Hi,
I have a somewhat interesting problem involving pumping water downhill. I have a system which has a static drop of about 6m from inlet to outlet, with a slight crest rise (2m) in the middle, hence the need to a pump system.
I've modeled a power trip simulation for water hammer. The pipe...
Hi,
I'm after an isolation valve for a waste water treatment plant. Our inlet pipe is above the level of the treatment plant, so on power failure of the plant, I would like to isolate the inlet flow so:
1. The pipe does not drain and draw air through vacuum valves.
2. The inlet tank does not...
Hi,
For people familiar with AS 1579.
I'm looking at using this standard for a pump application with ~250 m of head, ~1000mm ID pipe. I haven't used this standard before (much more familiar with AS4041) so would like some clarification on what I seem to be reading.
Is my understanding correct...
I've been doing some reading on water hammer and trying to 'really' understand it.
I've been asked to look at a relatively simple problem of a pump station pump water up a relatively constant slope. Initially this was to be done by others, but I was keen (stupid) to learn.
Details:
Flow: 50 MLD...
I want to do a calculation for maximum span of some DN900 pipe. So far I've done a pressure calculation for pipe wall thickness and distributed beam calculation for span.
However, as the pipe is low pressure, wall thickness only needs to be 1mm.
I'd like some help pointing me to where I need...
Hi,
I'd have thought this would be a simple thing to find, but I haven't been able to find a good answer.
My company is currently ordering some 316SS spiral welded pipe spools. I'm abit concerned that the manufacturer and the procurrent officer don't seem to know to which standard the pipe...
