Effect Of Mechanical Unbalance On Vibrations, Forces And Reliability Of A Single-Stage Centrifugal Pump
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1995)
The effect of rotor mechanical unbalance on pump vibrations was tested for a typical ANSI pump. It was found that significant damping of vibrations occurs at actual (wet) operations as compared to dry run. Rotor forces and ...
Take Transient Startup And Shutdown Data - Rule Number One.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1994)
The thrust herein is to encourage more people to take transient data during startups and rundowns. The common complaint is that it takes too much time and effort to prepare for this information. That argument is "weak" ...
Retrofit, Upgrade, And Demothball Of Two Crentrifugal Compressor Trains.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1990)
The design premise in upgrading two operating plants for more compression capability is discussed.
The first is a syn gas plant designed for 1000 tons/day of methanol but converted to syn gas only for a primary acetic ...
Considerations In Hot And Cold Alignment And Couplings
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1990)
Hot and cold alignment techniques are addressed, with graphical plotting of reverse dial indicator alignment maps. An alignment program with a two sets of data for cross checking and suggested proper tooling and procedures ...
Single Plane Balancing
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1991)
Balancing rotating equipment is a form of correction for things that were either not uniform in material sciences or in assembly of components on a rotating shaft. The single plane balancing procedures are addressed, wherein ...
