In pressure relief systems, accurately estimating temperature changes during fluid flow is vital for relief piping ...

Oil field operators can use several practical equations for calculating flow rates of natural gas through venturi gas-lift valves. For critical flow, this analysis derived such equations from a ...

Download the PDF brochure for more information about Alicat Scientific's Whisper series flow meters and controllers. Pressure drop can be defined as the quantity of line pressure, which is lost ...

Replacing worn-out couplings with the incorrect size can cause unintended consequences. Flow velocity is an important consideration when replacing a larger hydraulic hose inside diameter with a ...

I am disappointed every time I see the flow coefficient C v used to size a valve without consideration given to the other components in a pneumatic circuit. In the old days, a focus on the valve alone ...

Settle-out calculations in natural gas systems need to be sufficiently rigorous accurately to predict settle-out under various operating conditions without being so conservative as to increase costs.

Feedwater control valves play a critical role in boiler operation. One important parameter of their design is the pressure drop at the rated condition as well as off-design conditions. However, ...
