Honeycomb Seal Effect on Rotor Response to Unbalance
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
High pressure centrifugal compressors are often equipped with honeycomb seal on balance drum in order to optimize rotordynamic stability. In very high pressures applications (>200 bar) the direct stiffness and damping of ...

Optimization of Swirl Brake Design and Assessment of Its Stabilizing Effect on Compressor Rotordynamic Performance
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
The rotordynamic stability of high pressure compressors is strongly affected by the aerodynamic effects induced by the gas flow through rotor-stator seals. In particular the tangential velocity (swirl) of the gas flowing ...
