Experimental Study Of The Influence Of Backflow Control On Pump Hydraulic-Mechanical Interaction
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1985)
A series of right-angle pump intakes, incorporating minimum axial depths and decelerating flows, has been experimentally evaluated using an air flow test procedure. Performance was measured, internal flow fields observed ...
Control Of Backflow At The Inlets Of Centrifugal Pumps And Inducers
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1984)
Cavitation surge or the interaction of backflow from the inlet of a centrifugal pump or inducer at low flow and low NPSH can be eliminated by the use of backflow recirculator. Experimental results from four pumps demonstrate ...
Pumps - 2000 And Beyond
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2001)
MPP Short Course: Key Features of Topside and Subsea Multiphase Pumps
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
This short course targets Rotating Equipment engineers, Process engineers, and Project engineers interested in gaining a better understanding of the unique characteristics of Multiphase Pumps. The agenda is built to go ...
25 Years Of Driving Pump Technology: The Contribution Of The Pump Symposium
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2009)
Visual Studies Of Cavitation In Pumping Machinery
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1986)
The visual study of cavitation in pumping machinery now plays an important role in its development-particularly where high stage energies are concerned. The incomplete picture provided by traditional head decay tests is ...
Multiphase Gas-Liquid Pumping
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1996)
Pumping crude oil and gas without prior separation greatly reduces the machinery and platform space required. Multiphase pumps can be located at the surface or subsea and are designed primarily as a) two-screw rotary or ...
A Vision For Pump R&D Over The Next 25 Years
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2009)
Energizing research and development on pumps in today’s emerging global and environmental context is envisioned as a major feature of the pump industry in the next quarter century. The mission for how to realize this vision ...
Computational Fluid Dynamical Analysis Of Complex Internal Flows In Centrifugal Pumps
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1994)
A commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) computer code was employed to compute the flow field from 105 percent down to 21 percent of the 4525 gpm BEP flowrate of a 1785 rpm, 1500 specific speed impeller of 14,000 ...
Elimination Of Cavitation-Related Instabilities And Damage In High-Energy Pump Impellers
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1991)
The suction-stage impeller of a large crude oil pipeline pump was designed by combining quasi-three dimensional flow analysis with current theories to generate an impeller geometry, which was evaluated in a half-size model ...
