Lessons Learned from Continuous Commissioning® of a LEED Gold Building in Texas
(2008-09-22)
The subject building is a relatively new building with 120,000 square feet located in Texas and was the first LEED® Gold building in the area. To earn the title of a green building, the designers of this high performance ...

Prevention Of Torsional Vibration Problems In Reciprocating Machinery.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2009)
Torsional vibration problems continue to occur in reciprocating engine and compressor installation. This is due in part to the fact that reciprocating equipment can produce significantly more torsional excitation than ...
Selection Of Materials And Material Related Processes For Fcc Power Recovery Turbines.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2009)
Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) power recovery turbines have been in existence for over 50 years and through the year many changes have been made to design, materials, and material related processes. This paper highlights ...
Intermittent Spikes On Vibration And Motor Current Caused By Water Carryover On The Third Stage Of A Centrifugal Air Compressor.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2009)
Feasibility study on the use of side channel pumps for low viscosity fluids, with fracking or other hydrocarbon processing applications
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
Side channel pumps typically are used in applications with low specific speed. The ratio of the low flow and high head tends to result in this niche product, located in between the classical displacement and centrifugal ...
Pulsation Analysis In Positive Displacement Pump Systems Using Waterhammer, Modal And Animation Software
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
High-pressure and flow metering systems often include a positive displacement (PD) pump and a network of piping and process equipment. Steady state pressure and flow dynamics (pulsation) is a common problem in PD pump ...
Emerging Advanced Technologies to Assess Reliability of Industrial Steam Turbine Blade Design
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2008)
New industrial processes sometimes require equipment that either has not yet been applied to the new use or even a completely new design. In some situations, established design criteria that have resulted in reliable ...
A Review of Aerodynamically Induced Forces Acting on Centrifugal Compressors, and Resulting Vibration Characteristics of Rotors
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2008)
There are several sources of nonsynchronous forced vibration of centrifugal compressor rotors. Many of them are aerodynamic phenomena, created within the gas path of the compressor. Phenomena such as impeller stall, diffuser ...
The Application Of Ultrasonic Technology To Improve The Reliability Of Magnetic-Drive Centrifugal Pumps
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
It is widely acknowledged that sealless magnetic drive pumps give total containment of the pumped process liquid, which in an industry where there are ever tightening environmental constraints on plant operation and ...
