Visualization Study Of The Performance Breakdown In The Two-Phase Performance Of An Electrical Submersible Pump
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M University, 2010)
Barrios (2007) conducted an experimental work in which was demonstrated that the two-phase stage performance of an electrical submersible pump (ESP) is related to the impeller gas and liquid flow pattern as mentioned by ...
Mechanical Seal Performance And Related Calculations
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M University, 2010)
A short collection of mechanical seal performance calculations has always been included in the earlier and current editions of the seal standard API 682 and the co-branded version of ISO 21049. The new draft of the Fourth ...
Upstream Pumping Technology In Centrifugal Pump Mechanical Sealing Applications—Field Experience With High Duty Seawater Injection Pumps
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M University, 2010)
Among the technologies developed for oil and gas production centrifugal pump sealing applications, active lift technology is one of the most promising. The reliability of any centrifugal pump in a critical application is ...
Risk-Based Pump Seal Selection Guideline Complementing ISO 21049/API 682
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M University, 2010)
The API 682 (2004) seal “Arrangement” selection logic is a questionnaire posing question about customer experience, local regulations and seal leakages requiring a vendor, customer iterative dialogue. The proposed selection ...
