Is there a section of the code which deals with the requirement for PSVs on Pumps for Thermal Expansion case?
I am used to seeing on heat exchangers and vessels which can be isolated but not pumps.
Another side question on the same topic. Generally when are PSVs required on piping for...
Two questions on placement of instrumentation in relation to controlled valve. My collegues don't agree with one another so...
1) Temperature Transmitter (TT) to close a valve on High Temperature Alarm to protect downstream system. I have seen this control loop with the temperature...
Can anyone provide a reference for design factors/allowances used for the increased roughness factor of a pipe for the design life of the system when calculating the pressure drop?
Are there any rules of thumb?
I have heard of using 5 times or 10 times roughness factor for aging of pipe but...
1) Does anyone have a good reference regarding the effect of increased pipe roughness due to corrosion and what should be looked at in the hydraulic calculations.
We are looking at adding approximately 5km to an existing piping system and are using 5x roughness for the pipe.
2) Does...
