Integrated slug-flow optimization can mitigate flow problems in a wide range of both offshore and onshore operating conditions. Slug flow is one of the most common flow states in horizontal and ...

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 valves can be customized to specific flow requirements. Each is available in 0.187 and 0.281 diameter models, allowing a designer to specify different metered flow rates for the forward and ...

Many power plants use older control valve technologies that do not address the severe nature of today’s power plant operations. The older design valves require constant maintenance and their ...

Valves and actuators are critical in almost every aspect of power plant operations. They are used in a wide range of applications, including pollution control, feed water, cooling water, chemical ...

Piezo elements are electromechanical transducers that convert mechanical forces (pressure, tensile stress or acceleration) into voltages. The inverse piezoelectric effect, precisely the opposite, ...
