TECHNICAL TRENDS FOR ELECTRICAL COMPRESSOR DRIVE SYSTEMS ABOVE 30,000 hp
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2021)
The presentation will give and overfiew of electrical drive technology that can be used to drive compressors in the power range above 30,000 hp. Technical trends will be discussed with a focus on variable speed drives (VFD) ...
Lessons learned solving sliding vane compressor vibration problems
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2021)
A benefit claimed for vane compressors is they do not have vibrations problems that are experienced by other positive displacement machines. This case study demonstrates high vibration and fatigue failures on a sliding ...
