Looking at determining system pressure after failure of isolation of discharge pressure to suction piping(lower pressure rating). The calculation requires finding the final pressure.
T final= H/(Cp*Total mass) - at settleout with combined suction and discharge masses and volumes
P final =...
Is it a hard and fast rule that the PSV discharge pipe be at least as large as the PSV discharge connection? I am looking at an as-built pump skid with a blocked discharge PSV -1"x1" - with a 3/4" connection to a 2" line back to the tank. Don't have API 520 with me and no discussion I have...
Greetings,
I am in need of appropriate sources and assumptions to evaluate the residence time needed for producing a shallow sands oil to a test separator already serving test production from a deeper, warmer, less viscous oil. A cursory look at shallow well rates for oil, water, and gas...
Friends,
I am designing well trunk and lateral systems and was wondering if there was a link to API-14C and was wondering if there was any other useful information outthere regarding design of oil production systems.
I am specifying a heater for a new tank. My bright idea was to use the glycol available at 180 F and route it through the interior of the tank in 2" welded pipe and coil it until the appropriate BTU's are transferred. Considering the tank has no mixing, assuming the fluid is stagnant, how...
Trying to add a servuce to an existing PD pump. I am sizing a PSV off the pump and am pinched between it and the MAWP of the pipe to the point where the magnitude of the pulsation might not allow the PSV setpoint to be within the allowable 10% overpressure. Any relationship to predict the...
At 450 PSIG and -60 F what is the saturation concentration/ partial pressure of water? We trying to reduce the water content of a stream to prevent hydrate formation. It our understanding that water needs to be present to create hydrates. The HYSYS model runs out of significant figures for...
I want to figure out how to determine what the air temperature would be out of a swamp cooler if the RH of incoming air is 70 and the temp is 90 F. Saturation efficiency of the cooler is 95%. I think it is accurate to read the dry bulb temp off the chart, but want to know how to do a water...
This has been bugging me for a while and since I just joined the Forum, I thought I would post a question. How do you determine the fraction of liquid and vapor from a pressure enthalpy chart when inside the two phase region?
