(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
Discussion Group 04: Lubrication
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
Discussion Group P06: Mechanical Seals
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
Mechanical seals are the most common method of sealing industrial centrifugal pumps and other rotary equipment. Although the basic concepts of a seal is simple, successfully using seals requires an understanding of the ...
The Measured Impact Of Erosion On The Rotodynamic And Performance Characteristics Of A Mixed Flow ESP
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
Three stages of a mixed flow electric submersible pump were subjected to 117 hours of erosion using a 2 gram/liter concentration ratio of 100 mesh hydraulic fracture sand to water. The sand passed through the pump one time ...
Increase Cooling Water System Capacity Without Introducing Problems And Maintenance
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
Increasing the capacity of a cooling water system requires more than just upgrading the cooling water pumps. The intake system needs to be evaluated as well to ensure it is capable of handling the upgraded pumps without ...
