By Damon Good, Business Development Manager – Mobile Water Services ANZ, Veolia Water Technologies Water is a critical component of many manufacturing processes and the demand for it is increasing alongside population and industry growth. So, what can manufacturers do if critical water treatment systems fail? Imagine this scenario: It’s Sunday morning and the water […]

Engineering gas and steam piping systems within power generation facilities is a tough job. Balancing cost, effectiveness, and safety while anticipating changes to design requirements takes a lot of work. Analyzing the gas dynamics of a piping system often occurs exclusively at steady-state, but transient deviations from steady-state should face similar scrutiny in the design […]

Mechanical Dynamics & Analysis (MD&A) announces Portable In-Situ Air Flow Test stand capabilities that allow for immediate and conclusive data on gas turbine nozzle performance. This flow test apparatus provides efficient gas turbine air/gas flow analysis and is offered by MD&A Fuel Nozzle Services Division/ Integrated Combustion Solutions (ICS). The typical call to action is a control room combustion […]

Mechanical Dynamics & Analysis (MD&A) recently completed an overhaul at a combined cycle plant consisting of gas and steam turbine majors, a steam turbine generator minor inspection, and a gas turbine generator major inspection. The customer combined scope was the largest single project implemented at the site since the combined cycle plant was commissioned. MD&A sent all 3 rotors from […]

Mechanical Dynamics & Analysis’ Control Systems Division (MD&A Control Systems) replaced an industrial co-gen turbine’s original mechanical-hydraulic (MHC) controls with an electronic governor, electro-hydraulic trip system and self-contained control valve actuator. The primary drivers for the project were the operator’s desire to increase the long-term maintainability and reliability by replacing the MHC components that had […]

Learn how this material choice can help municipalities prepare for extreme weather and other challenging conditions. According to the Center for Climate and Energy Solutions (C2ES), tropical storms have become more common in North America since around 2000. Frequency and intensity vary from basin to basin. In the North Atlantic Basin, the long-term (1966-2009) average […]
