    How to create a simulation model for isenthalpic (adiabatic) flash?

    When I size two phase PSV, I need to run HYSYS for an isenthalpic (adiabatic) flash calculation at 90% of relief pressure to calculate the vapour specific volume. Could someone guide me how to set up this HYSYS model. The service is condensate, tow phase will be water and steam. Thanks in advance.

    Nitrogen Stainless Steel Piping

    Not this reason. They maybe consider some cryogenic problem when transferring a "big" flow rate of nitrogen. But I do not see any of this kind problem here.

    Nitrogen Stainless Steel Piping

    Our client needs a 3" nitrogen transferring piping system with 70,000 scfh flow rate under 100 psig pressure. The client engineer indicated they would like to use stainless steel piping. I just wonder what is the reason behind that? Thanks advance.

    Cycles N / Factor f

    Thanks all of you. Is anyone familiar with ADLPIPE? and how to specify f or N in ADLPIPE?

    Cycles N / Factor f

    Hello, everyone, This question comes in my mind today suddenly. According to B31.3, if SE<SA, the piping system could pass the displacement stress analysis. SA=f(1.25Sc+0.25Sh) or SA=f(1.25(Sc+Sh)-SL) Either of those two equations depends on Factor f, or say, Cycles N. Let's assume there are two...

    Refrigeration machinery room ventilation

    According to CSA B52 clause 7.10, the room ventilation required to exhaust is based on the system refrigeration charges. What I know now is the HP of the ammonia compressor. How could I estimate the exhaust fan flow rate? Thanks ahead.

    Earthquake load vs. Thermal expansion

    The thermal stress is considered as Displacement stress, and seismic as Occasional stress. They are calculated separately. I guess you should us B31.1 because it is a pipe for geothermal power plant, and should check Eq. 12 from the code.
