Hello,
I would like any ressources and information about compressors...A field where I'm not so good.
How do a compressor work, the most inportant information i have to know about compressors ad so on...
The caracteristic curves as well, the real mean of adiabatic and polytropic...
Hello everybody,
Is there anyone who knows where I could find a collection of articles named "Facts at your fingertips" that we find on a magazine called "Chemical Engineering" without making a subcription...
Maybe there is a book that gather these good articles for example...
Thanks a lot,
Méli

Hello,
I'm novice process engineer.
Can anyone advise me good books for design?
A very simple, clear and educational with a lot of examples to begin slowly but surely...
For the moment, I'm reading the GPSA, wonderful...Do you know other books ?
Thanks a lot...
Hello everybody,
I would like an advice:
I'm going to buy the book: "Rules of thumb for chemical engineer" that looks very very interesting, I think it will be useful for me everyday...
If anyone has this book, could you tell me more about it?
Thanks a lot!

Hello,
Can somebody tell me what is the difference between MAWP (for working pressure), MAOP (for operating pressure) and design pressure?
For me, I think MAWP < MAOP < Design P, what do you think?
Thanks a lot!
Hello,
I have a problem to calculate a massic composition:
I have 357.28 kg/h of a gas composed by:
CH4 : 88.1859% (massic)
CO2 : 10.1861%
N2 : 1.6209%
H2O : 0.0042%
H2S : 0.0030%
I will pass my gas in an adsorber (molecular sieve) to reduce elimante HO and reduce CO2 and H2S and I will have...
Hello,
I would like to design an adsorption column (tower?) for CO2 adsorption and for that, I'm looking for the suitable kind of adsorbant for CO2.
For the moment, I have found some articles speaking about zeolite 13X (?), zeolite 4A (?) and activated carbon, but I didn't found any...
I am reading right now the API 520 that I found very interesting...
Well, in this document, they specify a difference between the MAWP and the design pressure;
It is said that "MAWP is normally greater than the design pressure".
Is it the same rule everywhere I go or could it change from company...
Hello everybody!
First, I introduce myself: I'm a novice process engineer working on a gas company since soon 3 months...
I used to ask my questions on chemical process engineering forum.
I would like to ask a new question about "piping classes origin", I have found an interesting discussion...
Hello,
Have you some information on how to do a blow-down study?
I mean all the steps to follow and so on...
Is there any useful site or pedagogical ressources on the web?
Thanks a lot!

Hello everybody!
Can anyone tell me why the primary rating are:
150#
300#
400#
600#
900#
1500#
2500#?
Why there is not 200# or 1000# or any other number...?
How did we get these numbers?
I'm sure there is an explanation like for the ND of pipes (coming from Renard series).
Thanks a lot!

Hello,
I have to complete some datasheets with all the design calculations I have.
For this, I have to specify all the nozzles and instruments that are on my equipments:
Nozzles are indicated by N1, N2, N3...and so on...Logical: N for nozzle...:o)
Instruments like "level gauges", "Pressure or...
Hello,
When one wants to design any equipment, we define the OPERATING (which are the real ones) and the DESIGN (which are with 5% or 10% more to the operating ones) values of T and P.
I thought that :
OPERATING values = DESIGN values
OVERDESIGN values = DESIGN values + 5/10%
But I think...
Hello!
I have the solution, but just to be sure:
Could you remember me the conversion from weight percent on to mole percent (for gases)?
Thank you so much!
Hello everybody,
I would like to know what is ASTM A105 and what does RJ and RF facing mean for a flange?
Also what does the RJ and RF letters mean?
For example, I found out that the type WN means Weld Neck...
Sorry for my bad English and mistakes...
