Once pulverized coal flows have been measured, they can be balanced and optimized. Until then, tuning is simply guesswork. The right way to balance furnace fuel flows is to establish solid baseline ...

Many homeowners notice that plumbing noise becomes more prominent at night. Sounds such as knocking, ticking, banging, humming, or rushing water often seem louder when the building is quiet. While ...

In pressure relief systems, accurately estimating temperature changes during fluid flow is vital for relief piping ...

Turbulence is one of the great mysteries of modern science. It is also one of the most important, as most of the flows we’re interested in are turbulent. In some applications, such as industrial ...

The significance of water volume measurement is growing, particularly in large diameters. The challenge related to fresh water or cooling water processes is to form accurate flow recordings or to ...

The first step in optimizing combustion system performance is balancing the air and fuel flowing through each of the plant’s coal pipes—the pipes that convey the air/fuel mix from the pulverizers to ...

Figure 1: Localized and fully turbulent flow. At flow rates larger than those sustaining the regime of localized turbulent patches, the situation is fundamentally different: once triggered, turbulence ...
