Using Finite Element Analysis (Fea) To Estimate Reed Frequency Of Vertical Motors For Pump Applications
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
Vertical motor/pump systems that run close to the motor reed frequency may experience significantly high vibration levels, which can damage the motor as well as the entire pump system. These damages can result in costly ...
The Influence of Impeller Wear Ring Geometry on Suction Performance
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
Wear rings are a necessary feature of an enclosed centrifugal impeller design. The purpose of the wear ring is to limit the leakage of fluid from the high pressure zone at the impeller outlet to the low pressure region at ...
Feasibility study on the use of side channel pumps for low viscosity fluids, with fracking or other hydrocarbon processing applications
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
Side channel pumps typically are used in applications with low specific speed. The ratio of the low flow and high head tends to result in this niche product, located in between the classical displacement and centrifugal ...
The Application Of Ultrasonic Technology To Improve The Reliability Of Magnetic-Drive Centrifugal Pumps
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
It is widely acknowledged that sealless magnetic drive pumps give total containment of the pumped process liquid, which in an industry where there are ever tightening environmental constraints on plant operation and ...
High Pressure, High Temperature Shaft Seal For A Multiphase Subsea Pump
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
The paper describes a totally re-engineered mechanical seal for multiphase subsea pumps with a focus on extended metal and seal face material selection as well as more stable seal behavior, achieved with a new face concept, ...
