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, ...
