Pump Baseplate Installation And Grouting
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1988)
Methods used by the author to level and epoxy grout pump baseplates. The methods used are not the only way pumps can be installed, but if followed, will ensure a 100 percent void free grout job. Execution of the leveling ...
Influence Of Gas Seals On Rotor Stability Of A High Speed Hydrogen Recycle Compressor.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1988)
A gas seal retrofit project for a 2800 hp, 10200 rpm, five-stage hydrogen recycle compressor is described. This barrel-type compressor operates with a 1205 psia suction pressure and 1490 psia discharge pressure. The unit ...
Safe Diagram - A Design And Reliability Tool For Turbine Blading.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1988)
The complex field of turbine blade vibration has long been in need of improved tools to help predict the reliability of blading. The SAFE interference diagram is presented as such a tool. It presents much more information ...
Vacuum Distillation Methods For Lube Oils Increase Turbomachinery Reliability.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1988)
The lube oils in self-contained reservoirs for turbomachinery in hydrocarbon processing plants are subject to contamination and deterioration from airborne dust, component debris, system corrosion, heat, and water. Oil ...
Application Of Dry Gas Seals On A High Pressur Hydrogen Recycle Compressor.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1988)
Maintenance and operation of high pressure seal oil systems on centrifugal compressors has been a major problem faced by refinery operators. This problem is intensified when sealing gases like hydrogen and mixtures of ...
Water Contamination Of Steam Turbine Lube Oils - How To Avoid It.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1988)
Ever since steam turbines have been built, contamination of the lube oil by water has been a persistent problem. Water contamination will result in rusting of ferrous components, accelerate sludging leading to sticking of ...
Incentive Rates- At What Cost?
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Thermal Stratification- A Means to Reduce Cooling Loads in High Bay Industrial Buildings
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
The air conditioning of industrial plants is often dismissed as too expensive. The authors report on 20 years of research into the feasibility of thermal stratification. The paper will report on studies of plants designed ...
Oxidative Degradation of Trichloroethylene Adsorbed on Active Carbons: Use of Microwave Energy
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Trichloroethylene (TCE) adsorbed on different
types of active carbons was exposed to a dry and
moist air stream in the presence of 2.45 GHz microwave
radiation. Active carbon beds were used
becauae they absorb microwave ...
Combustion of Cattle Manure in a Fluidized Bed Combustor
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Manure from cattle feedlots is a renewable
energy source which has the potential of
supplementing the existing fossil fuels, but
the heat content of manure is rather low.
Since, the fluidized bed combustion technology
has ...
