    Premature Failure of Rupture Disc

    dear ak1965, this arrangement is commomly used in the industry. I am tempted to assume there is a design flaw. I recommend you to search for profesional help. The situation could easily get very dangerous. Eng-tips is a great place to search for information but probably not ideal in your case. rgs

    Design recomendations for steam volume in HRSG

    Dear RR79, I found some information with similar values as you posted but I am interested in lower steam pressure (< 20 bar, water around the tubes) In some text they had a formula (but not a reference): max Steam volume load = 0,264*10E3 * pE-0,7 * C exp -0,61 p pressure (bar) C...

    Design recomendations for steam volume in HRSG

    Dear RMW, the link contain some information but is not enough detailed, thks. Chicopee, as I already wrote to RMW I have the book and by the way it is not a so great reference for this problem. RGS

    Design recomendations for steam volume in HRSG

    Dear Sirs, I am trying to review some steam evaporators (HRSG) installed in our plant. Some operators suggest that the systems are prone to carry-over leading to flooding of the steam line. I would ask for some design recomendations (Book references, articles or WWW-pages). There is an earlier...

    Design recomendations for steam volume in HRSG

    Dear RMW, as posted I check already the posting in this site and googled more than 5 pages. I have too the "Steam Book" from B&W but they only offer descriptional information of the factors affecting the steam separators. If you have useful information please comment. RGS

    Calculate valve heat loss

    Dear Mr. Dias, if you visit the site www.spiraxsarco.com you will find some information about heat tracing. In some contries with high labor cost the tendence is to install electrical heat tracing but also to use metallic hoses...

    Liquid Nitrogen Storage and Distribution

    To liquify and store N2 is a feasible task. If you want to design it yourself, well good luck. If you want a straigth forward solution perhaps you should contact the usual suspects in the liquid nitrogen scene (Liquid Air, Praxair, Linde ect). they have standarized solutions which can be...

    Triple Tube Heat Exchanger

    Dear Sir, I assume that you already got information like "Calculation of overall heat transfer coefficients in a triple tube heat exchanger", Batmaz, Ediz; Sandeep, K. P. What is specifically your problem? If you are a bit more specific perhaps you would get an answer. Rgs

    Freezing fouling design recommendations

    Hello, I am looking for information regarding freezing/ solidification fouling like a published articles (internet) or Books handling this matter. Important would be recommendations and design guidelines. Most of the book have only three to four sentences about this :-((see google books) kind...

    Guidelines for CIP time?

    Clindeman, a CIP process depends strongy on many factors like: a) Product b) degree of dirtiness at the begining c) degree of cleanness needed d) geometry of the vessel There is a lot of "trial and error" involved. The flow you mention is probably for only one set of conditions. That is why to...
