    • Effects Of High Pressure Oil Seals On The Rotordynamics Response Of Centrifugal Compressores. 
      Cerwinske, Thomas J.; Nelson, W. Ed; Salamone, Dana J. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1986)
      The influence of high pressure bushing-type oil seals on the rotordynamic characteristics of a centrifugal gas compressor, which compresses hydrogen from 1700 psi to 1800 psi is discussed. The compressor rotor is driven ...
    • Maintenance And Troubleshooting Of Single-Stage Centrifugal Pumps 
      Nelson, W. Ed (Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1984)
      A centrifugal pump’s hydraulic performance and reliability can differ drastically from its published performance expectations. The cause of the discrepancy may involve the hydraulic features of the pump. NPSH (net positive ...
    • Pump Vibration Analysis For The Amateur 
      Nelson, W. Ed (Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1987)
      Maintenance is the art of prolonging or restoring the useful operating condition of a piece of equipment. Many engineers consider maintenance to be based on industrial mythology or folklore and as a result engineering ...
