Windback seal design for gas compressors: a numerical and experimental study
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
Seals are considered one of the important flow elements of a turbomachinery device.
Traditional labyrinth seals have proven their performance functionality by reducing leakage
rates. Significant improvements on labyrinth ...
Measurement of rotordynamic coefficients for a high-speed flexure pivot tilting-pad bearing(load between pad) configuration
(Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)
This thesis presents the dynamic and static forced performance of a flexure-pivot tilting-pad bearing load between pad (LBP) configuration for different rotor speeds and bearing unit loadings. The bearing has the following ...
