Valves
Calculate realistic control valve pressure drop by rules-of-thumb method
Pressure drop is defined as the difference in pressure between two points of a fluid-carrying network.
C3, splitter revamp case study emphasizes importance of balancing in four-pass trays to achieve separation efficiency and capacity
The C<sub>3</sub> splitter in an olefins plant is one of the most important and critical pieces of equipment: it separates polymer-grade propylene from propane.
Added benefits of control-valve environmental packing
Packing selection used to be a straightforward task that played a small part in a valve specification process that was much more involved.
Innovations
Rockwell Automation has reinforced new capabilities in emulation and support with its first expansion of FactoryTalk® Logix Echo.
Innovations
For organizations to secure their operations and reduce cyber threats, a successful cybersecurity strategy requires solutions to secure endpoints—any device that is connected to a network outside of its firewall, including laptops, human-machine interfaces (HMIs), switches, Internet of Things (IoT) devices and more.
Real-time monitoring of creep damage for fired equipment tubes, employing advanced web platforms
Within the petrochemical industry, fired heater tubes and boilers experience high tube metal temperatures (TMTs) for extended periods of time.
Variable-speed pumps and minimum flow control valves: Design and implementation
Within hydrocarbon storage terminals, product pumps are the most vital rotating equipment for terminal operations and maintenance.
Business Trends: Optimize pump systems to save electrical energy
Given the global rise in energy costs, there has never been a better time to review and assess the efficiency of pumping systems—whatever their size, complexity or sphere of operation.
Valves, Pumps and Turbomachinery: Calculate flowrate through valves, fittings and pipe under a laminar flow regime
Calculating flowrate through long, straight pipe under laminar flow regime is easy using standard equations of fluid mechanics.
Design, operation and troubleshooting of sulfur-handling plants: Challenges and practices
The transportation of large quantities of liquid sulfur is costly and often impractical since it requires a continuous supply of heat energy to maintain its liquid form.
