Discussion Group P7 Mechanical Seals
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2012)
Evaluation of Bearing Designs for a Multistage Centrifugal Compressor Using a Magnetic Exciter
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2012)
The amount of damping in the rotor/bearing system is the key to stability of centrifugal gas compressors, especially for rotors with high slenderness ratio. A full pressure performance test can certainly demonstrate whether ...
Gas Turbine Performance And Maintenance
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2012)
Proper maintenance and operating practices can significantly affect the level of performance degradation and thus, time between repairs or overhauls of a gas turbine. Understanding of performance characteristics of gas ...
A Comparative Analysis of Residential Energy Use for 2009 IECC Code Compliance and 2001 IECC Compliance with 2006 NAECA Appliance Standards for Selected Climate Zones in Texas
(Energy Systems Laboratory (Http://esl.tamu.edu), 2010-08)
This paper presents results of a comparative analysis of the electricity and natural gas savings from the implementation of 2009 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) when compared with the 2001 IECC1 specifications ...
Simplified Modal Analysis For The Plant Machinery Engineer
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2012)
Experimental modal analysis and operating deflection shapes (ODS) are powerful tools in vibration analysis and machinery troubleshooting. However, the machinery plant engineer often doesn’t believe such techniques are ...
Valve Performance And Life Of Reciprocating Compressors
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2012)
The operation of a reciprocating compressor is closely linked to the performance of its valves in terms of life and efficiency. Most operators report that the most significant cause of forced outages of reciprocating ...
Discussion Group P3 On Bearings and Lubrication
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2011)
Discussion Group T4 On Overspeed Trip Systems

Torsional and Electrical Dynamic Interactions of Compressor Drive Motors and Gas Turbine Driven Power Generators
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2013)
Load induced power fluctuations in a pair of synchronous motor driven reciprocating compressor trains have been shown to interact with a gas turbine driven power generation source. Electrical current pulsations predicted ...
Noise Trouble Shooting on a Variable Speed Planetary Gear Application for Off-Shore Process Gas Compressor
