A Practical Guide to Compressor Technology
A Complete overview of theory, selection, design, operation, and
maintenanceThis text offers a thorough overview of the operating
characteristics, efficiencies, design features, troubleshooting, and
maintenance of dynamic and positive displacement process gas
compressors.
The author examines a wide spectrum of compressors used in
heavy process industries, with an emphasis on improving reliability and
avoiding failure. Readers learn both the theory underlying compressors
as well as the myriad day-to-day practical issues and challenges that
chemical engineers and plant operation personnel must address.The text
features:Latest design and manufacturing details of dynamic and positive
displacement process gas compressorsExamination of the full range of
machines available for the heavy process industriesThorough presentation
of the arrangements, material composition, and basic laws governing the
design of all important process gas compressorsGuidance on selecting
optimum compressor configurations, controls, components, and auxiliaries
to maximize reliabilityMonitoring and performance analysis for optimal
machinery conditionSystematic methods to avoid failure through the
application of field-tested reliability enhancement conceptsFluid
instability and externally pressurized bearingsReliability-driven asset
management strategies for compressorsUpstream separator and filter
issuesThe text’s structure is carefully designed to build knowledge and
skills by starting with key principles and then moving to more advanced
material. Hundreds of photos depicting various types of compressors,
components, and processes are provided throughout.Compressors often
represent a multi-million dollar investment for such applications as
petrochemical processing and refining, refrigeration, pipeline
transport, and turbochargers and superchargers for internal combustion
engines. This text enables the broad range of engineers and plant
managers who work with these compressors to make the most of the
investment by leading them to the best decisions for selecting,
operating, upgrading, maintaining, and troubleshooting.
