    • Case Histories Of Specialized Turbomachinery Problems 
      Wachel, J. C.; Von Nimitz, Walter; Szenasi, F. R. (Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1973)
      Vibration problems in turbomachinery occur due to many factors. Some of the problems could have been prevented if more detailed design analyses were performed. Other times the problems occur due to design extrapolations ...
    • Improved Reliability Through The Use Of Design Audits. 
      Wachel, J. C.; Atkins, Kenneth E.; Tison, James D. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1995)
      Rotordynamic design audits of machinery and systems can be used to identify potential problems before manufacture, thus preventing costly project delays and downtime. Machinery engineers need to understand the types of ...
    • Pulsations In Liquid Pumps And Piping Systems 
      Sparks, Cecil R.; Wachel, J. C. (Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1976)
      The existence of high intensity, low frequency pulsation problems in centrifugal compressor and pump piping systems has now been well documented throughout industry. Strong pulsations have been observed at frequencies ...
    • Vibrations In Reciprocating Machinery And Piping Systems. 
      Wachel, J. C.; Tison, J. D. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1994)
      A wide variety of vibration and failure problems occur in reciprocating machinery and piping systems. Excessive piping vibration problems usually occur when a mechanical natural frequency of the piping system or compressor ...
