I have been working on the wind load calculation of a Pressure vessel, the point is that the ASCE standard defines the procedure to find the wind load (lb) but in every pressure handbook they use the pressure on the vessel (psf) to feine the load on the pressure due to the wind.
My doubt is how...
Hey guys, I have been working in a oil- gas separator on CFX. The most difficult part has been the correct selection of the boundaries conditions.
The inlet condition is the less difficult since I have the flow rates in that point, the hardest part are the oil outlet and the gas outlet, because...
I´m working on a fire system for a plant and the point is that i´ve read in the NFPA about jockey pump and I do understand that jochey pump work to maintain the pressure in the pipe line.
So my doubt is about that in the project that I´m working they want to maintain the pressuere with a...
I´m working in a gas plant design and a co-worker is working with the fire line location, he wants to place the fire pipes in the pipe rack with other pipes.
I was thinking that this piping arrange is not the most secure, because if I have an explosion in a tank, the explosion will destroy the...
how can i get deep information about non nwtonian fluid flow?I have to design a piping system, but i haven`t found any information about how!!!
what should i do to analize those kind of system?
thanks
I have a doubt about which standard should I use a for designing piping system, but not the type and those things, I mean not the 31.3.ASME!!
I want to know wich standard should I use to analize and design piping system, head loss, max velocitis, etc...
Thanks
If i have a combined system with sprinkler, hose and hydrants, i will have differents pressure requirements, for expample, 100 Psi for hydrant, 65 Psi for hose and 20 Psi as minimun for sprinkler.All the system before, will be preasurized by one pump, so i will set my pump to the highest...
wich is the mean difference betwen standpipe and hydrant?, i´ve read a lot in NFPA-14 and y understood that both are the same with the unique differece that one is suplied for a public netowork(hydrant) and the other it´s supplied for a private network
