Separation Seal Upgrade To Overcome Repetitive Failures
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2013)
Vertically-Suspended Pumps With Water-Lubricated Rubber Bearings - Experimental Identification Of Dynamic Stiffness Coefficients
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2013)
Design and development of vertically-suspended water pumps requires good understanding of the rotor system characteristics with water-lubricated rubber bearings (WLRB). This paper presents a newly-built experimental device ...
Co2 Capture And Pumping
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2013)
Breaking The Cycle Of Pump Repairs
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2013)
Achieving lowest possible life cycle cost (LCC) and valueoptimized mean-times-between-repairs (MTBRs) are the undisputed goals of thoughtful pump users. Achieving these goals requires concentrating not only on pump hydraulics, ...
Bearing Maintenance Practices To Ensure Maximum Bearing Life
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2013)
Reliability of centrifugal pumps is heavily dependent on bearing reliability. The bearings that support the impeller shaft are complex machine components whose service life is directly affected by: Contamination (both ...
Witness Testing Of API 610 Centrifugal Pumps And API 611 Steam Turbines
