Sorokes, James M.; Kuzdzal, Mark J. (Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station; Texas A & M University. Libraries; Texas A & M University. Libraries, 2021)There are several sources of non-synchronous forced vibration of centrifugal compressor rotors. Many of them are aerodynamic phenomena, created within the gas path of the compressor. Phenomena such as impeller stall, ...

Wilkes, Joseph J.; Decamillo, Scan M; Kuzdzal, Mark J.; Mordell, James D. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2000)This paper discusses a newly found high speed, light load hydrodynamic tilting-pad thrust bearing phenomenon was first witnessed on centrifugal compressors operating above 10,000 rpm. Testing results have shown that in ...

Moore, J. Jeffrey; Walker, Stephen T.; Kuzdzal, Mark J. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2002)Full-load, full-pressure rotordynamic stability measurements were conducted on a seven-stage, back-to-back centrifugal compressor. To validate rotordynamic predictions, the rotor was excited while operating at full load ...

Wu, Tingcheng; Kuzdzal, Mark J. (Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station; Texas A & M University. Libraries, 2022)As speed and power density increase, open (unshrouded) impellers are becoming more and more utilized in process gas compressors. Open impellers enable higher tip speeds and more aerodynamic head per stage than closed ...

Kuzdzal, Mark J.; Hustak, Jerry F. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1996)Higher speeds, longer shafts, and increased power has made squeeze film damper (SFD) bearing performance increasingly more important to control both synchronous and subsynchronous fibration in rotating machinery. SFD bearing ...
