Grouting Of Small Pump Baseplates? Is It Worth It?
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2004)
For pump installation most experts recommend installing conventional metallic baseplates on concrete foundations and securing them to the foundation with a combination of anchor bolts and epoxy grout. Many papers have been ...
Gas Turbine Tutorial - Maintenance And Operating Practices Effects On Degradation And Life.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2007)
Proper maintenance and operating practices can significantly affect the level of performance degradation and thus time between repairs or overhauls of a gas turbine. Proactive condition monitoring will allow the gas turbine ...
Full Speed String Test On LM6000PF Gas Turbine Driven Refrigeration Compressors
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
Chevron Australia, as part of the Wheatstone Project, constructed a two train liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility and domestic gas plant at the Ashburton North Strategic Industrial Area, 12 kilometers west of Onslow on ...
Aero-Damping Measurements And Computation In A Full-Scale Multistage Centrifugal Compressor
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
Great interest is being paid by Oil & Gas industry to the design of high speed and high pressure ratio centrifugal compressors. Static and dynamic stresses are becoming higher and, under critical conditions, aerodynamic ...
A Practical Guideline For A Successful Root Cause Failure Analysis.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2007)
Root cause failure analysis is a process for identifying the true root cause of a particular failure and using that information to set a course for corrective/preventive action. From a technical standpoint, it is usually ...
Impeller Stall Induced By Reverse Propagation Of Non-Uniform Flow Generated At Return Channel
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
In the case of centrifugal compressors, minor non-uniform flow upstream of the impeller is induced by an asymmetrical configuration in the circumferential direction at the compressor suction casing. This non-uniform flow ...
Refining Fundamentals (Unpublished).
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2007)
Bearing Issues with a Flooded Screw Compressor
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2008)
A Review Of Aerodynamically Induced Forces Acting On Centrifugal Compressors, And Resulting Vibration Characteristics Of Rotors
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
There are several sources of non-synchronous forced vibration of centrifugal compressor rotors. Many of them are aerodynamic phenomena, created within the gas path of the compressor. Phenomena such as impeller stall, ...
Redesign of Centrifugal Compressor Impeller by means of Scalloping
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
Impellers of centrifugal compressors may experience resonance with vane passing frequencies, especially when operated away from the design conditions. Resonance can cause a serious structural damage to impeller. Complete ...
