A Probabilistic Approach for Compressor Sizing and Plant Design
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2013)
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, ...
Gas Turbine Degradation
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
There is a strong incentive for gas turbine operators to minimize and control performance degradation, as this directly affects profitability. The area of gas turbine recoverable and non-recoverable performance degradation ...

Gas Turbine Packaging Options And Features
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
This tutorial provides an overview of typical packaging options for gas turbines in industrial applications. Applicable standards are discussed. The requirements for different systems, such as air filtration and fuel systems ...
Valve Performance And Life Of Reciprocating Compressors
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2012)
The operation of a reciprocating compressor is closely linked to the performance of its valves in terms of life and efficiency. Most operators report that the most significant cause of forced outages of reciprocating ...
Gas Turbine Performance And Maintenance
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2012)
Proper maintenance and operating practices can significantly affect the level of performance degradation and thus, time between repairs or overhauls of a gas turbine. Understanding of performance characteristics of gas ...
