The Turbomachinery Laboratory, part of The Texas A&M System,
conducts theoretical and applied research intro reliability and
performance of turbomachinery. The Turbo Lab impacts the industry
through three pathways: 1) Research: The Turbomachinery Research
Consortium was formed in 1983 to find answers to important
questions of reliability and performance of turbomachinery for
industrial companies who supply annual research grants. 2)
Education: The Turbo Lab produces engineers ready to work by
offering undergraduate and graduate engineering education. 3)
Professional Workforce Development: The Turbo Lab organizes the
annual Turbomachinery & Pump Symposia in Houston and the biennial
Asia Turbomachinery & Pump Symposium in Malaysia.
