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.

A Method for Calculating Labyrinth Seal Inlet Swirl Velocity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The results of numerous investigators have shown the importance of inlet swirl on the calculated dynamic stiffness and stability of labyrinth seals. These results have not included any calculation ...
Evaluation of Floating Ring Seals for Centrifugal Compressors Using the Finite Element Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The use of liquid ring type oil seals in centrifugal compressors was essential for high pressure applications dating back to the early 1960’s. The analysis of high pressure oil seals was first ...
Transient Response Technique Applied to Active Magnetic Bearing Machinery During Rotor Drop
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The active magnetic bearing (AMB) is a relatively new technology which has many advantages compared with conventional bearing design. In an AMB system, the rolling-element back-up bearings are ...
