RISCavitating Flow Suppression for a Two-Phase Liquefied Natural Gas Expander Through Collaborative Fine-Turning Design Optimization of Impeller and Exducer Geometric Shape
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Cryogenic liquid turbine expanders have been increasingly used in liquefied natural gas (LNG) production plants to save energy. However, high-pressure LNG commonly needs to be throttled to or near a two-phase state, which ...
Investigating the Influence of Impeller Axial Thrust Balance Holes on the Flow and Overall Performance of a Cryogenic Liquid Turbine Expander
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An excessive rotor axial thrust in any turbomachine can cause critical operational problems, and rotor axial thrust balancing has always attracted much attention. The present numerical study is focused on axial thrust ...
