    • Advances In Erosion Prediction Of Axial Flow Expanders. 
      Carbonetto, Ben; Hoch, Greg (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1999)
      Hot gas expander flow path erosion costs the refining industry millions of dollars per shutdown in labor, material, and lost production to replace eroded components. With erosion being the life limiting factor, there is ...
    • New Designs And Applications For Increased Power Recovery And Improved Reliability In FCC Expanders. 
      Carbonetto, Ben; Hoch, Greg (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2002)
      Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) hot gas expanders were developed in the early 1960s and were improved in the early 1980s with updates in airfoil technology. Since then, units designed for pressure ratios of approximately ...
