Hi @georgeverghese,
thank you for the suggestion, I actually stumbled upon a company who made induction heaters, but it seemed to me that the wall of the mixer would get much hotter than desired. We don't want any part of the material to be warmer than 170ºC. Do you think it be possible with...
@Compositepro
Thank you for the reply. That is a good advice, but stability could be an issue, as well as there are many different material and they would need to be premixed in advance to be put in drums. Maybe it could make sense to pre-melt the 2-3 main components of the mix in advance and...
Hello All,
I am looking into a designing a process involving a heated batch mixer of 30m^3 volume. All the raw materials are solid granules. The process involves melting the material and then processing it further. I want to minimize the melting time of the material. Normally, the first choice...
Thank you for the answers.
I am also guessing the loop connection was maybe to dampen the gauge needle vibration by keeping an air layer in between. There is also one loop before a temperature gauge which I don't quite understand. Does the blade pass frequency pulsations mean some kind of...
Walt Thank you for the comments. I will check the strainer, align the coupling and reduce the flow to see if helps.
I was thinking it could be air entrainment rather than cavitation as it is the first run.
Can you tell me why the gauge vibrates when it is mounted as such? In the current setup...
Does my pump seem to be working fine or is this noise and vibration on the gauge indicating a problem? The fluid is thermal oil, the centrifugal pump works at 3000 rpm.
I am suspecting it could be entrained air or limited suction flow.
If it is regarding limited suction flow, will decreasing...
