(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1989)Flexible couplings are too often thought of as a piece of hardware rather than a vital parts of power transmission systems. Virtually every user has a story about a piece of equipment with a coupling problem. Sometimes the ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2001)Hydrodynamic gas-lubricated foil bearings are ideal for machinery that operates at high speed or in extreme-temperature environments. As motors and generators run at higher speeds with more torque capacity, the need for ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1994)Some of the critical parameters in the design and application of high performance fluid film bearings are emphasized. The limitations and problems associated with high speed and highly loaded bearings will be discussed. ...
-
Application of Hydraulic Coupling Bolts (Sleeve Type) to High Cycle Loaded Reciprocating Compressor (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1994-04)The savings associated with operations optimization of power generation and cogeneration facilities are large, and readily justify the hardware and software costs required for implementation of Energy Management Optimization ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2003)Monte Carlo analysis is a powerful tool for modeling the reliability of systems. Proper application of this tool requires an understanding of its underlying principles. In this paper, Monte Carlo analysis is explained at ...
-
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2008)A new project to increase the oil produced at Khurais, Saudi Arabia, was the focus of a study to determine the optimal pipeline size and pump combination for a 90.4 mile (145.5 km) long, treated-seawater transfer line ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)This paper reviews the application of pinch technology in the identification of the most attractive retrofit prospects in typical refineries. In the first part of the paper, methodology is described to identify ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1982)Recent developments in rotor dynamics technology are providing significant improvements in the correlation between theoretical analyses and actual rotor vibration response for mechanical drive steam turbines. These ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2010)In today’s marketplace the repairs of various components especially long lead items for turbomachinery equipment are an important factor for the maintaining reliability and performance of the equipment. This paper will ...
-
(Energy System Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)In a recent survey of 108 industries in the U.S., it was found that large amounts of thermal energy at relatively low temperatures was discharged to the atmosphere through industrial effluents. For the purpose of thermally ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1973)The name of the event that has kept us all in suspense for three days is "Turbomachinery Symposium." We have been fed a wealth of interesting information on turbines and turbo compressors-mostly radial machines but also ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1984)The purpose of a flexible coupling is to transmit torque from a driver to a driven machine. It is the responsibility of the application engineer to assure that the coupling selected will transmit this torque with a minimum ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1972)Recent experiences with frequency spectrum analysis for onstream evaluation of mechanical performance are reviewed from a user's standpoint. Current practices of transducer selection and positioning, data acquisition and ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)This case study describes the successful application of state-of-the-art HVAC and building systems at a large commercial office and industrial facility. The facility's exterior envelope systems, HVAC systems, lighting ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2001-05)It has been shown that the second-law efficiency of a gas-turbine engine may be calculated in a rational and simple manner by making use of an algebraic equation giving the exergy content of turbine exhaust as a function ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)Because our production process requires large amounts of electricity and since electricity purchases are our only major variable production costs, we in the air separation industry are very sensitive to the cost of ...
-
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)It is widely acknowledged that sealless magnetic drive pumps give total containment of the pumped process liquid, which in an industry where there are ever tightening environmental constraints on plant operation and ...
-
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1993)Pumps operated with variable and higher speed electric motors provide numerous benefits such as greater range of flow and head, higher head from a single stage, valve elimination, and energy saving. To achieve these benefits, ...
