ASME ( American Society of Mechanical Engineers )
Description: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) is a professional association that, in its own words, "promotes the art, science, and practice of multidisciplinary engineering and allied sciences around the globe" via "continuing education, training and professional development, codes and standards, research, conferences and publications, government relations, and other forms of outreach." ASME is thus an engineering society, a standards organization, a research and development organization, a lobbying organization, a provider of training and education, and a nonprofit organization. Founded as an engineering society focused on mechanical engineering in North America, ASME is today multidisciplinary and global.

Surge Avoidance in Gas Compression Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The phenomenon of compressor surge and its prevention have drawn significant attention in the literature. An important aspect of surge avoidance lies in the design of the compressor station ...
Series of Parallel Arrangement in a Two-Unit Compressor Station
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper discusses how to determine the arrangement of compressors in a two-unit gas pipeline station where there is no standby unit. The compressors are driven by variable speed drivers ...
Degradation in Gas Turbine Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Any prime mover exhibits the effects of wear and tear over time. The problem of predicting the effects of wear and tear on the performance of any engine is still a matter of discussion. ...
Measurement Uncertainties Encountered During Gas Turbine Driven Compressor Field Testing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Field testing of gas turbine compressor packages requires the accurate determination of efficiency, capacity, head, power and fuel flow in sometimes less than ideal working environments. Nonetheless, ...
Fuel System Suitability Considerations for Industrial Gas Turbines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Industrial Gas Turbines allow operation with a wide variety of gaseous and liquid fuels. To determine the suitability for operation with a gas fuel system, various physical parameters of the ...
