Hi All,
I'm building a tank heat loss spreadsheet with reference to the article "Predict Storage Tank Heat Transfer Precisely" and have noticed that in the article example they are multiplying the liquid phase Grashof number by 100 and not the vapour phase. I can't figure out why they would do...
All,
I need some help with a CSA Z662 interpretation. Here's the situation:
- I have a CSA piping spec that calls for the use of A105 valves in a LVP (oil), low temp (-45 deg C), PN100 (9930 kPag) service.
- CSA Z662 table 5.1 states that LVP service is categorized at Cat. 1 with no min...
Hi all,
I'm replacing an old section of produced water pipe and am trying to figure out if I should internally coat the carbon steel (A106-B). I don't have any info an the existing pipe so can't use that as a benchmark, however I have a water analysis that shows a chloride content of 13,896...
Hi All,
I have a piping spec that does not allow 8" or larger globe valves and insists on a v-ball or gate valves as an alternative. I'm not sure the reason for this and am wondering if anyone has any insight? Below are the spec conditions:
Flange rating: 600# (max pressure: 10,210 kPag @ 38...
Hi Guys,
Does anyone know if you can use CSA gr. 359 flanges in lieu of ASME A350 Flanges in a B31.3 piping system? I'm not sure if B31.3 will recognize the gr. 359 material. Thanks,
James
Hi there,
I'm wondering if trim 8 can be used in lieu of trim 12 for an A105-N check valve in a sour hydrocarbon service with a design temp of 294 deg C and pressure of 7832 kPA. From what I've read the only difference seems to be trim 8 uses 410SS, while trim 12 uses 316SS
Thanks
