Centrifugal Compressors 201
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
This course supplements the Centrifugal Compressor 101 course by covering in greater detail four key areas related to compressors: aerodynamics, rotordynamics, performance and mechanical testing, and surge control. It is ...
Introduction to sCO2 Power Cycles, Applications, Turbomachinery, Heat Exchangers, and Research Programs
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
The recent interest to use supercritical CO2 (sCO2) in power cycle applications over the past decade has resulted in a large amount of literature that focuses on specific areas related to sCO2 power cycles in great detail. ...

Tutorial on Centrifugal Compressor Surge Control
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
For every centrifugal compressor installation, the design of the surge control system is vitally important to prevent damage of the compressor internal components, seals, and bearings. While most surge control systems are ...
Testing of A 10 MWE Supercritical CO2 Turbine
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
A new high temperature turbine was developed for use a sCO2 closed-loop recompression Brayton cycle. This turbine was developed for Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) applications (700+C), but its application includes traditional ...
Troubleshooting of Sub-synchronous Torsional Interaction Phenomena on an Electric Motor-Driven Centrifugal Compressor
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
This case study discusses the identification, troubleshooting, and correction of a torsional instability in an electric motor-driven driveline with variable frequency drive (VFD) for a high-pressure gas compressor test ...
