Experimental Investigation Of Balancing Flexible Rotors In Large Motors And Generators
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1981)
The balancing of large motor and generator rotors is accomplished by a combination of balance machine corrections plus the calculated corrections determined by an Influence Coefficient Balancing computer program. The method ...
Techniques For More Accurate Centrifugal Compressor Performance Evaluation
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1981)
The evaluation of the installed performance of a centrifugal compressor unit involves two phases of effort. First, good field test data must be obtained on suction and discharge pressures and temperatures, rotating speed, ...
Large Adjustable Speed Drives And Their Application To A High Speed Centrifugal Compressor
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1981)
New applications are being found for adjustable speed drives due to: 1) the availability of high current solid-state devices, 2) a simplified inverter design with large scale integrated circuits (LSI), and 3) because of ...
Continuous Monitoring Systems For High Speed Gearing
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1982)
The most effective methods for monitoring the health of high speed gearing is currently generating more interest and discussion than any other aspect of machinery health monitoring. Both structurally and dynamically, a ...
Frequency Convertors For Starting And Speed Regulations Of AC Motors For Turbomachine Applications

Field Performance Testing To Improve Compressor Reliability
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1981)
Performance testing is an important factor in equipment reliability. This paper discusses increasing the reliability of critical process compressors by field performance testing in addition to a manufacturer’s shop performance ...
LNG Liquefaction Plants - Overview, Design & Operations: Short Course
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
Subtracting Residual Unbalance For Improved Test Stand Vibration Correlation.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1997)
The importance of correlating rotordynamic analytical results to actual test data has become extremely important in recent years. Many user specifications require the verification of vendor generated analytical results in ...
High Speed Electric Drive Applications - An Overview.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1997)
Worldwide, current technology has opened a wide range of new applications for electric motors, many of which have traditionally employed mechanical (turbine) drivers. While the use of electric motors for these high speed ...
Steam Turbine Risk Assessment - A Tool To Assist In Optimizing Inspection And Overhauls Of Industrial Steam Turbines.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1997)
There are currently no-or at best, very limited-industry guidelines or requirements on which to quantify the risk associated with turbine inspection intervals. Insurance industry data indicate that steam turbines are a ...
