Autorenporträt

Tony Giampaolo, MSME, P.E., President of Power & Compression Systems, has over 58 years of experience in the selection, installation, commissioning, operation, and maintenance of rotating equipment and equipment controls for both on and offshore environments, and the design and installation of load sharing & surge control system for multiple compressors (reciprocating and centrifugal) operating in parallel (electric motor and gas turbine driven). He is a Registered Professional Engineer (California, Nevada, Florida, Ohio), and a graduate of The University of Connecticut (MSME) and The Catholic University of America (BME). He has authored the Gas Turbine Handbook: Principles And Practice (5th Edition), articles for Oil & Gas Journal, Diesel & Gas Turbine Worldwide, Western Energy, and Cogeneration and On-Site Power magazines. He is also a member of professional, technical, and trade organizations. He has served as Chairman of the Orange County Chapter of the California Society of Professional Engineers, and the Technical Editor (Engines-Compressors-Turbines) for Western Energy Magazine. He has lectured on "Gas Turbine Performance and Diagnostics Techniques", "Turbo-compressor Operation", and "Effective Control Techniques for Turbocompressors". As part of the California State University part-time faculty, he taught Engineering Thermodynamics and, a course on cogeneration entitled "Blueprint For Cogeneration".
