| dc.description.abstract | Current design technology applied to existing rotating equipment can produce significant energy and maintenance dollar savings. The results achieved when a two-stage topping turbine was retrofitted to a three-stage configuration are presented. This unit is used to drive a synthesis gas compressor train in a 1000 ton/day Kellogg ammonia plant. The topping turbine retrofitting was conducted by Transamerica Delaval for Canadian Industries, Limited in their Sarnia, Ontario plant. The presentation is broken into two parts: the first part examines the modifications made for performance improvements, and the second part examines the modifications made for improved mechanical performance. Data are presented comparing the rotor response predictions of both design and the actual field test results. | en |
