More details

Description
One regular factor in flow rate design is the calculation of pipe size. To diminish capital cost, some engineers may decrease the pipe size and increase the velocity.
Optimizing the pipe size and velocity of the fluid not only improves the system efficiency but can also increase the service life. Some of the issues faced during increased velocity and undersized piping:
High velocity in pipelines promotes corrosion/pitting; piping may be repaired or replaced sooner than expected.
Abrasives and Erosion can cause premature failure
Surge pressures due to water hammer cause more damages at higher speed.
This course is mainly focused on pipeline sizing considering velocity and pressure drop criteria. However, before directly getting into this, some background information is desired to be provided. Course was taught by Process Engineer working in oil and gas field to the group of bachelor and master students. The main aspects discussed via the course are:
Fluid flow essentials
Shear stress
Primary parameters for fluid flow
Significance of average velocity in calculations
Viscosity
Fluid flow types
Flow regimes and Reynolds number
Difference between gas and liquid flow
Continuity equation for fluid flow
Calculation of density for gases
Standard vs actual flow rates
Determination of friction factor through a pipe
Line sizing performed on a real case problem
Above points have clearly been discussed during the course. This training can be really helpful for students, engineers and even teachers aiming to deliver line sizing essentials from engineering point of view. By spending only 2 hours, you can really understand the whole topic and further do practical calculations.
Course instructor does also provide the service of answering questions for all course participants for free.

Instructor's Courses

Welcome to Chemical Engineering University. We have opened up a new way for learning in engineering and named it as "Chemical Engineering University". Here, everyone from different disciplines, beginners, even students trying to find their career path, engineers, and many others can easily take the benefits of our training courses.Chemical Engineering University has now a learning partnership with Udemy and aim to provide more than 100 perfectly-prepared and harmonized by theoretical and practical knowledge training courses. We have included some of these courses in a learning path and have divided this path into 7 essential periods. In period 1, beginners, students and engineers will be able to start with some fundamental courses, such as, Introduction to Chemical Engineering, General Chemistry and Calculus. The second period will be based on again fundamental, but more complicated courses, including Material and Energy Balance and Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams.Moving on to the third period, you can have some other training courses about transport phenomena, mathematics, physical and organic chemistry. Fourth period continues learning path of third one and adds simulation software called Aspen HYSYS.In period 5, more essential training courses, such as, Chemical reaction engineering, process safety and separation processes can be reviewed by you, learners. Chemical/process engineering design, Agile project management, Process economy and optimization and other related courses will also be added into course agenda of Chemical Engineering University in 6th period.The seventh period includes some extra courses, such as Finance and even Probability and statistics will also be part of your learning journey.Our team is working very hard to deliver all the courses we have promised, now if you don’t see the courses in the course list, do not worry, because some courses are under preparation.All courses provided by Chemical Engineering University, will be voiced over by me. My name is just Engineer and you will see me always on the left top of your learning page.In addition, In every course we deliver, you will be given with practice questions and assessments to ensure proper learning and to make you get into the harmony of theoretical and practical knowledge!

I am a Process Engineer who focuses on providing highly valuable and practical designs on projects. I have worked on several projects and delivered high-quality work with the team of Engineers, such as Pump Troubleshooting, Line/Pipe Sizing and Design and Hazard Analysis on a pre-defined oil platform. Now, I continue my career as a Process Engineer at Umid Babek Operating Company, working with an excellent team of operations engineers managing both offshore platform (Umid-1 Gas-Condensate) and onshore terminals (Dashgil and Sangachal Main Facilities)As a graduate with bachelor's and master's degrees, I aim to transfer my knowledge on Engineering into the documents and to build the largest Engineering platform (which has already been named by me as “Chemical Engineering University) all over the world. Therefore, I also work to provide high-quality video-lectures and materials for more than two years, as a Trainer or Video-Lecture Provider.
