Evans, B. Fred; Mccraw, James F.; Elliott, Greg (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2000)Test stand vibration measurements on a partially loaded 54,000 hp, parallel shaft, double helical speed increaser revealed synchronous resonant vibrations near normal operating speed. Further testing confirmed the lateral ...

Evans, B. Fred; Shabi, Larry G. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1998)A large, double ended drive synchronous motor experienced severe, limiting lateral vibration during commissioning of a major plant expansion. The motor driving a centrifugal compressor providing process air is decoupled ...
