Experimental Evaluation Of High Energy Pump Improvements Including Effects Of Upstream Piping
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1995)
The suction-impeller (single-suction) of a 33,500hp, four-stage barrel pump used in boiler feed service at a fossil fuel steam plant experienced operating life ranging from 6.0 to 19 months. Cavitation erosion on the suction ...
Magnetic Bearings As An Impeller Force Measurement Technique
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1995)
The technique of measuring steady loads on centrifugal pump impellers via magnetic bearings is demonstrated and shown to be reliable way of clarifying loads, which have been traditionally difficult to determine both ...
Judge The Pump Hydraulic Design Through Numbers Before You Buy
(Turbomachinery Laboratories, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1995)
A few well established hydraulic design parameters define the internal quality of an impeller design. Becoming familiar with those parameters and understanding their limits will enable pump buyers to make better pump buying ...
A Name Well Chosen

Energy Purchasing/Marketing Strategies- Energy Service Agreement
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1995-04)
The objective of this program commits both the utility companies and industrial sectors to jointly agree to energy improvement projects and rate adjustments outside the standard scope of existing utility company's standard ...
Optimizing Process Loads in Industrial Cogeneration Energy Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1995-04)
Optimum dispatch of energy supply systems can result in large savings in industrial facilities. Identifying the configuration of available equipment, and its loading to minimize total energy consumption to satisfy given ...
Cycling Losses During Screw Air Compressor Operation
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1995-04)
Air compressors use 10-13 % of a typical industrial facilities' total electricity. Because they often operate at part load, their part load efficiency significantly affects plant energy cost.
An intensive study of screw ...
