The Investigation Of Suitability Of Abradable Seal Materials For Application In Centrifugal Compressors And Steam Turbines.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1991)
Clearances between sealing devices of rotating and stationary components of turbomachinery have always been important to engineers in controlling gas leakages. One way of accomplishing this is by the use of abradable seals ...
Compressor Seals For Hydrogen Recycle Service.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2002)
Hydrogen recycle service has presented a special challenge for centrifugal compressors and particularly the casing seals. Typical problems include the presence of liquids (condensables and water), hydrogen sulfide, chlorides, ...
Investigation and Analysis of High Thrust Bearing Temperature After Field Overhaul and Rerate of a Centrifugal Compressor
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
A centrifugal compressor in olefins plant charge gas service experienced excessive thrust bearing temperatures after startup following a field overhaul and rerate. While the machine was online, an analytical study was ...
Compressor Seal Selection And Justification.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2003)
The sealing of rotating equipment has always presented a special challenge for rotating equipment manufacturers and end users. Shaft seals are provided to restrict or prevent the escape of process or sealing fluids to ...
