Experts,
I am simulating a hydraulic swelling test on a metal sheet of thickness 1 mm.
why shall we use the type of element "S4R" for this kind of simulations ?

Experts,
Can I apply the ASME B31.3 formula for calculation of pipe's wall thickness to Stainless Steel ?
If yes, what is the allowable stress that I shall take ?

Experts,
Are mechanical engineers eligible to handle the material selection issues within an EPC? As a Mech.Eng, I am facing a lot of problems dealing with material issues, what shall I do ? and what the company have to do ?
Thank you in advance.

Experts,
As we know, there are several grades of stainless steel (304/04L; 16/316L, Duplex 2205, Superduplex 2207...).
How can I choose the right stainless steel for a specific application?

Experts,
We have to select the materials of an Amine Unit removing CO2 (Up to 80% removal) from the following gas:
Feed Gas composition:
H2O : 0.18 mol%
CO2 : 16.51 mol%
CO : 2.41 mol%
N2 : 0.30 mol%
H2 : 74.79 mol%
C1 : 5.81 mol%
Total: 100 mol%
Amine Used: DEDA+MDEA+water
How can I assess...
Experts,
I have calculated the corrosion rate of CO2 corrosion of free water contaminated with CO2 (piping) (CO%=0.35%; T 38 °C; P=29 barg) with 3 corrosion prediction models:
DeWaard 95
NORSOK M-506
Cassandra model(BP)
I have found:
[b]DeWaard 95 :0.06 mm/yr
NORSOK M-506 :0.1 mm/yr
Cassandra...
Experts,
What are the materials commonly used in electrical driven centrifugal pumps(Case, impeller, shaft) in CO2 capture amine units (H2S and chlorides free gas) ?
Regards,
What is the Road Map of the material selection in in wet CO2 environments ?
For Example :
How can I assess the severity of the environment?
From what corrosion rate shall I consider other solutions as corrosion inhibitors, ph stabilization or even using CRA?
Experts,
What is the role of the Reboiler in the Amine Unit?
I am sorry if this question may be too evident to answer, I have search a lot but I didn't the appropriate answer.

While calculation the corrosion rate of a crude oil pipeline with the deWaard prediction models, I have to use the hydraulic diameter in the calculations.
How can assess the hydraulic diameter knowning that I have all inputs (Temperature, Pressure, Velocity, Fluid contents...)?
