Resolving Common Vibration Problems on Reciprocating Compressors 2009
Vibration issues are still the major cause of mechanical problems on reciprocating compressors. Based on the authors’ experiences, many problems are due to: mechanical resonance in the piping, vessels, and supports – especially on the higher speed units; the compressor operating under new conditions that were not contemplated during its initial design; skid and/or foundation designs that are not adequate to resist the dynamic forces; cracks or failure of small bore piping. Drawing on field troubleshooting cases from around the world, the short course discusses these and other vibration problems, and methods to resolve them. This session will be valuable to those engineers and technicians involved in designing new compressors, field testing, maintenance or operations. The course will cover: overview of vibration terms (resonance, pulsations, dynamic forces, skid design, API 618 design methodology); root-cause issues that create vibration problems on compressor packages; case studies illustrating the most common vibration problems. Case studies will include engine and motor-drive applications, various foundation types (gravel, concrete, piles and offshore platforms), and small vs. large compressor installations; tips for assessing vibration problems in the field, including a checklist for addressing mechanical vibration problems; suggested approach when designing new installations (or retrofitting existing sites).
