A new advance in vibration monitoring, developed with EPRI, facilitates the measurement of torsional vibration and is expected to be of significant value to power plants relying on a wide range of ...

Rotor dynamics and vibration analysis encompass the study of the behaviour of rotating machinery subjected to various excitations and uncertainties. This field, which lies at the intersection of ...

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 ...

Power generation plants throughout the world rely on critical process fans for operation. But what happens when a fan rotor, with a wheel rotating at a peripheral speed of 450 miles per hour (mph), ...

High vibration is a common problem for motors installed on top of vertical pumps. Its source can stem from a mechanical issue with the pump, motor, or coupling — or even hydraulic forces from the pump ...

Precision line shafts transmit torque across longer distances while maintaining mechanical synchronization. Here we review their basics, as well as speed considerations. Line shafts span long ...

The inaugural Data Center POWER eXchange brought the data center power ecosystem together in Denver for a focused, one-day summit on the infrastructure shaping the future of digital growth. From site ...
