Axial Compressor Deterioration Caused by Saltwater Ingestion
TL;DR: In this article, the axial compressor of a General Electric J85-13 jet engine was degraded by spraying atomized droplets of saltwater into the engine intake, and the results of laboratory analysis of the salt deposits are presented, providing insight into the increased surface roughness and the deposit thickness and distribution.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
The Impact of Surface Roughness on Axial Compressor Performance Deterioration
Elisabet Syverud,Lars E. Bakken +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the fundamental mechanisms of axial compressor performance deterioration and recovery through online washing were determined and the importance of applying Reynolds corrections to deteriorated compressors was discussed. But the success of online washing depends on site-specific issues, and current systems are inconsistent in use and their effectiveness is difficult to test.

Wet Gas Performance of a Single Stage Centrifugal Compressor
TL;DR: In this article, the performance of a single stage gas centrifugal compressor tested on wet gas was evaluated at design operating range with real hydrocarbon mixtures, with alternation in suction pressure.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Prospects for Sub Sea Wet Gas Compression
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a full load and pressure test of a 2.8 MW single-stage compressor with a mixture of hydrocarbon gas and condensate or water.
