Pipe bends curved to a radius of less than five diameters of the pipe are undesirable as expansion Contributed to Power by William F. Fischer. bends, because, being so stiff, they fail to take up the expansion in the line, and a good deal of strain is thrown on the fittings and joints. The radius should be at least five or six pipe diameters and if possible even greater than six diameters, say ten or twelve, in order to give sufficient elasticity. Anchoring The method of anchoring the steam line and the position of the anchor are important details. The line may be so anchored as to throw severe strains on the joints, working the gaskets and bolts loose and causing leakage; or a broken fitting or cracked flange may be the result, making it necessary to cut out one or more units while making repairs. Many leaky joints can be traced to this cause. No special rules can be given for designing and anchoring for expansion. The designer must depend on his own good judgment in placing the bends, anchors, etc., where they will do the most good. However, a knowledge of the expansion of pipes when heated is essential. Expansion In Fig. i there is shown a 10-inch extra heavy steampipe, and two clamps A A anchored rigidly to the walls. Say, for example, the pipe was placed in the position shown, at a temperature of 60 degrees Fahrenheit, anchored rigidly between one clamp and allowed to move freely through the other when expanding; supposing that while in this position, steam at 250 pounds pressure (above vacuum) was turned into it superheated 100 degrees, the pipe would heat and cause it to expand and slide through the clamp at the free end. The elongation of the pipe, due to expansion due to the difference of the above...

Download or read book Working Guide to Pump and Pumping Stations written by E. Shashi Menon and published by Gulf Professional Publishing. This book was released on 2009-10-21 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Working Guide to Pumps and Pumping Stations: Calculations and Simulations discusses the application of pumps and pumping stations used in pipelines that transport liquids. It provides an introduction to the basic theory of pumps and how pumps are applied to practical situations using examples of simulations, without extensive mathematical analysis. The book begins with basic concepts such as the types of pumps used in the industry; the properties of liquids; the performance curve; and the Bernoullis equation. It then looks at the factors that affect pump performance and the various methods of calculating pressure loss in piping systems. This is followed by discussions of pump system head curves; applications and economics of centrifugal pumps and pipeline systems; and pump simulation using the software PUMPCALC. In most cases, the theory is explained and followed by solved example problems in both U.S. Customary System (English) and SI (metric) units. Additional practice problems are provided in each chapter as further exercise. This book was designed to be a working guide for engineers and technicians dealing with centrifugal pumps in the water, petroleum, oil, chemical, and process industries. - Calculations for their selection, sizing and power output - Case studies based on the author's 35 years of field experience - Covers all types of pumps - Simplified models and simulations

Download or read book Primary Secondary Pumping Made Easy written by Dan Holohan and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I was fortunate to have had the late, great Gil Carlson as one of my teachers. He invented primary-secondary pumping in the early '50s and went on to do many other things. Over the years, I've watched a lot of trial and error with primary-secondary heating systems. That's a shame because guesswork costs both time and money. In this book, I've used what Gil taught me to show you how to reduce the size of your pipes, valves, fittings and pumps, and how to lower heating system temperature, and all without sacrificing performance or getting into trouble. This book covers two-pipe primary-secondary heating systems, as well as one-pipe heating systems. It shows how to get the most out of two-, three-, and four-way valves, as well as injection pumping. I also give you lots of options for your boiler-room piping (for both single- and multiple-boiler systems). It's loaded with diagrams and I went easy on the math because you may not be an engineer (and neither am I). This book will save you time and money and keep you out of trouble. It is not a primer, but it is easy to understand. - Dan Holohan

Download or read book Centrifugal Pumps written by Dimitris Papantonis and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2012-02-24 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The structure of a hydraulic machine, as a centrifugal pump, is evolved principally to satisfy the requirements of the fluid flow. However taking into account the strong interaction between the pump and the pumping installation, the need to control the operation, the requirement to operate at best efficiency in order to save energy, the provision to improve the operation against cavitation and other more specific but very interesting and important topics, the object of a book on centrifugal pumps must cover a large field. The present book examines a number of these more specific topics, beyond the contents of a textbook, treating not only the pump's design and operation but also strategies to increase energy efficiency, the fluid flow control, the fault diagnosis.
