    What stress values (safety factors)

    nozzle reinforcement is done to bring down the stress concentration at the joint due to removal of material. When the area provided is more or equal to that of area required, the stress concentration is assumed to be nil. But if the reinforcement is less the stress concentration would be higher...

    How do you figure out GPM

    If your flow system is a closed loop system, Differential pressure across the condenser coil will be equal to = K* (Kinetic energy) Where KE = (1/2)*density* (velocity)**2 K = pressure drop co. If you know the pressure drop across the condenser and the pressure drop coeficient of the...

    Pipe flowing compressible fluid

    Dear Luiz, You have to find out the Mach no. of your steam flow. If it happens to be less than 0.3 you can neglect the compressible effects and use the same formulas applicable for non-compressible flow. Generally any industrial compressible flow rate are chosen such that the Mach. No. does not...
