Development and Design of Antisurge and Performance Control System for Centrifugal Compressor
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2013)
The development and design of control systems for centrifugal and axial compressors is discussed and explanations given to bring together features of control systems on varying machine designs. Potential problems resulting ...
Torsional Natural Frequencies: Measurement Vs. Prediction
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2013)
Excessive torsional vibration can cause damage or failure to rotating equipment trains thereby resulting in costly shutdowns. A comprehensive torsional vibration analysis is the typical method of designing a torsional ...
VSDS Motor Inverter Design Concept for Compressor Trains Avoiding Interharmonics in Operating Speed Range and Verification
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2013)
During operation of compressor trains by a variable speed drive system (VSDS), integer and non-integer harmonic currents are generated in the inverter. Via the electrical system of the inverter and the motor, an excitation ...
