    Software to Create Flow Diagrams

    Gee, thanks... How about if I want to do both? I am very good with software, lousy with free-hand. I can work faster, probably more accurately, with good software. If the end result looks better with software, and does impress others, all the better. Even engineers appreciate the method of...

    Fire Suppression over a long pump row

    Can anyone point me in the right direction for a discussion on "Fire Suppression over a long pump row"? I assume there are three possibilities -- 1. Steam rings 2. Water 3. Foam water At the moment, I am in a cold weather refinery with an old enclosed Pump House. We are removing the walls of...
