      The Six Sigma methodology, developed by Motorola in 1986, can be applied to the optimization of any process, such as the use of energy. Recently General Electric (GE), one of the pioneers in the use of Six Sigma, ...
    • Sizing Rupture Disk Vent Line Systems for High-velocity Gas Flows 
      Mutegi, Mondie K. (Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2018)
      In the chemical and petrochemical industry, vessels and pipes are protected against overpressure using safety relief devices, usually rupture disks (also called a bursting disc) or safety valves installed in a vent-line. ...
    • Sleeve Type Bearings And Their Lubrication Systems In Vertical Turbine Pumps, Mixed Flow And Axial Flow Pumps 
      Greutink, Herman A. J. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1998)
      Shafting and different sleeve type bearing systems, and the associated lubrication arrangements to support these systems in vertical diffuser type pumps, are discussed.
    • Slurry Pipeline Design For Operation With Centrifugal Pumps 
      Addie, Graeme R. (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1996)
      The following covers what the writer sees as the main considerations involved in the design of a slurry pipeline. It is broken down into sections. This section is concerned mainly with the slurry and design of the hydraulics ...
