... electronic devices by using a magnetic levitation turbine generator. In this scheme, a turbine is used to convert the continuous wellbore flow into electricity and a permanent magnetic bearing is employed so that the turbine can float in the current, thus completely eliminating contact friction and allowing...

... and tensile limitations that need to be considered before choosing the position of the swivel in the liner. Figure 5a shows the tension and compression loads experienced by the swivel bearings during slack-off and pick-up. The dashed lines (in red) in the figure show the static (+/-200 klbs) and rotating...

...-scale qualification test program. Sub-component and system level tests performed to evaluate fit for purpose and reliability included: Production Valve cycle and erosion testing, bearing erosion testing, National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE) component testing, pressure testing of a wash...

... Abstract Additive Manufacturing technology for innovative tilting pad thrust bearings can combine cleaner production process and performance improvement compared to traditional design. This new solution can also fit form and function of existing components in operation, opening...

.... Compressor bearings showed high vibration levels during each shutdown event close to alarm setpoints during last year, however no one took care as it was happening only during shutdown. The unit was compressing a hazardous gas, and any failure or leak could lead to a major safety incident. Steady state data...

... Abstract Structural bearings of 47 offshore platform-link bridges with average age of 40 years were inspected and recommended for replacements due to their poor condition. Replacement of bridge bearings involves major risk and production interruptions given the structural modifications...

... Steam turbine of three casings (HP/IP, LP1 and LP2) coupled to a Synchronous Generator. Base load capacity of 660MW running at 3600RPM. All train components are coupled together using Rigid Coupling. Machine train consists of four rotors, each rotor is supported between two plain journal bearings...

... Manufacturers take these voltages into account when they design their machines. The bearing at one end of a generator is normally insulated to create an open circuit and prevent electromagnetic loop voltage (therefore special care must be taken to ensure the insulating properties are maintained...

... with hydrodymanic journal bearings are different from compressors operating with rolling element bearings. Gas compressors operating in corrosive environments easily succumb to failures such as corrosion-pitting, hydrogen-assisted fatigue and chemical attack. Some common failure modes will be defined for each type...

..., the proposed solution for the discussed chronic high temperature of feed line oil to bearing of the water injection pumps. Some small changes in the equipment design may result in a considerable impact on equipment reliability and availability where the recommended relocation of the temperature sensors...
