Field Performance Testing Of Gas Turbine Driven Compressor Sets.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1999)
Field testing of gas turbine compressor packages requires the accurate determination of efficiency, flow, head, power, and fuel flow in sometimes less than ideal working environments. Nonetheless, field test results have ...
Sources And Remedies Of High-Frequency Piping Vibration And Noise.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1999)
In large diameter piping, high-frequency energy can produce excessive noise and vibration, and failures of thermowells, instrumentation, and attached small-bore piping. In severe cases, the pipe itself can fracture. Perhaps ...
Basics Of Operation And Application Of Oil Flooded Rotary Screw Compressors.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1999)
Rotary screw compressors are widely used today in chemical and petrochemical refining, gas processing, and in the oil patch. Common applications include refrigeration using hydrocarbons, hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), and ...
Practical Methods For Field Performance Testing Centrifugal Compressors.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1999)
Detailed performance analysis of centrifugal compressors in the field essential to evaluate their existing condition. The current performance of a compressor can also be a valuable tool in evaluating its reliability. A ...
High Temperature Coatings For Industrial Gas Turbine Users.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1999)
High temperature coatings are used for protecting the high temperature turbine components from environmental attack due to
oxidation and hot corrosion. These coatings have developed from simple aluminide coatings to complex ...
Steam Turbine Governing Systems And Electronic Governor Retrofit.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1999)
Steam turbine retrofitted governing systems are being designed with today’s technology to operate a turbine in a safe and reliable manner. The design is completed with an extreme amount of effort being concentrated in the ...
