Development and Field testing of Strain Gauge Based Torque measurement system for Oil Pipeline Pump Application
Abstract
As part of a PRCI (Pipeline Research Council International) project that involved developing a field testing procedure for large oil pipeline pumps, this case study focuses on the development of a system to precisely measure power at the pump shaft which paramount to the accurate estimation of the pump-motor performance. The conclusion of the case study details the lessons learned, future test plans on alternate motor-pump configurations, and the implications of transient torsional vibration on machinery health for these applications.
