This tutorial outlines the basics of pump rotordynamics in a form that is intended to be Machinery End User friendly. Key concepts will be defined in understandable terms, and analysis and testing options will be presented ...
Barrier And Buffer Fluids Selection And Considerations For Mechanical Seals
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
The increased use of pressurized and non-pressurized dual mechanical seals has driven more installations to require the use of barrier and buffer fluids. While some end users have viewed the selection of barrier fluids as ...
Simulator To Train Operators On Newly Installed Pumping Equipment
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
New screw pumps were installed at an existing offshore oil platform that originally housed only centrifugal pumps, thus creating the need to safely train operators on the new equipment. Therefore, a training simulator was ...
