  • Piping Arrangement drawings sections and elevations
    Pipe Drafting and Design (Third Edition), 2012
    Co-Authors: Roy A Parisher, Robert A Rhea
    Abstract:

    The Piping-Arrangement drawing evolves from the foundation location and equipment location drawings. It shows all mechanical equipment and vessels in the unit and the pipes connecting them—including manholes, ladders, platforms, and davits. It identifies all structural supports such as pipe racks, equipment structures, columns, braces, and any fireproofing they may have. Once locations for foundations and equipment are established, Piping configurations are added to the drawing with the aid of symbols that represent fittings, flanges, and valves. The Arrangement drawing is the most significant drawing developed by a Piping designer. This plan-view drawing is a major source of information used in the fabrication and erection of the Piping facility. Information on the Arrangement drawing aids in the development of the Piping model and the isometric drawings. Good dimensional Arrangement and placement enhance a drawing's effectiveness. Clear, concise, well-placed dimensions not only reflect a well-thought-out drawing but also simplify communication, which minimizes checking and reduces drawing revisions.

  • Experimental investigation of water based photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) system with and without phase change material (PCM)
    Solar Energy, 2017
    Co-Authors: Sajan Preet, Brij Bhushan, Tarun Mahajan
    Abstract:

    Electrical efficiency of photovoltaic panel depends upon material of photovoltaic panel and its operating temperature. Electricity generation of photovoltaic cell drops with rise in temperature so cooling is required to increase its performance. Photovoltaic/thermal system (PV/T) is a technology in which solar thermal system embeds behind PV panel which extracts heat of photovoltaic panel and keeps PV panel cool. This article presented experimental investigation of different PV systems under environmental conditions to improve performance of PV panel. Three different systems are used, which consisted of convectional PV panel, water based photovoltaic/thermal system (PV/T) with double absorber plate and water based photovoltaic/thermal system with phase change material (PCM). In water based PV/T system, double absorber plate is used in which top absorber plate is attached to PV panel and second absorber plate is attached to copper pipes having same shape of profile as that of Piping Arrangement. In water based PV/T-PCM, paraffin wax RT-30 is used as phase change material. Experiment was performed at three different mass flow rates i.e. 0.013 kg/sec, 0.023 kg/sec, 0.031 kg/sec and its effect on electrical and thermal efficiency has been investigated. It has been observed from analysis that photovoltaic/thermal technology could become a significant solution to provide higher electrical and thermal efficient systems.

  • selecting the best Piping Arrangement for scaling up an annular channel reactor an experimental and computational fluid dynamics study
    Science of The Total Environment, 2019
    Co-Authors: Francisca C Moreira, Elvira Bocos, Ana G F Faria, Joana B Pereira, Claudio P Fonte, Ricardo J Santos, Jose Carlos B Lopes, Madalena M Dias, M A Sanroman, M Pazos
    Abstract:

    Abstract This study is focused on the selection of the best Piping Arrangement for a pilot scale annular channel reactor intended for the remediation of waters and wastewaters. Two annular channel reactors composed of a single UV lamp and distinct Piping Arrangements were considered: (i) a novel reactor with tangential inlet/outlet pipes – the FluHelik reactor, and (ii) a conventional Jets reactor. These two reactors were manufactured at lab scale and characterized in terms of residence time distribution (RTD), radiant power and ability to degrade aqueous solutions spiked with a model compound – 3-amino-5-methylisoxazole (AMI) – by H2O2/UVC and UVC processes. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations were used to assess the hydrodynamics, RTD and UV radiation intensity distribution of both reactors at pilot scale. In general, experimental results at lab scale revealed quite similar RTDs, radiant powers and AMI degradation rates for both reactors. On the other hand, CFD simulations at pilot scale revealed the generation of a helical motion of fluid around the UVC lamp in the FluHelik reactor, inducing: (i) a longer contact time between fluid particles and UV light, (ii) more intense dynamics of macromixing as a result of larger velocity gradients, turbulent intensities and dispersion of RTD values around the peak, and (iii) a more homogeneous UV radiation distribution. In addition, the design of the FluHelik reactor can favor the implementation of various reactors in series, promoting its application at industrial scale. The FluHelik reactor was chosen for scaling-up. A pre-pilot scale treatment unit containing this reactor was constructed and its feasibility was proven.
