Meant to write 50% above.
I realize that there is going to be minimal losses such as friction and non-recoverable pressure losses, but the flow after the valve should generally be close to what it originally is, correct?
Hey all,
Just a bit confused on the changes in fluid characteristics when using a valve for throttling.
In the case where we have an incompressible fluid flowing through piping at x gpm and y psi, as it crosses a valve which is throttled, the cross section is basically decreased. Relating that...
@Duwe6, it is for dry liquid chlorine so it should not not be a problem. I think we will stick to UT on the bottles. I've read through 510 and it does not stipulate any requirements on hydro testing pressure vessels. Is this required or more of a suggested practice every so often?
Hey guys,
I am currently working on a plan for required tank and pressure vessel inspections throughout the plant and I had a question for the expansion bottles. Basically, we have these 1 inch lines that connect to a rupture disc which then vents to a small carbon steel expansion bottle when...
