TUTORIAL: SURGE CONTROL AND DYNAMIC BEHAVIOR FOR CENTRIFUGAL GAS COMPRESSORS
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
This tutorial discusses the design and function of surge
control systems, or more precisely, surge avoidance systems
on the basis of the behavior of centrifugal compressors when
they interact with compression systems.
...
TUTORIAL: GAS TURBINE PERFORMANCE
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
The power and efficiency characteristics of a gas turbine
are the result of a complex interaction of different turbo
machines and a combustion system.
In this tutorial, we will address the basic characteristics of
each ...
Introduction to Industrial Gas Turbines
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
IMPACT OF PIPING IMPEDANCE AND ACOUSTIC CHARACTERISTICS ON CENTRIFUGAL COMPRESSOR SURGE AND OPERATING RANGE
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
The performance of a centrifugal compressor is usually defined by its head versus flow map, limited by the surge and stall regions. This map is critical to assess the operating range of a compressor for both steady state ...
A PROBABILISTIC APPROACH FOR COMPRESSOR SIZING AND PLANT DESIGN
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
Equipment sizing decisions in the Oil and Gas Industry often
have to be made based on incomplete data. Often, the exact
process conditions are based on numerous assumptions about
well performance, market conditions, ...
Discussion Group T05: Turbomachinery Operational Maintenance
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
Gas Turbine Air Filtration Systems For Offshore Applications
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
Air filtration plays a key role in achieving high availability and low maintenance cost for Gas Turbines, in particular in offshore applications. Offshore applications pose a particular challenge, since they have to provide ...
Hydrodynamic Torque Converters For Oil & Gas Compression and Pumping Applications : Basic Principles, Performance Characteristics And Applications
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
Herrmann Foettinger as an alternative to a regular speed changing gear for shipboard propulsion. At that time, mechanical reduction gears for such high power applications were not available. The core idea of hydrodynamic ...
