Table of Contents for the Proceedings of the 18th Turbomachinery Symposium
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1989)
Setting Vibration Criteria For Turbomachinery.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1989)
Vibration of a journal within a fluid film bearing produces a dynamic load on the babbitted bearing surfaces. A rational vibration criterion can be based on a consistent magnitude of this dynamic load among widely different ...
Vibration Monitoring Of Turbomachinery.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1990)
The overall concept of vibration monitoring is presented based upon theory and the practical constraints of machinery construction, transducer characteristics and the cost/benefit ratio of available systems. General features ...
Gas Turbine Control Systems Incorporating Condition Monitoring And Fault Tolerance.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1990)
Novel concepts in gas turbine control technology incorporating condition monitoring and fault tolerance are described. Concerns with fault tolerance, system reliability, and users functionalities are discussed. The importance ...
An Independent Refiner's Approach - Practical Solutions To Complex Gear Problems.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1990)
Numerous failures and near failures spanning the last quarter century have occurred on a 4000 hp, single induction, double helical speed increaser in hydrogen recycle service. A persistent and unexplainable wear pattern, ...
Specifying, Manufacturing, And Testing A Cryogenic Turboexpander Magnetic Bearing System.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1991)
The state-of-the-art magnetic bearing system, as it exists today, has several unique characteristics which tend to make certain applications of this technology more favorable than others. One application which seems quite ...

Maximizing Compressor Efficiency While Maintaining Reliability.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1989)
The natural gas and chemical processing industries have historically and necessarily demanded high reliability from their centrifugal compressors, which has led to a significant emphasis on field experience of designs. ...
Monitoring Repairs To Your Pumps
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1995)
Many centrifugal pumps are doomed to premature failure because the total pump installation was not evaluated or the repair activity coordinated to correct the basic cause of the initial failure. Pump users have a great ...
Rotordynamic Developments For High Speed Multistage Pumps
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1986)
At present, the majority factor limiting the designer’s ability to predict the rotordynamic behavior of multistage centrifugal pumps is the availability of accurate input data for the forces acting on the rotor. Recent ...
