On The Potential Of Metal And Ceramic Based Abradables In Turbine Seal Applications.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2007)
Abradable seals are employed in turbomachinery to reduce leakage gaps between stationary and rotating parts to improve efficiency and stall margin. Thermally sprayed abradable seals have been used in the compressor section ...
Reciprocating Compressor Condition Monitoring.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2007)
Technology for reciprocating compressor condition monitoring has been around since the 1950s. However until the last 15 years or so it seemed that only the pipeline companies spent much effort on this activity. Technology ...
Rotor Bearing Loads With Honeycomb Seals And Volute Forces In Reinjection Compressors.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2007)
The calculation for unbalance response of a rotor starts by calculating the bearing load to provide the basis for the bearing stiffness and damping characteristics. Measurements in test rigs at a major Texas university ...
Case Study: Charge Compressor Turbine Vibration - Diagnostic/Risk Assessment
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2007)
Reducing downtime and sustaining high production rates are essential for companies to remain competitive. A 36MHP steam turbine experienced sudden high vibration. Through use of vibration analysis, selective external case ...
Gas Turbines And Turbocompressors For LNG Service.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2007)
The international liquefied natural gas (LNG) trade is expanding rapidly. Projects are being proposed worldwide to meet the industry forecasted growth rate of 12 percent by the end of the decade. LNG train designs in the ...
