Sulfur Piping: Performance Comparison of a Full Steam Jacket and a Thermon SnapTrace System with TFK Strap-On Steel Jackets

Quite often traditional specifications for temperature maintenance of sulfur piping and equipment call for the use of a steam jacket as a requirement for the proper handling of sulfur. This is usually based on historical practice which has not considered the availability of newer more economical methods such as the Thermon SnapTrace system which has also been proven to be an effective method fo...

Automatic Piping System in Ship

One of the most complicated and time-consuming process in ship production is to determine the optimum route of piping. The automatic system to generate optimum collision free routes for pipes is presented in this paper. In the past, research has been primarily focused on the use of only deterministic or only nondeterministic optimization techniques to find the optimal route. In this paper, the ...

Thermodynamic Analysis of a Trigeneration System Based-on an Internal combustion Engine with a Steam Ejector Refrigeration System

This paper aims at studying a trigeneration system, based on an internal combustion engine and a steam ejector refrigeration system. The designed cycle is to generate cooling and heating energies, and supply power simultaneously. The cycle is studied from thermodynamics point of view and for this purpose, the first law of thermodynamics is applied to all components of the cycle. The efficiency ...
