    Shell & Tube Falling Film Evaporator Nickel Tubes Collapsed

    An unfortunate incident happened at our triple effect caustic evaporator (32w.t% to 51w.t%). The third effect (highlighted red) where major steam (~12-13bar depending on flowrate) assisted evaporation take place, here for some reason Ni tubes get severely collapsed, while the plant was offline...

    Moist Chlorine & Hydrogen Psychrometric or Mollier Chart

    In our electrolysis of brine, Cl2 & H2 are produced as gaseous products along with aqueous NaOH. In this scenario I require what amount of maximum moisture can Cl2 or H2 hold up at specific temperature & pressure (precisely 85celsius & 1.2bar absolute). Two coolers (shell/tube exchanger with...

    Difference b/w Retrorockets & Vernier thrusters

    Retros used for deorbital/orbital insertions..ok thnx got it. But verniers used for altitude control?...ths makes no sense in the presence of large primary nozzles which are to take care about altitude. I thing verniers are for orientation control.

    Difference b/w Retrorockets & Vernier thrusters

    these two term are different but from photos the two components looks quiet alike..i had done some search but can't grasp ACTUAL difference b/w the two as both are small rocket auxillary nozzles... by the way I have been able to discover what is in the first photo but can't identify a...

    regarding ambiguity b/w fences & GasterBumps(I can't find any picture. of the latter) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wing_fence Regarding 2nd question. In my understanding the pure-delta wing is highly prone to stall at high AoA reason is the spanwise flow! This problem thus can be...

    Exploring Air-Flow Characteristics on Swept Wings

    Which is the airfoil having highest lift to drag ratio?

    for highest lift you must make something like B-2; I.e blending fuselage with wings in such a way that the whole resulting shape acts like an airfoil! http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/9771/flyingwinggoogledocs129.png [Broken] Uploaded with ImageShack.us see the sideview of B-2 just like...

    Air Intakes of Soviet Aircraft

    What does this bold part means. The placement of air intakes with respect to cockpit is fairly equal that of Su-25/30/35 & F-15/35/22 With the exception of F-16/J-10(a copycat of F-16) all modern aircraft had 2 side air intakes. including the newbaby JF-17

    I assume starter motor are predominantly for compressors (even though turbine is attached from a coomon shaft) ; because after combustion start turbine start to move & carryout combustion one must move compressor such that air is sucked & compressed to combustor. However once process is...

    Cruise is the level portion of aircraft travel where flight
