    Mechanical seal vs. packing in oil pumps

    I do not know if there is a code or regulation to select between packing system and mechanical seals in oil pumps. I think the selection has to depend on pressure, viscosity and temperature. Or is it obligatory to use mechanical seals in oil applications? I have consulted API 610, 685, 682 and...

    Turbine blades shape

    In some turbochargers the turbine blades have a kind of "groove" in the external edge. It is designed for making a gas turbulence or for another function. I am curious because this "grove" does not appear in other kind of turbochargers. Thanks, jeromero

    Low compression pressure in diesel engines

    In 3200HP diesel engine we have a particular thermodynamic behavior in a particular cylinder, monitored buy a pressure sensor that relates pressure with crankshaft position and comparing with other cylinders: there are low compression pressure, low peak pressure and a big delay in peak angle. If...

    Cylinder liner fracture

    In 3200HP diesel engine we have recurrent failure of cylinder liners. They fracture in the angle between the body and the settlement zone. We think the failure is related with deformations in the settlement zone in the engine block so we will grind this surface and also the upper part of the...
