Inside diameter

Remote Field Eddy Current (RFEC) technology is a variation of the conventional eddy-current method, developed for detecting flaws at any point in the walls of (particularly) ferromagnetic (Fe) tubes and pipes from the inside diameter. 

The surface tension of a liquid is determined by the drop weight method. Using a tip whose outside diameter is 5 x 10 m and whose inside diameter is 2.5 x 10 m, it is found that the weight of 20 drops is 7 x 10 kg. The density of the liquid is 982.4 kg/m, and it wets the tip. Using r/V /, determine the appropriate correction factor and calculate the surface tension of this liquid. 

Wagner and DUlont have described a low-shear viscometer in which the inside diameter of the outer, stationary cylinder is 30 mm and the outside diameter of the inner, rotating cylinder is 28 mm the rotor is driven by an electromagnet. The device operates at 135°C and was found to be free of wobble and turbulence for shear rates between 3 and 8 sec V The conversion of Eq. (2.7) to Eq. (2.9) shows that F/A = (i7)(dv/dr) (instrument constant) for these instruments Evaluate the instrument constant for this viscometer. 

The spring ensures a soHd closing action and is usually wound from stainless steel wire. The dip tube conducts the product from the container to the valve. It is usually extmded from polyethylene or polypropylene and has an inside diameter of over 2.54 mm, although it can be provided in capillary sizes having diameters down to 0.25 mm. These small tubes are used to reduce flow rate and may function in place of the Hquid metering orifice in the valve housing. 

Hollow Fiber with Sorbent Walls. A cellulose sorbent and dialy2ing membrane hoUow fiber was reported in 1977 by Enka Glan2stoff AG (41). This hoUow fiber, with an inside diameter of about 300 p.m, has a double-layer waU. The inner waU consists of Cuprophan ceUulose and is very thin, approximately 8 p.m. The outer waU, which is ca 40-p.m thick, consists mainly of sorbent substance bonded by ceUulose. The advantage of such a fiber is that it combines the principles of hemodialysis with those of hemoperfusion. Two such fibers have been made one with activated carbon in the fiber waU, and one with aluminum oxide, which is a phosphate binder (also see Dialysis). 

The most familiar gas laser is the helium—neon laser (23,24). Sales of commercial helium—neon lasers exceed 400,000 units per year. The helium—neon laser is a compact package that produces a continuous beam of orange-red light. The inside diameter of the tube is commonly around 1.5 mm. The output of helium—neon lasers available commercially ranges from a fraction of a milliwatt to more than 35 mW. They have many appHcations in the areas of alignment, supermarket scanning, educational demonstrations, and holography. 

Some reactors are designed specifically to withstand an explosion (14). The multitube fixed-bed reactors typically have ca 2.5-cm inside-diameter tubes, and heat from the highly exothermic oxidation reaction is removed by a circulating molten salt. This salt is a eutectic mixture of sodium and potassium nitrate and nitrite. Care must be taken in reactor design and operation because fires can result if the salt comes in contact with organic materials at the reactor operating temperature (15). Reactors containing over 20,000 tubes with a 45,000-ton annual production capacity have been constmcted. 

The most common supported tubes are those with membranes cast in place (Fig. 17). These porous tubes are made of resin-impregnated fiber glass, sintered polyolefins, and similar materials. Typical inside diameters are ca 25 mm. The tubes are most often shrouded to aid in permeate collection and reduce airborne contamination. 

Externally cast membranes are first formed on the iaside of paper, polyester, or polyolefin tubes. These ate then iaserted iato reusable porous stainless-steel support tubes inside diameters ate ca 12 mm. The tubes ate generally shrouded in bundles to aid in permeate collection. 

An optimized relationship is obtained between the beU jar, 60° swing-leaf valve, LN trap, baffle for the oil, and the plane of action for the diffusion pump (DP) top jet. The valve open area equals 0.38 of the cross-sectional area of the inside diameter of the furnace. The volumetric speed factor for water vapor is thus 0.38 x 0.9 crr 0.34, where 0.9 is the Clausing factor. 

Example 8 Compressible Flow with Friction Losses Calculate the discharge rate of air to the atmosphere from a reservoir at 10 Pa gauge and 20 G through 10 m of straight 2-in Schedule 40 steel pipe (inside diameter = 0.0525 m), and 3 standard radius, flanged 90 elhows.

Example 9 Pipe Distrihator A 3-in schedule 40 (inside diameter 7.793 cm) pipe is to be used as a distributor for a flow of 0.010 mVs of water (p = 1,000 kg/m, i= 0.001 Pa s). The pipe is 0.7 m long and is to have 10 holes of uniform diameter and spacing along the length of the pipe. The distributor pipe is submerged. Calculate the required hole size to limit maldistribution to 5 percent, and estimate the pressure drop across the distributor.
