Critical Speeds Of Turbomachinery: Computer Predictions Vs. Experimental Measurements.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1984)
As a result of a continuing demand for increased performance, modern turbomachines are sometimes designed to operate near a critical speed. Machines for petrochemical and natural gas service have been purchased and delivered ...
Lubrication And Seal Oil Systems.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1984)
Within the last decade, user requirements for higher process pressures and improved efficiencies have led the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) to provide rotating equipment that operates in speed and pressure ranges ...
Journal Bearing Design Types And Their Applications To Turbomachinery.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1984)
A review of several different types of hydrodynamic journal bearings that are commonly found in turbomachinery is presented. Emphasis is placed on the key geometric design parameters of each type. The discussion covers ...
Temperature Measurements in Fluid Film Bearings
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1984)
Temperature measurements have been widely used in the past to monitor the conditions within hydrodynamic journal and thrust bearings. These temperature readings are appreciably affected by changes in the operating conditions ...
