Ensure a truly rigorous relief valve sizing method
Pressure relief valves (PRVs) protect equipment from excessive overpressure and, in case of emergency situations, they should ensure a sufficient discharge of mass to reduce the pressure below the recommended pressure limits.
Six considerations for turbomachinery control upgrades
Increasing competitive pressures in process industries, including oil and gas, are driving dramatic changes in the operational needs of process plants, utilities and pipelines.
Reliability
With certain turbocompressor designs having changed as manufacturers and user-clients constantly push to increase output and efficiency, it pays to know if—and how—high-performance couplings (HPCs) have kept pace.
Digital: Looking to boost safety? Reliable operations are the key
Equipment failures are the thorn in every industrial plant’s side.
Engineering Case Histories: Case 101: Preventing crankshaft failures in large reciprocating engines
