A Vision For Pump R&D Over The Next 25 Years
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2009)
Energizing research and development on pumps in today’s emerging global and environmental context is envisioned as a major feature of the pump industry in the next quarter century. The mission for how to realize this vision ...
Best Practices For Operators
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2009)
When working around equipment for a long time, it is easy to become accustomed to it working as it should. It can make us numb to potential problems, especially is they come on gradually. This tutorial will present some ...
Hybrid Pump: A New Type Of Pump For The Pazflor Deep Sea Project
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2009)
Subsea processing gives pump engineers permanent technical challenges due to the comprehensive specifications that often stretch the proven limits of technology. It is particularly true for pumps that have to boost a ...
Commissioning And Startups Of New Units (Pumps)
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2009)
Installation and startup of centrifugal pumps and drives can be a stressful time. It involves a coordinated working relationship with several crafts - foundation, contractors, pipefitters, welders, millwrights, startup ...
Power Pump Valve Dynamics
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2009)
The dynamics (movement) of the check valves in a reciprocating power pump determine whether the pump will operate quietly and smoothly, or noisily with pulsation and vibration. Although piping pulsation and vibration are, ...
Dynamic Improvement Of An Overhung Single-Stage Pump
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2009)
Vibration control is an important aspect of all pump design. It helps assure quiet operation and high reliability. Therefore, the design of pump components should avoid any dangerous resonances with excitation forces, such ...
Contemporary Guide To Mechanical Seal Leakage
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2009)
The mechanical seal is a critical component in many mature industrial processes such as flue gas desulphurization, crude oil transport and refining, electricity production, and pharmaceutical manufacturing. A “critical ...
Acoustics In Pumping Systems
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2009)
This tutorial will explain the pumping system speed of sounds concept (how to account for acoustic velocity changes due to pipe wall flexibility and liquid properties), the definition of quarter-wave, half-wave, and higher ...
