We have a closed cooling circuit with a pump and a heat exchanger, (with a by-pass pipe to control the cooling). This circuit is basically closed, because, although the suction of the pump is also connected to an atmospheric tank, the pipe connecting to the suction pump has a check valve, (and...
Hello,
Somebody has told me about a kind of "continuous detector" along a water pipe that is able to detect a small leakage at any point of it. It seems that the system consists of some kind of cable that is attached to the outside part of the pipe. Some of its properties change...
I have doubt regarding the discharge of saturated steam under pressure (250 psig) into the atmosphere, after a rupture of a pipeline.
Do I have to suposse that this process is adiabatic (isoenthropic) and that part of its enthalpy is transformed into kinetic energy, so the steam can condensate...
