materials selection for reciprocating compressor
(OP)
I have a question on the cylinders materials selection for a reciprocating compressor. It has 90 mol% Hydrogen.
Design pressure: 4600KPa
Design temperature: 90C; MDMT: -7 deg C.
The client choose nodular iron. Is it OK? I am worried about the temperature. Nomarlly, what is the lowest temperature we can use for the nodular iron?
Thanks.
