(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1982)High speed turbomachinery plays a critical role in today's petrochemical industry. There are very high penalty costs associated with nonavailability and catastrophic failure of critical unspared trains. Additionally the ...
-
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1992)Traditionally, the hydraulic design of impellers has been more of an empirical art than a well-defined engineering science. Because of the empiricism, new designs have been disappointing at times. Discussed here is a “new” ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2003)Magnetic bearings continue to be successfully applied throughout industry. As the population of machines using magnetic bearings grows, so does the interest in the appropriate predictive and preventive maintenance (PPM) ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2009-11)An energy efficiency metric for residential homes was developed to provide home-owners, realtors and builders a method to rate the energy efficiency of an existing house. To accomplish this, a web-based calculator was ...

(Energy Systems Laboratory, 2008-12)
-
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1979)This paper discusses some of the latest design concepts and materials currently being utilized in the design and manufacture of noise control equipment for gas turbine engines. Some related areas which are also discussed ...
-
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1984)The designer of the centrifugal pump impellers requires knowledge of the velocity flow field entering the impeller for several reasons. These include an assurance that a reasonably uniform field exists, that the leading ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)Expensive fan wrecks and down time occurs when couplings break or gearboxes self-destruct. A viable alternative eliminates shaft, coupling, and gearbox moving motor to ground level, driving a hydraulic pump transmitting ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)The required temperature and technique for condensing common industrial solvents from the exhaust air of drying ovens is explained. The benefits of the Air Cycle for this application are discussed. The operation of the ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1989-09)Congress is currently debating various options for a new clean air bill. Whatever the outcome, significant social and economic changes are sure to result. Texas will be affected to one degree or another. These effects must ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1996-04)The U.S. EPA is developing new maximum achievable control technology (MACT) rules, which include provisions for aboveground storage tanks (AST's). While each industry category will have its own MACT rule, the trend for ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory, 2008-12)Air-side economizer is broadly adopted in building HVAC design and operations. When the system is properly designed and the control sequence is properly implemented, air-side economizer provides significant energy savings. ...

-
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1980)This paper covers one of seven techniques in alignment being presented at an alignment tutorium at Texas A&M University’s Ninth Turbomachinery Symposium. The specific procedure will be covered only, without delving into ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1990-06)Cooling in industrial facilities has traditionally been performed by mechanical vapor compression units. While it remains the standard, recent concerns with the rising cost of electricity and environmental legislation ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-04)Before the year 2000, more than one quarter of U.S. businesses will be firing Alternate Fuels in their boiler systems. And, the trend toward using Process Gases, Flammable Liquids, and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC's), ...
