Design considerations materials

Raw material usages per ton of carbon disulfide are approximately 310 m of methane, or equivalent volume of other hydrocarbon gas, and 0.86—0.92 ton of sulfur (87,88), which includes typical Claus sulfur recovery efficiency. Fuel usage, as natural gas, is about 180 m /ton carbon disulfide excluding the fuel gas assist for the incinerator or flare. The process is a net generator of steam the amount depends on process design considerations. 

Poly(phenylene sulfide) (PPS) is another semicrystalline polymer used in the composites industry. PPS-based composites are generally processed at 330°C and subsequently cooled rapidly in order to avoid excessive crystallisation and reduced toughness. The superior fire-retardant characteristics of PPS-based composites result in appHcations where fire resistance is an important design consideration. Laminated composites based on this material have shown poor resistance to transverse impact as a result of the poor adhesion of the fibers to the semicrystalline matrix. A PPS material more recently developed by Phillips Petroleum, AVTEL, has improved fiber—matrix interfacial properties, and promises, therefore, an enhanced resistance to transverse impact (see PoLYAffiRS containing sulfur). 

A knowledge of the properties and behavior of materials used in any ciyogenic system is essential for proper design considerations. Often... 

Specifications include dimensions of length, width, and depth, in that order (Fig. 21-40 ). When boxes are set up and closed by automatic equipment, dimensional tolerances become critical. Cartons are shipped knocked down to the user from plants located in all industrial centers. Because order lead time is 4 to 6 weeks, inventories of empty boxes require considerable space. A useful booklet describing all aspects or corrugated box designs and materials is the Fiber Box Handbook available from The Fiber Box Association, 2850 Gulf Road, Rolling Meadows, IL 60008. 

The integrity of pipelines depends upon conect design, including materials selection, support and protection from mechanical damage. Depending upon tlie gas, routine inspection and maintenance may be supplemented by the provision of gas detection and alarm systems. Other considerations are exemplified by the safety-related controls on the transportation of domestic gas via pipeline systems summarized in Table 15.17. 

Typical applications for nylon include small gears, bearings, bushes, sprockets, housings for power tools, terminal blocks and slide rollers. An important design consideration is that nylon absorbs moisture which can affect its properties and dimensional stability. Glass reinforcement reduces this problem and produces an extremely strong, impact resistant material. Another major application of nylon is in fibres which are notoriously strong. The density of nylon is about 1100 kg/m. ... 

Some other problems include clogging of the opening with exhausted material and an opening shape that is not chosen to fit the process which results in use of higher flow rate than necessary, thus increasing the cost of the process. Other problems are described in Design Considerations. 

This discussion will address needs, applications, performance characteristics, and design considerations for LVHV exhaust ventilation. The applications are primarily for dust control. LVHV systems can be effective for protecting workers from dust exposures and for recovering valuable process materials. The equipment, excepting the nozzles, involves technology that is the same as for large central vacuum cleaning systems. 

In comminution processes, energy consumption is often the most important design consideration. In fact, it has been estimated that 1 per cent of global energy consumption is used in comminution. Energy consumption is a function of the size and hardness of the material and the required degree of breakage or surface area formation. Empirically... 

The micromechanics approaches presented in this book are an attempt to predict the mechanical properties of a composite material based on the mechanical properties of its constituent materials. In nearly all fiber-reinforced composite materials, there is considerable difference between expectation and reality. Thus, we must ask what is the usefulness of micromechanical analysis beyond gaining a feeling for why composite materials behave as they do Basically, there are two answers one related to designing a material and one related to designing a structure. 

This report provides an aging assessment of electric motors and was conducted under the auspices of the USNRC NPAR. Pertinent failure-related information was derived from LERs, IPRDS, NPRDS, and NPE including failure modes, mechanisms, and causes for motor problems. In addition, motor design and materials of construction were reviewed to identify age-sensitive components. The study included consideration of the seismic susceptibility of age-degraded motor components to externally-induced vibrational effects. 

Define plant areas handling hazardous and lethal materials and set rules for design considerations, such as ventilation, explosion walls, etc. Flammable storage materials may require enclosed dikes, foam systems and the like. Refer to National Board of Fire Underwriters or specific insurance company to coordinate recommended protection. Attaway has details on many points to consider. 

The number of packing sizes, types (designs), and materials of construction currently available to the designer has increased considerably. To select a packing for a process application requires a weighing of information and an evaluation of the closest comparable data. 

Primarily it is the demand for MU and its quality (by which we mean the level of natural and introduced contaminants present in the water), coupled with the boiler and support equipment design and materials of construction under consideration, that collectively provide for a unique set of potential waterside problems in any individual steam system cycle. 

The split-fraction coefficients can be estimated by considering the function of the process unit, and by making use of any constraints on the stream flows and compositions that arise from considerations of product quality, safety, phase equilibria, other thermodynamic relationships and general process and mechanical design considerations. The procedure is similar to the techniques used for the manual calculation of material balances discussed in Section 4.3. 

This section discusses several material and design considerations for FMLs. It highlights some of the problems encountered in designing bathtub systems for hazardous waste landfills and describes the impact of regulations on material and design considerations.
