Practical Root Cause Analysis Of Connecting Rod Bushing Failures In A New Reciprocating Compressor And The Theory Behind The Failure Mechanism.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2009)
Tilting Pad Journal Bearing Starvation Effects
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2008)
Improved turbomachinery aerodynamic performance requirements have increased journal bearing operating speeds and loads well above traditionally acceptable values. For example, for high performance gearboxes, pinion bearing ...
The Synchronous Rotor Instability Phenomenon (Morton Effect)
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2008)
This paper gives an overview on the "Morton Effect" and explains how synchronous rotor instability, due to nonuniform heating of bearing journals, can occur in high-speed turbomachinery. Theoretical investigation by Keogh ...
A Det Norske Veritas Modeled Qualification Process for a Turbocompressor Incorporating a Rotary Separator Known as the Integrated Compression System
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2008)
The Det Norske Veritas (DNV) Technology Qualification Process requires several steps to be completed before new technology can be qualified for service based on proven experience. This paper will present a brief overview ...
Advisory Committee / Turbomachinery Symposium (36th : 2007)
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2007)
Gas Turbine Performance.
(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 ...
Synchronous Thermal Instability Prediction For Overhung Rotors.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2003)
Rotor thermal bending is a complicated phenomenon that can lead to unstable spiral vibrations. This phenomenon is primarily due to a temperature difference developing across the journal. The temperature difference can ...
Advisory Committee for the Proceedings of the 32nd Turbomachinery Symposium

Short Courses for the Proceedings of the 32nd Turbomachinery Symposium
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2003)
The Use Of Integrally Geared Compressors Based On Two Industrial Gas Companies' Experience.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2003)
The industrial gas industry has been using integrally geared compressors for over 35 years. This industry has the most experience in the design aspects, the commissioning, and the operation of this style compressor. With ...
