Evolution Of A Mechanical Seal Condition Monitoring System
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1990)
Mechanical face seals have been used in fluid handling equipment for many years, with a long history of reliability and safety. Most users of mechanical seals, however, tend to have a few critical service areas where process ...
Experimental Evaluation Of Bladder Type Pulsation Dampeners For Reciprocating Pumps
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1990)
Pulsation dampeners are frequently used to reduce piping pressure pulsations and vibrations in reciprocating pump systems. Despite their extensive use, scientific understanding of how the dampeners work and what design ...
Improving Pump Reliability In Light Hydrocarbon And Condensate Service With Metal Filled Graphite Wear Parts
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1990)
A number of single stage overhung and multistage horizontal pumps with a history of dry running seizure have been modified by replacing the metal stationary wear parts with metal filled graphite. After modification, the ...
ISO 5i99 Standard Addresses Today's Reliability Requirements For Chemical Process Pumps
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1990)
The standards used so far by European manufacturers of chemical process pumps were only dimensional: ISO 2858, BS 24256, DIN 24256, NF E 44121. The pump manufacturer had total freedom of design provided outline dimensions ...
