    摘要: An improvement for a turbine generator or pump having main bearings separated by a span of shaft and a thrust equalizing mechanism adjacent one of said main bearings, the improvement comprising a stationary length compensator interposed between the thrust equalizing mechanism and its adjacent main bearing to reduce the span between said main bearings. Preferably the length compensator is composed of material that shrinks less than the shaft of the generator, and the height of the length compensator, i.e., the compensating dimension, is selected according to desired thrust equalizing mechanism operating parameters over a temperature range.

    摘要: An inducer assembly comprising at least two sets of rotating and non-rotating helical inducer vanes. As the fluid enters the inducer, the fluid moves up through a first set of rotating vanes, and gains rotational momentum. The fluid then enters a second set of non-rotating vanes that use the rotational momentum of the fluid to progress the fluid forward while removing the rotation and consequently decreasing the net positive suction head required. The inducer is positioned at the inlet of a cryogenic centrifugal pump. Embodiments of the cryogenic centrifugal pump use a vertical rotational axis and include a thrust equalizing mechanism device to balance hydraulic thrust.
