Axial Compressor Deterioration Caused By Saltwater Ingestion
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2006)
Gas turbine performance deterioration can be a major economic factor. An example is within offshore installations where a degradation of gas turbine performance can mean a reduction of oil and gas production. This paper ...
Tuning Your Fuel Gas Delivery System
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2006)
Saudi Aramco has focused more attention in recent years on fuel gas conditioning for land-based industrial and aeroderivative combustion gas turbines CGTs. Hydrocarbon dew points and entrained solids are two important fuel ...
Online Water Wash Tests Of GE J85-13
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2006)
This paper reports the results of a series of online water wash tests of a GE J85-13 jet engine at the test facilities of the Royal Norwegian Air force. The engine performance was deteriorated by injecting atomized saltwater ...
Radar-Based Sensors - A New Technology For Real-Time, Direct Temperature Monitoring Of Crank And Crosshead Bearings Of Diesels And Hazardous Media Reciprocating Compressors.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2006)
Surveys aiming to isolate the main causes of severe damage of large machines such as reciprocating compressors and diesel engines clearly indicate the need for a reliable method to perform real-time monitoring of the ...
An Impeller Dynamic Risk Assessment Toolkit.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2006)
A standardized and cost-effective risk assessment toolkit is described in this paper to comprehensively analyze centrifugal compressor impellers under steady and dynamic loads. The first step in this process occurs in the ...
