    fluid velocities inside pipe before erosion occurs?

    Hi folks, If I were to have a 2-7/8" carbon steel pipe with a 2.441" ID (cross sectional area of 1.812"), what is the maximum velocity I could have flowing through it? As it stands, if I flow 7000 bpd through this pipe, the velocity would be 13.99 ft/sec. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    15% HCL Acid on NACE 4140 & 17/4 SS

    As the tool is down an oil well, it will be flushing past the tool for an hour. Once flushing stops, then the tool will be surrounded in well fluids (oil / gas / water) again. Thanks Dave

    Stub Acme or UN Threads

    thanks Cockroach. We use a programme called Thread Disk by Gagemaker - this allows design of a few types of threads incl stub acme, UN etc.

    Stub Acme or UN Threads

    not sure if you are familiar with oilfield tools but more times than not, non standard sized threads need to be used. We've been doing it for years - tools can range up to 15" diameter.

    Stub Acme or UN Threads

    Hi folks, Was just wondering if anyone could tell me the specific differences over Stub Acme Vs UN threads? As you know, you can design any thread size you like with these two types but why would you choose one over the other? I have heard in the past that stub acme threads have a tendency to...
