Once pulverized coal flows have been measured, they can be balanced and optimized. Until then, tuning is simply guesswork. The right way to balance furnace fuel flows is to establish solid baseline ...

Rather than building ever-larger Coriolis, vortex or ultrasonic sensors, engineers can use smaller measuring paths and combine their outputs to accurately measure flow in large-diameter pipelines.

With system efficiencies continually improving and environmental requirements becoming more stringent, subcooling and superheat measurements have become more and more important. They are the truest ...

Knowing the size and distribution of coal particles can significantly help optimize combustion and boiler performance. The traditional way to measure this important property is to collect samples from ...

With the purpose of verifying onshore and offshore platforms such as Pemex's and detect cracks or corrosion, the Mexican Corporation of Material Research (COMIMSA) designed RoboPipe, a robot capable ...

Lancaster, Pa.-based Inoex LLC uses the latest radar sensor technology for noncontact measurement of the diameter and wall thickness of pipe as it is being extruded. The Warp inline product portfolio ...

Chapter 6 describes initial subsurface site characterization and post-steel-installation subsurface monitoring. This chapter focuses on practices for monitoring the steel itself. Once in the ...

Oil company BP is installing a corrosion-monitoring system for steel pipes at its 11 refineries around the world, following several years of testing the RFID sensor system at two refineries to track ...

A new RoboPipe has been developed. It is a robot capable of inspecting the pipes in the chemical and petrochemical industry without risking personnel. With the purpose of verifying onshore and ...
