(FREE Software* included with course materials) 2007 Schedule
San Antonio, TX
Attend this two-day Liquid Pipeline Hydraulics
Workshop and get a fully functioning hydraulics software package
This workshop can also be customized and conducted at your company site
What
you will learn at this hands-on workshop :
·
Understand
the important liquid properties such as specific gravity, API gravity, viscosity
in centipoise, centistokes, SSU and SSF
·
Understand and use the various pressure drop formulas such
as Hazen-William, Colebrook-White, Darcy-Weisbach, Miller and MIT
equations for steady state flow in liquid pipelines.
·
Effect of Drag Reduction Agent in improving pipeline flow
rate.
· Understand batching different products in a pipeline.
·
How
to size pipelines for specified flow rate and pressure
limitations.
Calculate Maximum Operating Pressure (MAOP) and Hydrotest pressures per
ANSI B31.4 and DOT code.
·
How
to determine the optimum location of pump stations for hydraulic balance on
long distance pipelines.
·
Calculate
the Horsepower required at each pump station for given throughput.
· Analyze centrifugal pumps for various impeller sizes and speeds. Calculate impeller trim size to reduce energy loss. Understand NPSH required versus NPSH available and its effect on pump cavitation. How to correct pump performance for viscous liquids.
·
Actual
case studies in maximizing pipeline throughput. Limitations of pumps. How to
increase flow rate. De-bottlenecking pipelines. Conserving energy and
calculating energy lost in mismatched pumps and due to pump throttling.
Easy to use Windows software* provided FREE for quick & accurate hydraulic studies. This is not a DEMO program! Models liquid pipelines with multiple pump stations.
Bring your laptop computer to this workshop and solve real-world pipeline engineering hydraulics problems using the free software* provided! You will learn pipeline hydraulics, without the complicated math. Learn from an industry expert who has been in the field for over 29 years. This unique workshop takes the mystery out of pipeline hydraulics and enables you to put to immediate use everything you learn at this workshop.
