I've searched the forums and can't find an answer to my question so here it is. I have a vertical tank with a dimple jacket welded onto it. The vessel is about 40 years old and the manufacturer is out of business. I want to put a circulating tempered water loop on the jacket so I need a flow rate and pressure drop for the pump spec. I have found only one reference for calculating pressure drop in a dimple jacket, an article by Garvin which was published in CEP April 2001. Anyone have any other references for this calculation? Thanks very much.
