Hi,
I'm a mechanical engineer, but I figured that I'd post this in the Chemical Engineering forum given that a lot of you guys seem to know about CO2 liquid storage and their components.
I was inspecting the installation of a new CO2 liquid storage tank and noticed that the drawings indicate...
We are currently in the process of starting up an open system with large Armstrong Inline Pumps (~100hp). The pumps are currently controlled by the BAS through VFDs. The balancer has now come in and claims that he is hearing cavitation as he ramps up the pumps and that we are not meeting the...
We are currently looking to change out the motor of an existing fan with a larger one (75hp to 125hp). The weight difference in motors is approximately 550lbs and the motor mount size has changed from a NEMA326T to a NEMA444T. Initially we were told by the base manufacturer that we could simply...
My boss wants me to design a utility trestle that supports several large utility pipes in between buildings on site. I have no idea what typical design/build practices there are for this type of structure. He wants a modular design with 18' sections and catwalks on either side so that the...
I was wondering about the usefulness of industry conferences and learning seminars. Is it worthwhile to go even if your boss won't reimburse you for your expenses or pay for your time?
