Cold And Hot Alignment Techniques Of Turbomachinery
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1973)
The first five years of vibration analysis work on turbomachinery indicated that 60% of the problems encountered were a result of casing-to-casing misalignment.
On-Stream Cleaning Of Turbomachinery
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1973)
On-stream cleaning is regularly practiced on the axial compressors of gas turbines and on steam turbines. Many other turbo machines could be cleaned in service. In fact, the limiting factor is not the machine type, but the ...
Conversion Of A Single-Shaft Turboprop Engine To A Two-Shaft Industrial Turbine
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1973)
Critical Areas In Centrifugal Compressors
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1973)
In recent years mechanical equipment has seen extensive uprating in the form of higher speeds, pressures, temperatures and power levels. The advance in the equipment has reflected itself in making economically feasible ...
Industrial Applications Of Aircraft-Derivative Gas Turbines
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1973)
The aircraft-derivative gas turbine as a stationary ground-based prime mover has achieved a spectacular record in its short history of 13 years. During October 1960, in a remote Kentucky gas compressor station located on ...
Case Histories Of Specialized Turbomachinery Problems
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1973)
Vibration problems in turbomachinery occur due to many factors. Some of the problems could have been prevented if more detailed design analyses were performed. Other times the problems occur due to design extrapolations ...
