STABILITY CONSIDERATIONS: A SIMPLIFIED APPROACH
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2011)
In many cases it is necessary to judge the stability behavior
of a specific compressor. This might be the OEM checking the
feasibility of a proposed compressor layout or it might be the
user judging one of his machines ...
HIGH FLOW PROTECTION FOR VARIABLE SPEED PUMPS
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2011)
Low flow operation is a well-known cause of centrifugal pump failures and thus it is a custom to have low flow protection. On the other hand, protecting pumps from excessively high flow is usually not considered during ...
