Steam Turbine Water Washing
This paper discusses about the capability for full speed turbine water washing which has become an increasing requirement, especially on mechanical drive units. Although load carrying capability will be somewhat reduced, essentially the overall plant requirements are maintained. Occasions may arise when deposits form on the internal parts of steam...
Stability Analysis and Testing of a Train of Centrifugal Compressors for High Pressure Gas Injection
This paper describes the rotor dynamic stability analysis and the PTC-10 Class 1 test of a three body centrifugal compressor train for high pressure natural gas injection service. This train had a full load full pressure string test on hydrocarbon gasses to a final discharge pressure of 500 BAR (7250...
Medium-Speed Separable Compressors, an Alternative to Slow-Speed Integral Engine / Compressors for Natural Gas Transmission and Gas Storage.
This paper will review the design work that has been accomplished by Dresser-Rand Co. to develop and successfully apply modern Medium-Speed Compressors with absorbed power up to 8MW as an alternative to the slow-speed Integral Engine / Compressor. This paper will address development of the compressor, reliability, installation cost, and...
Vectra Power Turbine Design and Development
Dresser-Rand has designed and manufactured phases of the VECTRA development program. The first unit is in the test cell, and the second is being assembled with extensive instrumentation.
