(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2013)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 ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2001)With privatization and intense competition in the utility and petrochemical industry, there is a strong incentive for gas turbine operators to minimize and control performance deterioration, as this directly affect ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2005)Industrial gas turbines show performance characteristics that distinctly depend on ambient and operating conditions. They are not only influenced by site elevation, ambient temperature, and relative humidity, but also by ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1999)Gas turbine output is a strong function of the ambient air temperature with power output dropping by 0.3 percent to 0.5 percent for every 1 F rise in ambient temperature. While this characteristic is inherent in any gas ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2007)Proper maintenance and operating practices can significantly affect the level of performance degradation and thus time between repairs or overhauls of a gas turbine. Proactive condition monitoring will allow the gas turbine ...

-
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1974)The advent of jet propulsion as a form of prime mover during World War II spearheaded a tremendous surge in gas turbine technology which continues unabated today. As each new specification is issued for a gas turbine, the ...
-
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)This tutorial elaborates on the various gas turbine auxiliary systems; for mechanical drive applications in oil and gas projects, from an EPC contractor perspective. The tutorial briefly introduces the basics of gas turbines ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2007)The international liquefied natural gas (LNG) trade is expanding rapidly. Projects are being proposed worldwide to meet the industry forecasted growth rate of 12 percent by the end of the decade. LNG train designs in the ...

-
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1986)The head capacity characteristics of three different submersible centrifugal pumps were correlated as a function of the gas-to-liquid ratio and pressure at the pump suction. The experimental data were from two independent ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2010)Bull gears slippage in speed multiplier of compressor trains occurred on two FPSOs offshore Brazil. These events produced high impact on the amount of flared gas and also in oil production. After being called, the supplier ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1992)Gear couplings can produce large static forces and moments that can affect the vibrations of turbomachinery, even with nearly perfect alignment. Research, testing and case histories have verified this theory and are reported. ...
