A Practical Approach To Understanding Steels, Their Alloying, Heat Treatment And Surface Hardening.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1985)
The greatest tonnage of engineering materials used in the world are steels. Therefore, it is most helpful, and in many cases mandatory, that those who either design, fabricate or maintain components constructed of steel ...
Subsynchronous Vibration Problems In High-Speed, Multistage Centrifugal Pumps.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1985)
Subsynchronous vibration problems were experienced on two reactor charge pumps during on-site commissioning, which led to large whirl amplitudes, making the units automatically trip. A number of possible mechanisms of ...
Review Of Fundamental Two Pole Induction Motor Mechanics.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1985)
An introduction to two pole motor mechanics is presented, with the goal of promoting an understanding of normal and abnormal vibration sources to assist in the diagnosis of the field problems of such motors. Motor force ...
Table of Contents for the Proceedings of the 14th Turbomachinery Symposium
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1985)
Failure Of Turbomachinery Components.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1985)
The analysis of turbomachinery failures is a highly specialized field requiring a detailed understanding of superalloy metallurgy, moderate and high temperature failure mechanisms and an appreciation of the stresses, ...
Rotordynamic Stability - A Simplified Approach.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1985)
Straightforward mechanics are used to give a physical understanding of the important parameters involved in rotor dynamic instability. A concise analysis procedure is proposed for assembling available information into a ...
Storage Preservation Of Machinery.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1985)
Storage preservation of machinery makes economic sense fur as yet uncommissioned as well as temporarily deactivated ("mothballed") machinery. Storage preservation herein is divided into three main elements: turbomachinery ...
Wind Energy: Applying New Technology to an Old Idea
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1985)
Wind energy has been used by man since the first ships sailed the Mediterranean Sea more than four thousand years ago. In the last two thousand years, wind has been used as a motive force to pump water for the cultivation ...
