    • CST14 - Design and Implementation of Swirl Brakes for Enhanced Rotordynamic Stability in an Off?shore Centrifugal Compressor 
      Cave, Michael; Moulton, David; Eldridge, Thom; Wilkes, Jason; Clarke, Chris; Venkataraman, Balaji; Moore, Jeff (Turbomachinery Laboratory; Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station; Texas A & M University. Libraries, [2019])
      Rotordynamic stability of gas compressors at high speeds and operating pressures is a significant technical challenge. Dynamic instability must be avoided for the sake of safe, reliable and continuous operation of ...
    • OPERATION OF CENTRIFUGAL COMPRESSORS IN CHOKE CONDITIONS 
      Kurz, Rainer; Fowler, Edward; Marechale, Russell; Ji, Min; Cave, Michael (Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2013)
      Centrifugal compressors are at times required to operate in or near the choke region. Various limits of the degree of allowable operation in choke have been established. Based on test data and numerical data, the behavior ...
