    Reduction in MDMT without impact testing

    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...

    Pressure Releif Valve Piping Requirements

    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...
