Axial compressors are critical components in aero-engines and industrial gas turbines, where blade vibration and aerodynamics are inextricably linked to performance and safety. Current research has ...

Lower-temperature refrigeration applications often experience frost on their suction lines, compressor end bell, and/or part of the compressor head. When the air’s dew point temperature is reached ...

Applying vibration modelling in gas turbines to fault monitoring of the same equipment can assist maintenance planning and extend system life. Bearings are responsible for vibratory phenomena in gas ...

André Eijk explores the compressor reliability survey from the European Forum for Reciprocating Compressors (EFRC), which reports the improvement of reliability, efficiency and integrity. The ...

Refrigeration and air conditioning compressors are vapor compressors, meaning they are designed to compress refrigerant vapor, not liquid refrigerant. Liquids cannot be compressed, which is why liquid ...

These MEMS-based sensors from AutomationDirect provide early detection of developing malfunctions in industrial equipment. The ProSense VCST series vibration sensors accurately detect vibrations of ...
