Dear Seniors,
I am designing palm oil storage tank and palm oil require heating for flow in pipes for which I am designing coil heater for storage tanks. Coil heater is always dipped in palm oil and heating medium is steam. I have calculated heat load requirement, heatlosses through shell...
Dear Seniors,
I have designed lot of fixed cone roof storage tanks as per API 650. Recent past one of my customer asking dome roof storage tank for storing of palm oil. Now my question is for which type of applications dome roof will be preferable? What will be the major difference between...
Dear Seniors,
There are five very big storage tanks like 2500cum-1no, 2000Cum-2nos and 750cum-2nos in which Palm oil being stored. Palm oil at lower temperature is not flowable and hence heating is mandatory. Customer is not having steam facility and hence we suggested electrical immersion...
Dear seniors
I have erected a positive displacement pump along with piping in one of our project. after completion of erection of piping we have observed a crack at pump discharge flange. Photographs of the same attached herewith. My customer is saying that this is happened due to mismatch...

Dear Seniors,
For pressure and temperature ratings of valves we refer ASME B 16.5. In this standard it was very clearly stated at what pressure and temperature what rating of flanges shall be used.
The same way now I am using PN6 rating valve. Which code I have to refer for temperature...
Dear Friends,
Our organisation has established welding procedure specification and supporting procedure qualification record. Recently we have taken new welder. To qualify him based on established procedure, whether radiography test alone sufficient or tensile and bend tests are required...
Dear Seniors,
I am using HFO as media. While calculating the pump head, i calculated pressure drop in MWC and the same i converted in MLC by using the following formulae
MLC = MWC x Specific gravity of fluid.
I have used the above formulae for all my calculations. But one of my consultant...
