Iron manifests chemical and physical characteristics, identifying itself as an element of the periodic table whose atomic number is 26, that is, the atom has 26 electrons and 26 neutrons neutral. It is located in group 8 and period 4 and its atomic mass is 55.85 umas. In general, its density is […]...

The trap is attached over the duct line that wishes to be cleaned. Classically, it has a flat lid with a davit or an opening system to enter or remove the scraper, and on the other end is the reduction that couples with the pipe. This is because, by design, […]...

Design standards and characteristics One of the standards that provides guidelines on the design and manufacture of these tubulars is API 5CT and here production pipes are defined as the set of three types of pipes: drilling, casing, and production. properly. Each of them has a […]...

Depending on the type of well being exploited, additional help is often required to lift the fluid to the surface. In this way, there are wells, called springs whose fluid has enough pressure to go out towards the surface, while others require the delivery of additional mechanical energy, whose apparatus […]...

Theoretical foundations Like all distillation, the essence of the process is based on the scheme: A distillation tower has a heat source in the lower zone, such as the Reboiler, which generates that, thanks to the delivery of caloric energy, part of the components (one or more) go into the vapor phase. TO […]...

Within what is known as subject or pressure devices there are many types and many industries that use them. The most common, to name a few, are: liquid separators, free water, economizers, liquid receivers, separators in general, hydraulic storage tank, filters, etc. others. Taking into account the variety and versatility […]...

Types: floating roof and fixed roof (umbrella and dome type) There are various types of tanks used in the industry, although the most typical are those with a floating roof and fixed roof. One of the critical aspects in the design is the size of the tank, emphasizing that there are tanks of up to 55,000 m3, the […]...

Parts A cooling tower is a piece of equipment that is very always in terms of its components and its design. It consists of a casing that surrounds the filling or the evaporators, through which the water will circulate. Likewise, there are one or more fans, they can even become blades depending on the size and the requirements of […]...

Operating principle Basically, its operation is based on the purpose of the equipment. Upon leaving it, the fluid must have cooled to a certain temperature, often including not only a sensible heat exchange but also a latent heat exchange, that is, reaching the phase change inside […]...

Fundamentals of heat transfer For the transfer of heat from one medium to another to be effective, there must be a driving force, in this case, we call the driving force the difference in temperature that exists between the two fluids. In this sense, the energy is transferred from the hottest zone to the […]...
