Successful Application of Nitrogen Turboexpanders-Compressors to Floating and Land-Based Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) Facilities
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
LNG production in the form of large land-based Mega-trains and floating production, storage and offloading facilities (FPSOs) have been of particular interest in recent years. The task of designing and building these ...
Testing of A 10 MWE Supercritical CO2 Turbine
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
A new high temperature turbine was developed for use a sCO2 closed-loop recompression Brayton cycle. This turbine was developed for Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) applications (700+C), but its application includes traditional ...
Surge Exploration Tests and Second Quadrant Characteristic Dynamic Modeling on Full-Scale Centrifugal Compressor
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
Surge exploration tests on a full-scale centrifugal compressor have been performed allowing an evaluation of the transient behavior and the mechanical robustness of the compressor even during a critical event such as Surge. ...
Vibration Problems and Solutions in Pumps and Turbomachinery
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
This course presents analysis and testing methods for pumps and turbomachinery. Focus is on centrifugal pumps of all types, centrifugal compressors, axial compressors, fans, steam turbines and gas turbines. Rotordynamics ...
Troubleshooting of Sub-synchronous Torsional Interaction Phenomena on an Electric Motor-Driven Centrifugal Compressor
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
This case study discusses the identification, troubleshooting, and correction of a torsional instability in an electric motor-driven driveline with variable frequency drive (VFD) for a high-pressure gas compressor test ...
High Performance Coupling and Rotating Machines
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2018)
This course covers the design and application of high performance couplings and rotating machines. Initially the Turbomachinery driver and driven machines are analyzed together with their characteristics and how they affect ...
Torsional Modal Damping of a LCI Driven Geared Moto-Compressor Train: Evaluation, Optimization Criteria and Active Control
