I'm wondering if anyone has a good handle on how much (or how little) oxygen we would require in the following scenario to avoid corrsion of our uncoated carbon steel pipeline:
Fluid - sea water
Temp - 5 to 25 degrees C
Velocity in pipe - 1.4 m/s
Pressure - as high as 2000 kPa, as low as...
I have a question regarding the reduction in MDMT and the corresponding reduction in design pressure without the requirement for impact testing.
On page 44 of B31.3-2004 (Note 3) it states that impact testing is not required for an MDMT below -29C IF the stress ratio does not exceed 0.3 (as...
We are planning on using a hydrocyclone to remove larger particulate from an ocean water feed, prior to entry into sand filter beds to remove finer particles and silt.
My question is, how much of the inlet water to the hydrocyclone can be expected to be washed away with the particulate?
Clean...
Does anyone know of any issues with using a flexible coupling on the discharge of a pressure relief valve. The PSV is mounted on a compressor suction line and because of the vibration of the compressor, there is issues with mechanical damage to the PSV. I was wondering if it would be possible...
Can someone tell me if and where corrections for AMSE codes are made available?
Specifically - In B31.3 the formula for wall thickness of a pipe under internal pressure (Sect. 304.1.2) has two formulas. One of the includes a weld strength reduction factor (W), and the other does not. A...
