TUTORIAL: SURGE CONTROL AND DYNAMIC BEHAVIOR FOR CENTRIFUGAL GAS COMPRESSORS
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
This tutorial discusses the design and function of surge
control systems, or more precisely, surge avoidance systems
on the basis of the behavior of centrifugal compressors when
they interact with compression systems.
...
TUTORIAL: GAS TURBINE PERFORMANCE
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
The power and efficiency characteristics of a gas turbine
are the result of a complex interaction of different turbo
machines and a combustion system.
In this tutorial, we will address the basic characteristics of
each ...
IMPACT OF PIPING IMPEDANCE AND ACOUSTIC CHARACTERISTICS ON CENTRIFUGAL COMPRESSOR SURGE AND OPERATING RANGE
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
The performance of a centrifugal compressor is usually defined by its head versus flow map, limited by the surge and stall regions. This map is critical to assess the operating range of a compressor for both steady state ...
A PROBABILISTIC APPROACH FOR COMPRESSOR SIZING AND PLANT DESIGN
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2015)
Equipment sizing decisions in the Oil and Gas Industry often
have to be made based on incomplete data. Often, the exact
process conditions are based on numerous assumptions about
well performance, market conditions, ...
