I am working with a chemical engineer on a project to stop water from vaporizing as it enters a cooling coil in a tank. The tank has product in it that we keep at a temperature ranging from 235°F to 250°F before we start pumping out. We have cooling water supplied by our towers at 40 - 45 psig...
Thank you Pumpsonly, I am looking for pros and cons of both to see if it is benificial to switch. In our current situation the service is dirty with < 1% solids. I have a canned motor pump specified but it requires a cooling water line to circulate in the motor section of the pump. So we could...
Process Conditions:
We currently have 2 pumps in this service, one which charges our reactors and one which is recycling back into the storage tank. The recycle pump is a low pressure pump - discharges at 33 psig and is run though a heat exchanger to keep the process fluid around 90 F to 150 F...
