Pretty good size of pipe inside AWWA water tank serve to diffuse and minimize mixing.
Size is 30" to 40". tank is 40ft and atm pressure. So max pressure pipe will see is hydraulic head by assuming no water hammer load.
Water will diffuse at close to working level so pipe will be riser close to...
I am assigned to design a spill way for LNG tank. It is to drain LNG in case flange failure. While sizing the vertical drain piping, I was told to use self-venting design which limites froude # <0.3.
My questions are:
1. If design for full flow(froude # =0.8), is it acceptable? what bad will...
Does someone has a few names of top centrifugal fan manufacturers in the united states?
We need fan could deliver 70,000CFM at 0.6PSI back pressure to be more specific.
Thanks in advance.
Two difficulties I encountered when using mathcad in x-y plot :
1. I found no way to draw a vertical line say x=4.
2. I found no way to place two set of data in same graph (ie, two dataset with same x range, but different intervals)
Any ideas?
Thanks.
I would like your support for the following problem:
My task is to evaluate heat gain from environment to a cooling storage tank in the summertime.
Two questions I have are:
1. Unit area solar radiation. Is there a map or similar to find the max unit area solar radiation at a location? I...

My two questions are regarding aboveground outdoor steam distribution piping approximately 2km in length. Pressure is 17.5bar.
1. Between B31.3 and B31.1, which one will be the best design code?
2. In pressure loss calculation, crane fluid...
I would like your support for the following problem:
I tried to decide the plastic piping material for inside container water distribution.
Pipe size : 18in to 30in
Medium: water for Cooling /Firefighting
Temperature: 40 -55 F
Pipe with radial slots (every 5in) to evenly distribute water to...
To me it seemed that B31.3 has no control on cross weld, nor recommends seam stagger spacing, while such requirements are in ASME VIII , PIP and AWS code.
Is there some space that B31.3 refer to other codes so that no need specifically say that?

The design employs hollow duct in the foundation. They are supposed to take away heat by natural convection to keep foundation cool if pressure vessel on top of is hot(350F).
The ducts are placed horizontally through the foundation. In this way , I am doubting how natural convection can develop...
In one of refinery revamp , both hot air and steam service, the piping spec calls out valves 3" and above with no exception flanged gate valve.
The service is 500F - 800 F and 40 psi. Class 150.
I wondered. I am thinking of butt-weld would be superior to flange considering from weight, leak...
