    • Atypical Results from Improperly Sized & Charged Pulsation Dampeners 
      Poerner, Nathan; Souther, Tappan; Cook, Trenton; Broerman, Eugene (Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2017)
    • Atypical Results from Improperly Sized & Charged Pulsation Dampeners 
      Poerner, Nathan; Broerman, Eugene; Souther, Tappan; Cook, Trenton (Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
      At a facility with four quintuplex pumps, pulsation dampeners were being used to control pulsations in the discharge line. However, the initial dampeners were both undersized and undercharged for the application. As a ...
    • A Case Study of Vibration in Positive Displacement Pump Systems 
      Cook, Trenton (Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
      Positive displacement pump systems can experience high piping vibrations. System vibration can have many root causes- including underdamped fluid pulsations, mechanical resonance, and poor skid design. This case study shows ...
    • Mechanical, Stress and Flow Considerations for Piping Design of Centrifugal Compressors 
      White, Ben; Bueno, Pablo; Fierro, Frank; Cook, Trenton (Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
      This tutorial covers a range of factors that must be considered in the piping design associated with the installation of any new centrifugal compressor system. Multiple factors must be balanced in the piping design to have ...
