I appreciate the comments. I understand the inherent dangers of stored energy from the pneumatic test and thanks to a previous thread on this subject i was able to come up with the stored energy numbers. I guess my question was more in regards to how a fluid vs. a gas behaves through a small...
Is this correct? You can justify a leak pneumatic test at a lower pressure than a leak hydro test. Because the molecular weight of the gas is lower, thereby you are able to identify a leak faster. If so how can this relationship for a nitrogen leak test vs. a diesel leak test?
Hello everyone,
My question is in regards to clamps and how to make sure that it is properly designed for your equipment. For example, a clamp on a heat exchange how can you back through any calculations how much void is acceptable for the sealant. I would appreciate any help in the matter.
