is it true that if you have a hydrocarbon gas mixture and cool it down enough at constant pressure only certain gas components will start condensing (at their sat temp for their partial pressure) and not the entire gas mixture for a certain specific temperature?
i hope this makes sense.
Is it correct that if the saturation pressure is less than the partial pressure of a gas then that gas exists in a vapor state.
and if the saturation pressure is greater than the partial pressure tha that gas exists in a liquid state?
Where are expansion tanks typically placed in a closed system? hot side or cold side? any one have good rules of thumb for placement of diaphragm expansion tanks in a system containing a pump, heat source, and heat exchanger?
thank you.
I am just looking for general information on control panels for closed loop water/glycol systems with a centrifugal pump and a heat exchanger. the water/glycol will be pumped through the system and heated up and then cooled back down with heat exchanger, etc.
Now i am assuming the control...
I have graph for a pump that shows the flow rate versus a lot of different values. one of those values is the total head (labeled T.D.H.). So if I assume that i have flow rate of 30 gpm this coincides with a TDH of 130ft.
Now to figure the operating pressure of my liquid at the pump discharg...
I don't know much about pumps so please correct me if i am wrong. if i see a gear pump it is usually designated as a electric or hydrualic pump, and this is just how the pump is driven, electric pumps have an electric motor attached to the pump while a hydrualic pump has a shaft that needs to be...
