The ethylene and propane compressors performance was validated during the component testing, and a string test was not required to mitigate the identified risks. A FLFS test for the methane string was required to validate the performance of the LM6000PF in a mechanical drive application.
28 maj 2014 · Complete Unit Test is included in API Standard 617 under the section ‘Optional Tests’. Frequently, it is called as string test. Many users stipulate full-speed, full-load mechanical running test for compressors in offshore installations, large liquefied natural gas (LNG), re-injection, and ethylene plants.
The present paper describes a new methodology to leverage Direct-On-Line Centrifugal Compressor String Test results to improve predictability of on-site pressurized start-up thanks to an enhanced dynamic simulation model.
Centrifugal compressors are carefully tested throughout the manufacturing process in order to guarantee an optimal match to their design criteria and to assure long-lasting, continuous operation. The following tests are typically carried out on components and assembled machines: • Casing: hydraulic pressure test •... Open the catalog to page 5
We describe recent successes in full load full pressure testing in the shop of compressors with hole pattern seals for applications which involve high pressure high density CO2 rich gases and the application of magnetic bearing exciters to measure the log dec vs. load, pressure and density.
This presentation provides an overview of the planning considerations, preparations, measurements, corrections, and uncertainty analysis involved with a gas turbine performance test. Refer to latest test codes for additional guidance. ASME PTC 22‐2014 Gas Turbines.
COMPRESSOR STANDARD TEST PROCEDURES. Every compressor Blackmer manufactures is subjected to a series of tests that ensure it is in optimal running condition when it leaves the factory. A summary of these tests are listed below: Mechanical Run Test with Shop Driver.
