Fundamentals of Signal Processing Applied to Rotating Machinery Diagnostics
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
Rotating machinery diagnostics have been, and will be, a critical area in the Oil and Gas Industry. Though in the early days oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers were typically used to analyze vibration data, in recent ...
Monitoring a Tandem Dry Gas Seal's Secondary Seal
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
Rotating equipment and instrument engineers working with dry gas seals should attend this tutorial to increase their knowledge of methods for monitoring secondary seals. Over the last several years a number of compressor ...
Gas Turbine Degradation
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
There is a strong incentive for gas turbine operators to minimize and control performance degradation, as this directly affects profitability. The area of gas turbine recoverable and non-recoverable performance degradation ...
2x Pinion Vibration Problems and Solutions for Motor-Gear-Compressor Trains During Commissioning
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
Two Pole Motor Vibration Diagnostics, Analysis and Solution
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
Combustion, Fuels and Emissions for Industrial Gas Turbines
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
It is important that gas turbines used in Oil & Gas applications can burn a wide variety of fuels with the minimum impact on the environment or economics. Many types of gaseous and liquid fuels that can be used in Gas ...
Overview of Important Considerations in Wet Gas Compression Testing and Analysis
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
During upstream production of natural gas fields, it is common that a gas-liquid mixture of product is brought to the surface. The mixture, termed wet gas, is generally made up of mostly gas with a small amount of liquid, ...
Investigation and Analysis of High Thrust Bearing Temperature After Field Overhaul and Rerate of a Centrifugal Compressor
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
A centrifugal compressor in olefins plant charge gas service experienced excessive thrust bearing temperatures after startup following a field overhaul and rerate. While the machine was online, an analytical study was ...
Remote Monitoring & Diagnostics as Applied to a Reciprocating Compressor Head
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
High stretch direction vibration (differential displacement) on a reciprocating compressor cylinder head indicated possible crack. Facility requested path forward options until replacement 4 head arrived (3 months). This ...
Discussion Group T12: Integrally Geared Compressors
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
