The trunnion ball valve design maintains a reliable seal under high differential pressure without excessive torque, ensuring ...

Bypass pipes, accompanied by a three-way control valve, are often seen in hydronic systems at both served loads (e.g., reheat coils) as well as at primary equipment (e.g., cooling towers). Reasons for ...

Tulsa-based Flow-Quip, Inc. was selected by Petroterminal de Panama, S.A. to supply two 24-inch, ANSI 600 ball-type flow control valves on the reverse flow and upgrade of the pipeline from the ...

Pipe-flow turbulence is a problem in the transport of oil, water and other fluids, and once established, it is persistent and costly. Turbulent fluids consume greater pumping energy and can cause ...

Learning the basics can ease loop tuning frustration and ensure stability. During plant operations, it seems that tuning control loops is an ongoing task, which can be a continual frustration to ...

The trans-Alaska Pipeline System is still 100 percent full. The speed of oil flow, not the amount of oil in the 39-year-old pipeline, is the issue creating engineering challenges for Alyeska Pipeline ...
