Machinery Piping Design
Both electro-acoustic analog and frequency domain numerical techniques are used for system simulations. These tools allow for solution of problems ranging from the determination of excitation sources, to mechanical and fluid response characterization, to the development of design modification to increase performance and reliability.

SwRI and the Gas Machinery Research Council (GMRC)
are dedicated to
improving and optimizing compressor, pump, and piping systems for the natural gas,
petrochemical, and process industries. The facility's capabilities include
simulation, analysis and design of reciprocating
and centrifugal compressors, pumps, and their associated piping and valves.
The design facility emphasizes a concurrent engineering approach consisting of a number of
integrated elements:
