Development Of Turbomachinery Industry In Japan
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1977)
This paper deals with the development of the turbomachinery industry in Japan for the past five years. The machinery discussed includes gas turbines, gas expanders, turbochargers, steam turbines, compressors, blowers, and ...
Turbine Rotors Whirl After Dynamically Stable Designs Are Updated
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1977)
The problem of steam turbine rotor whirling following uprating of a stable design and the measures taken to define the problem and implement a solution are described. Nearly identical units installed at several of Union ...
Repair And Rehabilitation Of Turbomachinery Foundations
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1977)
The developing of solutions to foundation problems is no longer the frustration it once was. Experience has led to better understanding of problem causes. Technology is evolving to the state that repairs are reliable. ...
A Discussion Of Turbine And Compressor Sealing Devices And Systems
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1977)
This discussion briefly summarizes some of the devices, seal systems, and operating parameters encountered with turbines and compressors, but because of the magnitude of technical information that would be required, the ...
Balancing Of Multimass Flexible Rotors
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1976)
In this paper, we will consider only the problem of synchronous rotor response due to unbalance. There are numerous complex nonsynchronous vibrations that can occur in rotating machinery. Quite often the nonsynchronous ...
Field Testing Of Compressors
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1976)
An accurate evaluation of the performance of a dynamic rotary compressor is of paramount interest to the builder and user of this type of machinery because it defines the ability of a machine to perform a specific job and ...
Pulsations In Liquid Pumps And Piping Systems
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1976)
The existence of high intensity, low frequency pulsation problems in centrifugal compressor and pump piping systems has now been well documented throughout industry. Strong pulsations have been observed at frequencies ...
Turbomachinery Noise Rating
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1976)
An expression of the noise rating of a machine is an important part of its performance specification. Precautions should be taken, however, to make sure that the noise emission specification keeps the true objective in ...
Coupling Misalignment Forces
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1976)
Misalignment of machinery shafts causes reaction forces to be generated in the coupling which affect the machines and are often a major cause of machinery vibration. The reaction forces generated by the couplings are ...
