A Perspective on the Process and Turbomachinery Design of Compressed Air Energy Storage Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present paper will describe the Baker Hughes experience in the development of the turbomachinery equipment for Hydrostor's advanced compressed air energy storage (A-CAES) system. At the core of a compressed air energy ...
Accurate Radial Vaneless Diffuser One Dimensional Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A simplified onedimensional model for the performance estimation of vaneless radial diffusers is presented. The starting point of such a model is that angular momentum losses occurring in vaneless diffusers are usually ...
Analysis of the Flow-Field Distortions Induced by Pneumatic Pressure Probes in Test Bench Experiments on Centrifugal Compressors: Are We Testing Right?
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Experimental testing at the test rig still plays a key role in the development of new centrifugal compressor designs for industrial applications. Although a wide set of different probes is used as per common practice, the ...
