Axial Compressor Deterioration Caused By Saltwater Ingestion
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2006)
Gas turbine performance deterioration can be a major economic factor. An example is within offshore installations where a degradation of gas turbine performance can mean a reduction of oil and gas production. This paper ...
Tuning Your Fuel Gas Delivery System
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2006)
Saudi Aramco has focused more attention in recent years on fuel gas conditioning for land-based industrial and aeroderivative combustion gas turbines CGTs. Hydrocarbon dew points and entrained solids are two important fuel ...
Online Water Wash Tests Of GE J85-13
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2006)
This paper reports the results of a series of online water wash tests of a GE J85-13 jet engine at the test facilities of the Royal Norwegian Air force. The engine performance was deteriorated by injecting atomized saltwater ...
Torsional Vibration Analysis And Testing Of Synchronous Motor-Driven Turbomachinery.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2002)
One of the foremost concerns facing turbomachinery users today is that of torsional vibration. In contrast to lateral rotordynamics problems, torsional failures are especially heinous since the first symptom of a problem ...
