Abstract: This paper presents a method of fault diagnosis for the reciprocating air compressor valve based on the indicator diagram and the support vector machine (SVM). This paper strikes 7 invariant ...

Anyone who has benefitted from the advancements made in ultrasound testing will agree that this technology is no longer just for leak testing. It is a complimentary companion technology to vibration ...

A chiller is a machine that removes heat from a liquid via its refrigeration system most likely a vapor-compression package. This cold liquid can then be circulated through a heat exchanger to cool ...

The operation of a reciprocating compressor is closely linked to the performance of its valves, in terms of both life and efficiency. To better understand the factors that affect reciprocating ...

The reciprocating compressors (known also as “piston-type” compressors) are the best compressors for any service that the capacity is relatively low and the differential pressure is relatively high.

Reciprocating compressors are used in many applications because they can compress air or gas in a wide range of pressure ratios and flowrates. They can offer excellent operational flexibilities for ...

The award-winning StraightFlo valve from Zahroof utilizes a revolutionary design with a straight through flow path that reduces compressor power, increases throughput, extends run time, reduces ...

Abstract: Aiming at the problem that the traditional multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis (MFDFA) using the least squares method to fit the trend term is prone to overfitting and takes a long ...

Dresser-Rand has launched its new Magnum® HammerHead™ valve. Specifically designed for high molecular weight applications at both low and high compressor speeds, the new valve can be applied to all ...
