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.

Nonlinear Identification of Mechanical Parameters in a Squeeze Film Damper With Integral Mechanical Seal
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: End seals in squeeze film dampers (SFDs) aid to increase their damping capability while maintaining low lubricant flow rates and reducing the severity of air ingestion. This paper presents ...
Measurements of Leakage and Power Loss in a Hybrid Brush Seal
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Simplicity, low cost, and easy replacement make labyrinth seals the primary seal type in gas turbines. However, excessive leakage and potential for rotordynamic instability are well known issues. ...
Identification of Squeeze Film Damper Force Coefficients From Multiple-Frequency Noncircular Journal Motions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In rotor-bearing systems, squeeze film dampers (SFDs) provide structural isolation, reduce amplitudes of rotor response to imbalance, and in some instances, increase the system threshold speed of ...
Rotordynamic Force Coefficients of a Hybrid Brush Seal: Measurements and Predictions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Brush seals effectively control leakage in air breathing engines, albeit only applied for relatively low-pressure differentials. Hybrid brush seals (HBS) are an alternative to resolve poor reliability ...
Identification of Force Coefficients in a Squeeze Film Damper With a Mechanical End Seal—Part I: Unidirectional Load Tests
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Squeeze film dampers (SFDs) with low levels of external pressurization and poor end sealing are prone to air entrapment, thus not generating enough damping capability. Single frequency, unidirectional ...
Squeeze Film Damper With a Mechanical End Seal: Experimental Force Coefficients Derived From Circular Centered Orbits
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper presents parameter identification measurements conducted on a squeeze film damper (SFD) featuring a nonrotating mechanical seal that effectively eliminates lubricant side leakage. The ...
Identification and Prediction of Force Coefficients in a Five-Pad and Four-Pad Tilting Pad Bearing for Load-on-Pad and Load-Between-Pad Configurations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the identification of the rotordynamic force coefficients for direct lubrication five-pad and four-pad tilting pad bearings. The bearing is 110 mm in diameter with a L/D of ...
A Novel Bulk-Flow Model for Improved Predictions of Force Coefficients in Grooved Oil Seals Operating Eccentrically
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Oil seals in centrifugal compressors reduce leakage of the process gas into the support bearings and ambient. Under certain operating conditions of speed and pressure, oil seals lock, becoming ...
