Mechanical Design of Process Systems: Piping and Pressure Vessels [Hardcover]

A. Keith Escoe (Author)


Out of Print--Limited Availability.



Book Description

March 1994 Mechanical Design of Process Systems (Book 1)
This revised and updated edition presents some of the latest, most practical techniques for designing process equipment and components. It contains new worked examples that reflect the latest codes and standards, expanded discussions of heat transfer in piping and equipment, application of the finite element method, new developments and techniques for handling flow-induced vibration and new problem-solving computer algorithms. All techniques and data described in this are "field-tested". For example, the book contains new tables of velocity heads and a comparison of the flexibility and stiffness methods of pipe stress analysis. Other topics include heat transfer through pipe supports and vessel skirts, design of horizontal vessel saddles, how to determine when wear plates are required, and many practical methods that simplify pressure vessel design. Most of these techniques and applications are clearly illustrated in worked examples of the design of actual operating units. This allows practising engineers to use the techniques with confidence, and helps engineering professors better acquaint their students with "real-life" design problems.
