Optimizing Pumping Systems with Proven Engineering Assessment Processes and Methodologies
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
When pump systems are not optimized for best efficiency, they drain corporate profits with higher energy and maintenance costs, shorten mean time between repairs and increase CO2 emissions. Optimized pump systems are more ...
Differences In Piping System Design for Reciprocating and Centrifugal Pumps
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
Reciprocating pump installations require particular design considerations which are much different from centrifugal pump systems. An incomplete design basis for reciprocating pump installations can lead to costly remedial ...
