چکیده

The paper analyses possible types, shapes and locations of defects in a life cycle according to such factors of a urea reactor as material, structure, manufacture approach, work environment, operating medium and failure mode. Then suitable nondestructive testing methods are chosen to test a urea reactor on service on the basis of characteristics of various nondestructive testing methods. And test procedures are optimized which not only ensure urea reactor safety operation, but also reduce test time and minimize plant stand-by loss caused by a test.

PC-Based Systems for Ultrasonic and Eddy Current NDT

In Germany, the last light water reactor (LWR) was put into service in 1989 (Neckar-2) [1], and due to the current political atmosphere no new LWRs are being considered for construction by the utilities at this time. Therefore, nondestructive testing (NDT) for new construction is no longer an attractive business, and is only required after component repair and/or component replacement. The tech...

CFD Simulation of Dimethyl Ether Synthesis from Methanol in an Adiabatic Fixed-bed Reactor

A computational fluid dynamic (CFD) study of methanol (MeOH) to dimethyl ether (DME) process in an adiabatic fixed-bed reactor is presented. One of the methods of industrial DME production is the catalytic dehydration of MeOH. Kinetic model was derived based on Bercic rate. The parameters of this equation for a specific catalyst were tuned by solving a one-dimensional homogenous model using MAT...
