Eliminating Oil Leaks By Optimizing Bearing Case Oil Labryinths.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1998)
Many pieces of rotating equipment experience oil leaks. Any
piece of equipment with oil fed bearings, such as turbines, motors,
gearboxes, and compressors, are susceptible to oil leaks from the
bearing case seals. Usually ...
Thrust Bearing Analysis, Optimization, And Case Histories.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1996)
Babbitted oil film thrust bearings as used in industrial turbomachinery
are discussed. The majority of the presentation covers tbe
higher performance tilting pad thrust bearings as found in most
critical rotating ...
The Use Of Engineering Thermoplastics For Centrifugal Compressor Labyrinths.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1994)
The use of engineering thermoplastics is increasing rapidly in today's turbomachinery industry. The primary use of these thermoplastics has been as a material upgrade from aluminum for centrifugal compressor labyrinths. ...
The Design And Application Of A Squeeze Film Damper Bearing To A Flexible Steam Turbine Rotor.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1995)
A critical multistage steam turbine in a large chemical plant experienced high vibration levels and frequent repairs. Numerous failures occurred while passing through the rotor's first critical speed including heavy rubs. ...
