Oil field operators can use several practical equations for calculating flow rates of natural gas through venturi gas-lift valves. For critical flow, this analysis derived such equations from a ...

Replacing worn-out couplings with the incorrect size can cause unintended consequences. Flow velocity is an important consideration when replacing a larger hydraulic hose inside diameter with a ...

Settle-out calculations in natural gas systems need to be sufficiently rigorous accurately to predict settle-out under various operating conditions without being so conservative as to increase costs.

I am disappointed every time I see the flow coefficient C v used to size a valve without consideration given to the other components in a pneumatic circuit. In the old days, a focus on the valve alone ...
