Thanks. Yes, I understand. It was erroneously Hydro-tested at a much higher pressure, the pipe and flange held pressure well. I just was wondering if the Flange would be affected in any way.
It was primarily the 300# flanges (I said 1125 psig since that was the maximum allowable non-shock pressure); sizes ranging from 3", 6" and 8" line.
the piping is fine since it has a much higher burst pressure.
Hello,
Can someone advise what the factor of safety for a flange may be, for example, in one situation a flange rating of 300# *max hydro-test pressure of 1125 psig) was hydro-tested to 2160 psig. The pressure held and nothing failed. Is that okay?
Please advise.
Berkshire,
This product was designed and engineered by a consultant that was hired about 10 years ago. However, the individual in context is passed away a few years ago and I am trying to understand and deduce his calculated information and design criteria.
During my research on inertial...
Berkshire,
Thank you for your response.
I am primarily trying to calculate the pressure drop across the intake house before entering the silencer section.The velocity that i have calculated is i believe the face velocity at the exit of the inertial separator through the louvers.
Since, we are...
Berkshire,
Thank you so much for your response.
The example that you have sent is exactly what our design is based on; the Dynavane type inertial separator. I am going to attempt to upload an attachment with my design drawings for this application.
Based on Imok's recommended websites, i have...
Thank you Imok2.
Thank you Berkshire, however now i am confused.
This is an inertial separator application.i am attaching some drawings that we have devised for fabrication. The volume of air-flow handled by the Intake house is going to be 248,000 CFM of which 10% is bleed air. the air enters...
I am working on the design of an air intake house for a certain capacity of air flow. Now this was designed by a consultant with a lot of experience several years ago. Now we are replicating this design for the intake housing based on the concept of Inertial separators.
I am trying to understand...
