Introduction To Rotordynamics Of Pumps Without Fluid Forces
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1984)
This paper is for the user of rotating equipment, Reliability is the key to the bottom line and rotordynamics is often the significant factor in determining reliability. Rotordynamics is a very interesting and complicated ...
Selection Strategy For Mechanical Shaft Seals In Petrochemical Plants
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1984)
Petrochemical plants are confronted with an increasing number of available mechanical seal designs. The user must choose from among inexpensive standard seals and exotic, high engineered seal models. We have seen seal costs ...
Acoustic Resonance Phenomena In High Energy Variable Speed Centrifugal Pumps
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1984)
The design of reliable pumps is of the utmost importance in petrochemical and power installations. Downtime can be costly in terms of lost production and in the power industry loss of generating capability. In order to ...
Predicting And Improving The Dynamic Behavior Of Multistage High Performance Pumps
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1984)
Good rotordynamic behavior, implying sufficient stability margin and low sensitivity to unbalance forces, is mandatory for modern high pressure multistage pumps. Stiffness, damping and mass matrices describing the forces ...
