Abstract A crosshead slipper-guide system, which bears a significant thrust force, is an essential friction pair in low-speed marine diesel engines. Owing to the low moving speed of slipper during engine startup, it difficult form good hydrodynamic lubrication between and guide. Therefore, detailed analysis startup needed. In this study, new transient tribo-dynamic model for process presented. The consists mixed dynamic models piston assembly, connecting rod, crankshaft. performances under rated conditions were simulated compared. results show that tribo-dynamics are significantly different from those conditions. Some measures beneficial may increase loss system process.

In oil and gas exploitation, the multiphase pump is a vital piece of equipment to guarantee production with high efficiency stable operation. The complicated pattern flow in affects performance; for this reason, performance inner should be sufficiently investigated. present work, liquid-gas designed manufactured, then tested specialized test rig reveal transient pressure characteristics pump. Results show that dominant frequency under water water-air conditions blade passing frequency, which induced by rotor stator interaction. downstream impeller, fluctuation obviously weakened, because splitter-blade design could improve control ability region. comparison condition, condition greatly increases, multiples impeller rotating are stimulated due movement merging air bubbles. Finally, correlation phase distribution revealed using high-speed camera. With gradual rise from inlet outlet, relative separation two phases induce violent fluctuations.

Double-suction centrifugal pumps are widely used in industrial and agricultural applications since their flow rate is twice that of single-suction with the same impeller diameter. They usually run for longer, which makes them susceptible to cavitation, putting downstream components at risk.
