thanks for the reply BigInch, redesign it to increase the efficiency if, that's what do you mean. thanks

Hi everyone, I need to redesign a 10 gpm @ 1540 psig sump pump cos ' it is undersize. I’ve requested the maintenance history but for some reason the operators are unable to provide so far, this makes it difficult to judge if it is really an efficiency problem or an integrity issue. Have anyone...

Hi Everyone, intro: A 50% deaeration column is to be tested for leaks, the procedure intended to be followed is the following: - Fill the vessel with water to their normal operating level after that apply a N2/He leak test, once this passed a full vacuum test will be carried out. The reason...

TD2K, thank you, very usefull and constructive response, i'll go through all of that (i have gone through some already). take care

TD2K, The fluid goes to the flare, and we have water(low pressure)flowing in the shell and gas(high pressure)in the tube, and yes operators can(depending on their expertise)determine that a burst has occured by looking at the flare changes and other plant changes, my question is if based on...

Hi, everyone. Based on your knowledge and experience I would like to hear your advice/comments on the following: Bursting discs are to be used as the pressure relief device on a Proccess plant shell and tube heat exchangers. These bursting discs are equipped with burst sensors (wire) which...

Hi guys thanks, For a quite a long time bursting the use of bursting discs have been avoided as a pressure relief device for pressure vassels (not for heat exchangers where it is still good practice to do so) mostly in the oil industry. So the reasons for not using the b. discs in pressure...

hi everyone, does anyone know if there is any official document to justify why the use of bursting discs is avoided? Note: i know the reasons (from my point of view) but need an official documentation from an engineering instituition let's say...,
