(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)This thesis presents numerical predictions for the leakage and direct stiffness coefficients of pocket damper seals. Modifications made to earlier flow-prediction models are discussed. Leakage and static pressure measurements ...
-
(2017-12-04)Data are available for a previously tested annular seal with no swirl brakes (NSB). The NSB seal design was modified by adding slots at the inlet to produce a swirl brake (SB) seal. Tests were conducted to evaluate the ...
-
(2014-11-20)The Network-on-Chip (NoC) paradigm is now widely used to interconnect the processing elements (PEs) in a chip multiprocessor (CMP). It has been reported that the NoC consumes about a third of the total power consumption ...
-
(2012-07-16)This research compares the leakage and rotordynamic characteristics of a slanted-tooth labyrinth seal to a conventional straight-tooth labyrinth. Detailed results comparing the rotordynamic coefficients and leakage parameters ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)Analyzing circuit leakage and minimizing leakage during the standby mode of oper- ation of a circuit are important problems faced during contemporary circuit design. Analysis of the leakage profiles of an implementation ...
-
Centrifugal compressors take in large volumes of gases, some of which are toxic and extremely dangerous. To contain these gases and avoid any leakages from taking place, dry gas seals are utilized. Dry gas seals need to ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)This dissertation analyzes the basis for and magnitudes of discount factors based on the characteristics of greenhouse gas emission (GHGE) offsets that are applied to the GHGE reduction projects, concentrating on agricultural ...
-
(2014-04-01)Multiphase twin-screw pumps have become an important alternative to produce the oil and natural gas from wells. In comparison to a conventional multiphase oil production systems, a multiphase twin screw pump provides larger ...
-
(2017-11-01)This research documents the development of a 2-phase annular-seal stand (2PASS) in the Turbomachinery Laboratory at Texas A&M University to investigate the static and dynamic characteristics of annular seals operating under ...
-
(2013-07-31)Reducing secondary leakage is a common challenge in numerous machines, particularly in steam and gas turbines. Too large leakage in seals produces a substantial loss in efficiency and power delivery with an increase in ...
-
Toluene is used in the production of different materials such as, rubbers and dyes. However, it is listed as a possible carcinogen chemical and can affect the central nervous system if inhaled. In a post-pandemic recovery, ...
-
(2009-05-15)This dissertation discusses research on the leakage and rotordynamic characteristics of pocket damper seals (PDS) and see-through labyrinth seals, presents and evaluates models for labyrinth seal and PDS leakage and PDS ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)Cryogenic composites find critical application in the manufacture of fuel tanks for reusable launch vehicles due to significant reduction in overall structural weight of the tank. These fuel tanks contain ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)This thesis provides a comparison of experimental rotordynamic coefficients for laminar, smooth bushing oil seals to theoretical predictions from XLLubeGT and XLAnSeal. The experimental results come from a new test rig ...
-
(2012-07-16)This dissertation is composed of three essays, investigating two aspects of the role of agricultural sector in climate change mitigation: leakage and additionality. Leakage happens when mitigation policies reduce net GHG ...
