Improving Unit Operations-Test Station Performance
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1995-04)
This program's basic concept deals with the possibilities for reducing energy efficiency through four key elements. These elements are pounds per square inch (psi), gallons per minutes (gpm), revolutions per minutes (rpm) ...
Energy Analysis and Diagnostics: A Computer Based Tool for Industrial Self Assessment
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1995-04)
The United States has a high per capita consumption of energy when compared with other countries in the world. In order to remain competitive in the "global marketplace", US manufacturing must extract the highest percentage ...
Cooling Towers Make Money
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1995-04)
Question:-Why is the low bidder system a sacred cow? If contractors understand, by specifications, that the second low bidder will be awarded the contract all bidders will do their best to provide 100% performing equipment. ...

Dry Running Tests Utilizing Silicon Carbide Bearings And Polymer Lubricating Strips With Conductive And Nonconductive Containment Shells In An ANSI Magnetic Drive Pump
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1995)
As users continue to turn to sealless pumps to solve their leakage (emission) problems they are demanding robust designs that are more tolerant of system upsets and have the ability to survive short periods of dry running. ...
Understand Progressing Cavity Pumps Characteristics And A Void Abrasive Wear
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1995)
Progressing cavity pumps develop their pumping action by the meshing of the external threads of the elastomer stator and the internal threads of the metallic rotor. The special geometry, as characterized by the different ...

(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1995)
The Road To Reliable Pumps
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1995)
Centrifugal Pumps Inspection And Testing
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1995)
The general requirements for inspection and testing of centrifugal pumps are presented. The successful completion of inspection and testing verifies pump design and specification compliance prior to release of pump for ...
Shaft Alignment
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1995)
Proper alignment of rotating equipment has long been recognized as a prerequisite to safe, reliable operation. Achieving proper alignment, however, involves much more than merely adjusting the machines so that the shafts ...
