SUMMARY:Compressed System Noise Prediction
DESCRIPTION:AFT Arrow 10 has been enhanced with a noise calculation at a pressure-reducing device\, to help engineers avoid failures caused by AIV based on Energy Institute guidelines. \nHigh-Frequency Acoustic Excitation (AIV）\n– In a gas system\, high levels of high-frequency acoustic energy can be generated by a pressure-reducing device such as a relief valve\, control valve\, or orifice plate.\n– Acoustic fatigue is of particular concern as it tends to affect safety-related (e.g. relief and blowdown) systems.\n– In addition\, the time to failure is short (typically a few minutes or hours) due to the pipe’s high-frequency response.\nJoin us as we model an example of how to use this feature. \nPresenter: Reinaldo Pinto\, Technical Sales Director \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:A Look at an Engineering Failure
DESCRIPTION:In 2016\, a waterhammer event occurred at an alumina refinery which caused a slurry pump to catastrophically fail. Like many engineering failures\, this one was a result of several independent issues combining in time and space to cause a catastrophic failure. This webinar will review the event\, root cause of the failure\, and guidance on best practices engineers could incorporate in their surge mitigation plans to proactively prevent waterhammer incidents. \nPresenter: Trey Walters\, PE

SUMMARY:Model Twice\, Cut Once: Calibration Approaches in AFT Software
DESCRIPTION:A model in AFT software is only a representation of a physical system. Properly calibrating a model to field data is often the first step in hydraulic analysis\, ensuring changes to the model will be reflected by the physical system. \nThere is often uncertainty when modeling existing systems\, modifying piping and components to capture degradation\, identifying inaccurate drawings or datasheets\, or capturing unusual components as resistance curves. \nThis webinar will highlight some features and approaches to calibrate your AFT software model to field data\, providing a strong foundation to modify and improve operation. \nPresenter: Nick Vastine \nWednesday\, November 15\, 2023\n10:00 AM – 11:00 AM (MST)

SUMMARY:Meeting Code for Pipeline Pressure Surges: ASME B31.4
DESCRIPTION:Pressure surge (aka\, waterhammer) analysis is not just a good idea\, it is required in part by code – specifically ASME B31.4 for pipelines. It guides you to look at cases of variation from normal operation to ensure pressures don’t go too crazy. That requires doing some calcs. \nMany engineers are intimidated by the topic\, but we are here to show you the way. Using simulation software\, like AFT Impulse\, does the heavy lifting in doing these analyses to ensure your pipeline meets code. \nPresenter: Walt Prentice\, Business Applications Engineer II \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Hydraulic Institute Learning: Fundamentals of water hammer and surge suppression
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nWaterhammer is a pressure surge in a piping system due to a sudden change in flow. It can occur when the power to driver is lost\, air is expelled from a system\, a valve closes too quickly\, or a check valve slams shut. This webinar will review what can happen as a result of the waterhammer\, some basic physics\, and ways to account for it in your pumping system design. \nLearning Objectives\nUpon successful completion of this webinar\, participants will be able to: \n\nDefine waterhammer terminology.\nIdentify accidents caused by waterhammer.\nDescribe the four stages of waterhammer.\nUnderstand the Joukowsky equation.\nUnderstand the communication time concept.\nIdentify different types of waterhammer.\nSolve fundamental equations.\nUnderstand general principal of operation of a pulsation dampener.\nIdentify the types of dampeners and their pros/cons.\nDescribe configurations and their pros/cons.\nIdentify technical questions answered by waterhammer analysis.\nDescribe the effects of water hammer on pumps and valves.\nExplain transient cavitation.\nDescribe the different methods surge can be suppressed.\n\nPresenters\nTrey Walters\nPresident\nApplied Flow Technology\nTrey Walters is President of Applied Flow Technology. His company develops simulation software for flow and pulsation. Mr. Walters holds both a Bachelor and Masters Degree in Mechanical Engineering. He sits on several standards committees of the Hydraulic Institute and is a Fellow of the ASME. \nAmy Marroquin\nSenior Hydraulic Engineer\nBlacoh\nAmy is a Sr. Hydraulic Engineer for Blacoh Industries\, a certified Women’s Business Enterprise\, and leading manufacturer of pulsation dampeners\, surge suppression and other industrial fluid control products. In this role\, Amy provides training and guidance in the fields of waterhammer and computer surge analysis. She is a Texas A&M engineering graduate with almost 20 years of engineering and management experience. Designs have encompassed numerous piping systems\, pressure vessels and packaged equipment for a broad range of fluid medias including water\, chemical\, hydrocarbons\, natural gas and sour gas. Amy has held leadership roles in several fast faced\, critical projects installed worldwide.
