Improving Pump Reliability And Longevity By Running In The Sweet Zone
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2013)
Separation Seal Upgrade To Overcome Repetitive Failures
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2013)
Influence Of Impeller Suction Specific Speed On Vibration Performance
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2013)
The most commonly used hard limitation for pump suction specific speed is 11,000 (US units). This hard limit grew out of the recommendations from a 1982 reliability study by J.L. Hallam (Hallam 1982). Concomitant testing ...
Breaking The Cycle Of Pump Repairs
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2014)
Of the numerous process centrifugal pumps undergoing repair right this very minute, an estimated 90% have failed randomly before. Some have run just fine until the very first repair two or three years after startup, and ...
Factors Affecting Oil Ring And Slinger Lubricant Delivery & Stability
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2014)
The choice of which lubrication strategy to apply for pump bearings has implications for both the short term characteristics exhibited by the bearings and their long term reliability. When lubricating rolling element ...

Improving The Reliability Of A Decoking Jet Pump Train With A Hydrodynamic Variable Speed Drive
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M University, 2010)
Delayed coking is a refining process that consists of the upgrading of petroleum residues into lighter and more valuable hydrocarbon fractions by promoting thermal cracking on the residue stream. Petroleum coke is a ...
Conversion Of A Pipeline Station From Centrifugal To Rotary Positive Displacement Pumps
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M University, 2010)
A major U.S. pipeline company was experiencing multiple problems at a crude pipeline intermediate pump station: Pipeline pumps were rated for 3500 to 7000 bph on 20 cSt crude (original design); Reliability and mean time ...
