Majovsky, Bill; Salamone, Dana J. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1986)A rotordynamics analysis of an 8000 hp steam turbine which drives an ethylene compressor is presented. This machine characteristically exhibited increasing vibration levels with increasing speed, in the upper portion of ...

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 ...

Monroe, Perry C.; Salamone, Dana J. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1983)This paper presents a typical field problem that most maintenance engineers in any petrochemical plant could encounter. Two 4000 hp through-drive electric motors were totally destroyed when the inboard coupling failed. ...

Davidson, Thomas R.; Salamone, Dana J.; Gunter, Edgar J. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1992)A solution is presented for a lateral rotor and bearing dynamics problem on a high pressure, double-overhung turboexpander with a design operating speed of 57,300 rpm. The rotor has an expander impeller mounted at one end ...

Salamone, Dana J. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1982)This paper presents the highlights of a complete rotor dynamics analysis and bearing optimization study that was performed on a 3800 HP multistage steam turbine. This unit is coupled to a three stage, poster-type, centrifugal ...
