Evaluation and Successful Modification of Impeller Using Forced Response Analysis
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2008)
Investigation of Corrosion Fatigue Phenomena in Transient Zone and Preventive Coating and Blade Design Against Fouling and Corrosive Environment for Mechanical Drive Turbines
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2008)
For mechanical drive steam turbines, the investigation results of corrosion fatigue phenomena in the transient zone are introduced, including basic phenomena on expansion line and actual design and damage experience. These ...
Design and Mitigation Techniques for Applications with Possible Liquid Contamination of the Sealing Gas Dry Gas Seal System
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2008)
A compressor in a natural gas gathering service experienced multiple seal failures on the discharge end. Synthetic oil mist contained in the sealing gas was identified as a significant source of contamination that caused ...
Solving Structural Vibration Problems Using Operating Deflection Shape (ODS) Analysis
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2008)
VFD Induced Coupling Failure
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2008)
A catastrophic failure of a high performance disc coupling connecting the speed increaser and LP compressor in a VFD controlled 18,300 HP motor/speed increaser/LP compressor/HP compressor train, led to months of reduced ...
A New Method of Accurately Identifying the Location and Movement of Forward and Backward Bending Modes Using Magnetically Suspended Rotor Systems
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2008)
Rotordynamic calculations done on most turbomachinery often discount or even completely ignore the “backward” modes. In fact, many rotating equipment engineers have never observed a backward mode, leading some to doubt ...
Report on the Development of the Format for a Texas Residential Registry
(Energy Systems Laboratory, 2008-12)
Forage legumes for Texas

Proper Use of Sulfonamides in Market Show Animals
(2008-02-14)
When administering a drug to a show animal, the owner is responsible for ensuring that there will be no drug residues in the animal's urine when it is tested at a show. Sulfonamides are of special concern because, even ...
Environmentally related water trading, transfers and environmental flows: welfare, water demand and flows
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
This dissertation reports on economic studies of Texas Interbasin Water Transfers
(IBT) as a way to lessen expected water shortages, Texas minimum freshwater inflows
requirements (FWIB) to protect environmental flows and ...
