Rotating Equipment
All you need to know about centrifugal pumps, Part 1
Understand these factors for reliable, optimal operation
Computational fluid dynamics: a key analytical tool
The potential for process improvements using these methods is not yet fully realized
Avoid control valve application problems with physics-based models
Kinetic energy criteria have many limitations
Consider precast polymer concrete pump foundations
Features include faster installation, improved corrosion resistance and lower vibration levels
Magnetic-drive pumps: technology and new applications
Developments in bearings, containment shells, magnets and cooling techniques improve reliability
Optimize gas turbine-driven centrifugal compressors
'Designed engineering' increases output by 100 - 500 kW
Easy way to estimate realistic control valve pressure drops
Use this method to ensure proper operation and minimize operating costs
Consider variable-speed, motor-driven compressors in refrigeration units
Depending upon ambient conditions and electricity prices, operating savings can justify the additional cost
Standardizing emerging metering and electronics technologies
Use these guidelines for testing and analyzing new technologies for custody transfer applications
Analyzing gear failures
