    Sulphuric acid piping

    Carbon steel is fine for sulfuric acid in the 93% to 98% range that it is normally shipped at and is generally at a temperagture below 100 degrees F. It isn't likely that the truck or tank car is able to withstand more dilute acid than this. However, if your acid concentration is really as low...

    MEASURING TWO PHASE FLOW

    I know that this thread is a bit old, but here is a link to the web site of a company that has technology that listens to the flow and interprets the sounds produced by turbulence to determine the flow rate. They also claim to be able to measure multiple phase flows. It might be helpful, if...

    Calculating Burst Pressure of Tubing

    Over 20 years ago (before I was finished with engineering school), I did some work with Lexan tubing. I'm not sure and I would talk with your supplier, but it appeared to me that the tubing, an extruded product, might have different strength properties in the longitudinal direction than in the...

    Pumping Flashing Steam Condensate

    I am looking for tools to help calculate the pressure drop in steam condensate lines with flashing present. I have found a variety of spreadsheets that are helpful, but everything that I've found only handles the calculations for one piping segment with flow and one diameter. I need to be able...

    You may have already solved your problem and I don't know if you are looking for something that is intended to pump water or something you can adapt to your use, but you might consider paint sprayers, also available at building material centers. They have a small reciporicating piston pump that...
