Rotating machinery energetic efficiency

ENMTE-EN-P

Who should attend?

  • That course explains how to save/recover energy during a rotating machine operation.
Public :
  • Engineers and technicians from industrial plants.

Level :Skilled

Prerequisite :
  • 1 month of experience in the relevant topics.

Course Content

  • MACHINE OPERATION AT NORMAL POINT - Duration : 2 Days

      • Definitions: rated point, normal point, BEP.
      • Economic interest in operating within the recommended flow range: acceptable efficiency, impact on machine availability and the whole plant efficiency.
      • Typical flow ranges and efficiencies of pumps, compressors, steam and gas turbines, electrical motors.
      • Maintenance impact on machine efficiency.
      • Case study: pump operation improvement.
      • Case studies with dynamic simulators: Reciprocating and centrifugal compressor operation improvements
  • ENERGY RECOVERY - Duration : 1 Day

      • Turbines: thermal integration and steam generation: practical examples, cogeneration, and combined cycles.
      • Use of expanders to recover energy.
  • CONSUMPTIONS OPTIMIZATION DURING DESIGN AND SELECTION - Duration : 1 Day

      • Machine selection according to operating conditions.
      • Use of new technologies : coatings and materials, oil-free auxiliaries, online monitoring and predictive maintenance.
