Centrifugal Compressor Performance Enhancement Through The Use Of A Single Stage Development Rig.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1991)
Despite recent advances in computation fluid dynamics, the complex flows through centrifugal compressor components are still not totally understood. These uncertainties detract from the designer's ability to accurately ...
Use of Energy Management and Control Systems for Performance Monitoring of Retrofit Projects: Final Summary Report for USDOE Office of Conservation and Energy, Final Revision, March 1993
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1991)
Traditionally, Energy Management and Control Systems (EMCSs) have been used to control
HVAC, lighting, fire and security systems in buildings. Few EMCSs are used for long term
trending and analysis of energy use (i.e., ...
Fluid Film Bearing Fundamentals And Failure Analysis.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1991)
Fluid film bearing technology is presented in this tutorial as it applies to turbomachinery equipment. The focus here is on the practical aspects of fluid film journal bearings, as opposed to theoretical analysis. Failure ...
Procedure For Selecting And Evaluating A Special Purpose Motor.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1991)
During recent years, there has been considerable interest in motors. This interest has stemmed from what appears to be an increase in motor problems. As a result of this, along with the need for machinery reliability, ...
The Investigation Of Suitability Of Abradable Seal Materials For Application In Centrifugal Compressors And Steam Turbines.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1991)
Clearances between sealing devices of rotating and stationary components of turbomachinery have always been important to engineers in controlling gas leakages. One way of accomplishing this is by the use of abradable seals ...
Fan Laws, The User And Limits In Predicting Centrifugal Compressor Off Design Performance.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1991)
The fan laws, particularly what the limits are in their use is described. The derivation is covered very briefly. To help understand some of the fan law uses, centrifugal impeller characteristics are covered, particularly ...
Prairie View A&M University Whole Campus Energy Analysis
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1991)
Prairie View A&M University started a large scale energy management program in 1987 and 1988. This
report presents an analysis of whole-campus energy consumption at the Prairie View A&M Campus where
whole-campus indices ...
Texas LoanSTAR Monitoring and Analysis Program—Monitoring and Advisory and Review Committee (January 1991)
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1991)
Evaluating the DSM Potential for Industrial Electrotechnologies and Management Practices
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
In an effort to help
balance load requirements and generating capacity, Houston
Lighting & Power Company (HL&P)
contracted with SRI International
(SRI) to identify
existing and emerging
electrotechnologies and
management ...
New Energy Efficient Method for Cleaning Oilfield Brines with Carbon Dioxide
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
Water contaminated with hydrocarbons often
results during the production of oil. The polluted
water, which may be naturally occurring or a result
of water or steam flooding operations, must be
cleaned before disposal ...
