analysed together with their characteristics, and how they affect the coupling. The various types of ...
Reciprocating Compressors 101: The User's Perspective
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
This course will present the basic concepts of reciprocating compressor applications from a user’s perspective. There is an introductory section on application basics (why recips?), including selection criteria and industry ...

(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
Gas Turbine Packaging Options And Features
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
This tutorial provides an overview of typical packaging options for gas turbines in industrial applications. Applicable standards are discussed. The requirements for different systems, such as air filtration and fuel systems ...
Coupling Guard Temperature And Windage Power Loss: Cfd Analysis And Experiments
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
High temperatures inside coupling guards can cause machinery down time and loss of revenue. As a result, many industries invest significant time and effort trying to reduce heat generation. Windage flanges are a standard ...
Subsynchronous Vibrations On Turboexpanders Equipped With Magnetic Bearings Assessment, Understanding And Solutions
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
In most natural gas applications, turboexpanders are operating close to or on the dew point line and a mixture entering the turboexpander impeller is a combination of liquid and gas phases of the natural gas. The presence ...
Electromagnetic Effects On The Torsional Natural Frequencies Of An Induction Motor Driven Reciprocating Compressor With A Soft Coupling
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
The electromagnetic field in the air gap of an electric motor is responsible for producing torque between the rotor and stator. The analysis and design of motor-driven equipment trains can be improved by including this ...
Application of Dynamic pressure-balanced Seals in a Multi-stage Centrifugal Compressor
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
Test results for an ASME Power Test Code 10 (PTC) Type 1 test of a 4,500 psia (310 Bara) discharge pressure gas lift centrifugal compressor outfitted with dynamic pressure-balanced seals at the impeller eyes; shaft interstage ...
