Feedwater control valves play a critical role in boiler operation. One important parameter of their design is the pressure drop at the rated condition as well as off-design conditions. However, ...

Your new apparatus committee has spent a lot of time sorting through details to come up with a good specification for a proposed new engine. This includes a requirement for a midship-mounted fire pump ...

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 ...

Flow is controlled by either throttling or diverting it. Throttling involves reducing orifice size until all of the flow cannot pass through the orifice; bypassing involves routing part of the flow ...

Modern pumping systems and precision control valves are revolutionizing how power generation facilities manage their critical fluid systems, delivering substantial energy savings, reduced emissions, ...

Providing control of flow paths for fluid-handling systems, solenoid-operated pinch valves have low power requirements and are available with a normally open or normally closed valve function. The ...

Centrifugal fire pumps long have been the backbone of pumping apparatus in the fire service because of their efficiency and their versatility. They come in various configurations, so departments must ...
