    Dew point for RNG

    What pressures are those dew point temps? Composition has a big impact and the is no easy way other than direct testing to get you a number, especially at 275 bar. Have you used something like HYSIS or an EOS? I'm assuming you don't want free water in your CNG truck transport, so you might...

    Air India 787 crashes on take off

    There's increasing noise about an initial report being issued end this week / early next, but don't expect much other than the simple facts (4/5 pages) seems to be the news. They still seem to be going for 3 months before issuing anything of depth.

    Bowstring Steel Pedestrian Bridge Connection Details (Top and Bottom Transverse Members and Diagonals)

    I think these look really ugly and will be an absolute bitch to install unless the ends are cut super accurately and square and the bolts drill within 1mm of where they are supposed to be. Have you thought about internal box sections which extend say two or three times the lengths of your...

    Fan blade worn out

    Nothing here makes sense to me. Three identical pictures of what seems to be an impellor, but it has a solid inner core? EDIT - I now see once I click on the photo that we're actually looking at two blades of the impellor... difficult to see the trailing edge of the top one. Also doesn't look...

    Connection Between Tanks

    Odd question with no details.... Errr to flow liquid or vapour between the tanks? If liquid then a low as possible, if vapour then a high as possible. Far too many variables here to give any other opinion.

    U-bend before pump suction inlet.

    Two options as most people say, either the inlet gets clogged and the wanted an easier way to disconnect and flush out the gunk or someone thought it could be semi self priming. Ask the operators....

    Compensating pressure in Cryogenic Storage Tank

    Well that makes a HUGE difference. Essentially there is no pressure fall in the tank during loading of the tanker. Of course the tankers need to have held pure CO2 before being loaded, but that part of operations / tanker management to sort that out.

    Process Chill Water Loop for Multiple Machines with varying requirement.

    your system as others have noted is just too small to be extended. increasing flow has a squared association with pressure drop. There are many details missing from your sketch including pump curves or duty points, lengths of the respective sections and elevation and also what the pressure drop...

    Air India 787 crashes on take off

    WARNING. THIS REPORT IS FAKE AI GENERATED. But it might be being used by those not knowing to justify their opinions. And has been circulating for a few days A number of incorrect items. Flight was to Gatwick, and it wasn't raining at take off... It also didn't go into the ground at an...

    Air India 787 crashes on take off

    Where did this get stated or confirmed? I'm not saying you're wrong, just I haven't seen anything that states this with any certainty.

    Two Pumps of Different Product and Ratings Pumping into a Common Header

    That's still a high pressure for a 900m long line. The other thing is to look at both extremes if this pressure includes tank liquid height. Process engineers tend to have a very worst case/ highest pressure drop approach but the pressure required when the tank is empty could be a lot lower...

    Pump modifications

    If the impellor is to be reduced in size within the limits of the vendors pump curves then power will reduce, so so issues I can see. The change in head can be significant and hence power consumption is reduced. Key thing is to keep the impellor diameter within the minimum allowed by the...

    Two Pumps of Different Product and Ratings Pumping into a Common Header

    A 10" line with 62 psi going into a storage tank seems quite high unless its a long distance or you're going up a hill... Or there is a further control valve downstream the point where the flows join? It's not easy to comment further without seeing the whole process diagram from end to end and...

    They appear to have been able to download the FDR and CVR from the crashed units in Delhi on Wed 25th June. Hopefully they start giving some decent answers soon.

    What is "Free length" of springs in safety relief vavles??

    I really can't see any difference here. both say "original free length". When you measure Original free length is surely up to you? Basically they are just making sure you don't yield the spring when you compress it to solid / cant compress it any more....

    Two Pumps of Different Product and Ratings Pumping into a Common Header

    See below: My questions are the following: For the control valve differential pressure, should I use the 62 psig as the input for my pressure drop (head loss) calculation, by assuming the the downstream pressure end is 62 psig and add back the head loss up to the control valve outlet? At the...

    Air India 787 crashes on take off

    The other idea skulking around is some fault or override on the TCMA system designed to cut engine power when on the ground and engines at a different power level to where the throttle lever were. Now it take a whole lot of holes to line up in the Swiss cheese, but as we've seen before, this is...

    Plugging and wrong DP output

    A tap point below the demister? Even a very good demister will give you some sort of differential pressure which makes your level readings inaccurate. your connection point just needs to be above the max liquid level.

    Compensating pressure in Cryogenic Storage Tank

    GD2 I think you mean the pressure drop will be faster when the tank is nearly FULL? I.e. volume change is significant.

    Flow inconsistence

    SO what is the question here? The way you have set up your simulation fits the description. I don't know that program or how it models pump curves or valve CV. If it just assumes the pump flow is a fixed number then it will give you a fixed number. If you input the actual pump curve and valve...
