The Vicker hardness test method consists of indenting the test material with a diamond indenter, in the form of a right pyramid with a square base and an angle of 136 degrees between opposite faces subjected to a load of 1 to 100 kgf. The full load is normally applied for 10 to 15 seconds. … Read more
Brinell Hardness Test :- The Brinell hardness test method consists of indenting the test material with a 10 mm diameter hardened steel or carbide ball subjected to a load of 3000 kg. For softer materials the load can be reduced to 1500 kg or 500 kg to avoid excessive indentation. The full load is normally … Read more
What is Hardness? Hardness is the property of a material that enables it to resist plastic deformation, usually by penetration. However, the term hardness may also refer to resistance to bending, scratching, abrasion or cutting. Measurement of Hardness: Hardness is not an intrinsic material property dictated by precise definitions in terms of fundamental units of … Read more
Insulating gasket kit are designed to combat the effects of corrosion often found in flanged pipe systems. Galvanic corrosion between dissimilar metal flanges (flow of currents), flange insulation associated with cathodic protection of underground piping are also the places where Insulating gasket kits are used. It consists of Gasket … Read more
Fluid Hammer Fluid hammer:- When the flow of fluid through a system is suddenly halted at one point, through valve closure or a pump trip, the fluid in the remainder of the system cannot be stopped instantaneously as well. As fluid continues to flow into the area of stoppage (upstream of the valve or pump), … Read more
Foundation Loads of piperack should include the loads of Pipes, Cable Trays and Instrumentation duct at that location and also the design load for future tier shall be full load of the most heavily loaded tier in addition to all other wind/seismic/fraction and piping thermal loads for future pipes. Foundation Loads of Piperack Load of … Read more
A static loads is a force that is applied to a structure or object and does not change over time. Static loads are typically caused by the weight of objects, such as the weight of a building or the weight of a car parked on a road. Static loads can also be caused by other factors, … Read more
Variable Spring Hanger: A variable spring hanger is a type of support used for piping systems. It is designed to allow for thermal expansion and contraction of the piping without causing damage. The variable spring hanger consists of a spring that is mounted between two flanges. The spring is designed to compress and expand as … Read more
Stainless steel pipe is a sort of line produced using tempered steel, a metal that doesn’t rust and has something like 10.5% chromium in it. This high chromium content makes an oxide layer on the surface of the steel that protects it from rust and corrosion. This makes it perfect for many uses where durability … Read more
H2S corrosion:- The presence of H2S corrosion may give rise to three principal types of cracking in steels. These are sulphide stress cracking (SSC) and stress corrosion cracking (SCC), which result from the joint action of corrosion and tensile stress (residual or applied) in the presence of water and H2S corrosion may occur in carbon … Read more
