    Offshore Platform Sensors

    What kind of project are you working on? You'd have to get in touch with an engineer at a company that operates an offshore platform. There are all kinds of electronic instruments, but they can be measuring pressure, temperature, mass flow rate, pulse frequency, differential pressure, pH...

    Temperature Measurement on LNG lines

    Typically when mounting RTDs on pipe surfaces, you don't want to mount on the very top or very bottom. Very top is bad because the pipe could be only partially full. Very bottom is bad indeed becauase of condensation, rain, etc. Common practice is to mount the RTD firmly with a...

    Orifice Plate measurement error - entrained liquid

    Thanks sdl. The meter is downstream of a 3rd party separator. Our problem is liquid carryover from the separator. In essence the meter shows more gas than they actually sent, since some of the time liquid droplets and slugs were going through with the gas. They don't maintain their separator...

    Orifice Plate measurement error - entrained liquid

    I'm measuring a natural gas stream with an orifice plate dp meter. Occasionally, slugs and gurgles of water will come through the meter (not on purpose, but it happens). We separate the liquids from the gas at the other end and quantify them - I know how much water came through. I know these...

    Hysys: Actual gas Flow

    I'm pretty sure Actual in HYSYS means actual, at the flowing temperature and pressure (CFM or ACFM). If you wanted that same gas flow rate at Standard conditions, 60 F and 14.7 psia, then you want Standard gas flow rate (SCFM). You could build a table and have it display both Actual and...
