BigInch,
those products will not mixed. Three parallel pumps will be used for every product. Wasn't my question simpler than this? Let's go to the heart of the matter.
Pros and Cons for "Tee with Blind " or "Elbow" at the header.
pennpiper,
I really didn't wanna get you into trouble by my question. Thank you for your time. Now i understand some of your terms. it seems we are going to reach to an optimum design for entire process!
actually, that perpective view is a sample to explain my point about tee(with blind) at the...
Sorry i have also a sample file to show the header with blind flanges...http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=f170b6cb-5ebb-456a-bee4-1db499baf546&file=Sample_Header_(with_Blind_Flange)_for_four_Pump.tif
To pennpiper :
What is the suction source? Ans: if i got your mean by "source" it is "header".
Elevation wise where is the source located relative to the pumps? Ans: See the attached files
What is the commodity in this system? Ans: don't understand
What is the operating temperature and pressure...
To pennpiper :
Yes. I mean "elbow" by "bend". To clarify let me explain. I've to reach a line to suction of three pumps and also collect discharge of them to another line (line=header) according to a P&ID. i'm at decision of whether to use elbow or a tee with blind flange a the end of each line...
I wonder whether to use a tee with blind flange or a bend (for last pump) at the end of pump header. Is there anybody to tell me cons and pros for each one?
