Investigating Root Causes of Catu Compressor Station Shut-Down Due to High Discharge TemperatureInvestigating Root Causes of Catu Compressor Station Shut-Down Due to High Discharge Temperature (Supplemental Material)
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
One of the most important compressor stations operated by Petrobras Transporte S.A. – TRANSPETRO – is called Catu Compressor Station, which operates for the GASENE gas pipeline, usually compressing gas in order to attend ...

Discussion Group T13: Turbomachinery Bearings and Annular Seals
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
Discussion Group P6: Mechanical Seals
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
Mechanical seals are the most common method of sealing industrial centrifugal pumps and other rotary equipment. Although the basic concepts of a seal is simple, successfully using seals requires and an understanding of the ...
Axial Subsynchronous Vibration
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
Severe axial subsynchronous vibrations (SSV) can be encountered in turbomachinery. A major concern is the potential for danger from the high levels of vibration acting on the rotor. Longer term implications are fretting ...
Discussion Group P8: Vertical Pump Problems and Solutions
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
Discussion Group T8: Reciprocating Compressors
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
The Challenge for the Accurate Determination of the Axial Rotor Thrust in Centrifugal Compressors
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
The axial thrust is basically generated by a pressure imbalance across the impeller. The impeller is subjected to a great force trying to move it against the incoming flow. The cumulative thrust of all impellers on the ...
