(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1998)Recent industrial advances in secondary containment methods have increased the role of secondary containment systems in environmental corporate strategies aimed at lowering the risks associated with leakage from primary ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2008)Rotordynamic calculations done on most turbomachinery often discount or even completely ignore the “backward” modes. In fact, many rotating equipment engineers have never observed a backward mode, leading some to doubt ...
-
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)Fixed Speed Electric Motors driving Centrifugal Compressors are designed considering the pressurized start-up as the most critical condition in terms of the torque requirement. Their capability is checked during the design ...

(Energy Systems Laboratory, 2003-05)The U.S. commitment to energy efficiency and conservation policy was emphasized in the National Energy Policy (NEP) made public in May 2001. Recommendation 14 in Chapter 4 of the NEP - "Making Energy Efficiency a National ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2004)To compete in today’s economic climate, petrochemical plants are strategizing on continuous long-term operation to reduce maintenance costs and increase productivity. This strategy has led some plants to go from eight years ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2002)Recently, synthesis gas compressor drive steam turbines have required upgrading to increase efficiency and reliability for saving both operation and maintenance costs in many ammonia plants. This paper introduces the latest ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)This paper discusses cogeneration, peak shaving, interruptible power and "on-site" generation as alternatives to purchasing traditional electrical power. Equipment used and case histories, including economics of the ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1972)This paper presents a cursory review of some of the recent work that has been done in turbine aerodynamic research at NASA-Lewis Research Center. Topics discussed include the aerodynamic effect of turbine coolant, high ...
