The Fundamentals Of Ac Electric Induction Motor Design And Application
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2003)
The conversion of electrical energy into mechanical energy has been and continues to be a dominant form of power transmission for industrial purposes. The alternating current (AC) electric induction motor has been an ...
Thunder Horse Injection Pump
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2003)
For the “Thunder Horse” oil field, injection pressures above 550 bar (8000 psi) are required. The highest injection pressures realized up to now with centrifugal pumps were around 350 bar (5100 psi). To minimize to ...
Cavitation Study In A High Pressure Water Injection Pump
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2003)
High energy pumps often operate at high speeds to achieve compact designs with few stages. These pumps need special attention on cavitation performance because the cavitation erosion rate is related to impeller speed. This ...
First Operating Experiences With The Integration Of Split Sealing Constraints To A Gas Seal Challenge
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2003)
Split mechanical sealing technology has lagged nonsplit seal applications because of the many difficulties introduced by the requirement of assembling separate parts to a high degree of precision in the field. It has at ...
Application Of Monte Carlo Simulations To System Reliability Analysis
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2003)
Monte Carlo analysis is a powerful tool for modeling the reliability of systems. Proper application of this tool requires an understanding of its underlying principles. In this paper, Monte Carlo analysis is explained at ...
