principles of Pipeline Technology (CTEC 1470)

Instructor: John Galiotos

Topics include reliable: operations of pumps and compressors, calculation of flow, requirements for flow control valves and mechanics, pressure relief devises, turbo-expanders, pups, water hammer, valve noise, calculation of pressure drops in single and two phase systems, transport maintenance and troubleshooting, transport material safety and operations, corrosion of piping systems, pipe sizing, and solids fluidization. Students will learn pipe design and manufacturing material along with economics associated with transporting of material through piping systems. Students will use software and actual pipeline systems for level and flow control and operations.
