Hi,
I am supposed to order a check valve to be used on a subsea pig reciver. the check valve is to be used when dewatering the pipeline when receiving the pigs.
the valve is 4" on a 16" line. what would the cracking pressure be?
Thanks,
Leni
Thanks BigInch,
Not being very good with fluid mechanics, I just cannot get my head around the flowrate calculation. Ok, basically, Q=AV (V being the flow velocity=pig velocity =2m/s and A the inner area)and since Q is the same therefore the water velocity in the branches of receiver will be in...
Thanks BigInch.
Even though your reply still aplies, I thing I better describe more. It is a subsea receiver for pre-commissioning purpose.
Each time a pig arrives to the receiver, it will push some water in front of it. This water will go to a 2" branch which is welded to the receiver and...
I am supposed to design a subsea pig receiver. There is a requirement to take the water and the MEG in front of the pig to the surface.
My question:
How should I size the header? By header I mean the pipe that the water from small branches on the big barrel flow into and will be connected to...
