Vibration of the recycle piping system on the Main Oil Line (MOL) Export Pumps from a platform in the North Sea raised concern about pipe breakage due to fatigue. Failures had already occurred in associated small bore piping and the instrument air supply lines and control accessories on the recycle flow control valves. Concern also existed due to the vibration of non-flowing pipe work and systems such as the deck structure, cable trays and other instrumentation, which included fire and gas detection systems. Many changes involving bracing of small bore attachments, stiffening of supports, adding supports and stiffing the deck structure were implemented without resolving the problem. The vibration was finally solved by adding enough pressure stages to assure the valve trim exit velcoities and energy levels were reduced to levels demonstrated historically as needed in severe service applications. This vibration energy reduction was more than 16 times. This was achieved by reducing the valve trim exit velocity from peaks of 74 m/s to 12 m/s (240 ft/s to 40 ft/s).

In collaboration with BPPT,  PTPN V management starting in 2018 took place at the Sei Pagar  Mill PTPN V in Riau Province, planning the implementation of Biogas to Boiler technology to maximize the use of Biogas. The study aims to substitute shells for steam boilers / kettle through the scheme of using biomass POME to boilers at palm oil mills. The Utilization Model is a simple representation  of a complex process in reality. To produce the scheme the model was preceded by conducting technical studies and economic studies and comparative studies on several Mill s in Sumatra and Kalimantan. From some of the findings from the studies that were compiled, one of the most suitable models will be made that will be applied in the Sei Pagar Mill. Furthermore, from the model, still through the RISTEKDIKTI Flagship Insinas Program, it will be developed to produce Prototypes and Construction / modifications to the Existing Boiler that is applied to the Sei Pagar Mill . Utilization Model Scheme. Biogas POME to Boilers at Palm Oil Mill by applying Biogas to Boiler technology includes several components of equipment, such as: Blower, Piping System, Valve Train, Gas Burner (Single Burner), Forced Draft Fan, and Control Panel (PHB). Utilization Model. Biogas POME to Boilers at Palm Oil Mill can later be developed and implemented to support the application of Biogas to Boiler technology at Palm Oil Mills in Indonesia.Keywords: Steam Boiler / Boiler, Blower, Piping System, Valve Train, Gas Burner (Single Burner), Forced Draft Fan, and Control Panel (PHB)

Following the adequate model of the reciprocating compressor piping system and the compressor design parameters, operating conditions and gas parameters, the mechanical system of compressor piping, gas-column system, pressure pulsations and of vibration response are numerically simulated. And the main factor bringing to the compressor piping system vibration is identified. A reasonable way to controlling piping vibration is developed to achieve a better efficiency. Keywords: Compressor; Pipe vibration; Vibration Analysis; numerical simulation.

The cantilever fluid conveying pipe which restrained by linear spring and cubic nonlinear spring at its free end was studied and the nonlinear vibration of this piping system was carried out optimal control making use of piezoelectric patch as actuator. Firstly, the governing equations of the controlled system were derived out. Then the optimizer and mode sensor were schemed out. Finally, the control effect of the designed controller on system vibration was validated and analyzed through numerical simulation. The simulation results showed that the designed optimal controller can actualize effective control for the monocyclic motion, multi-cyclic motion and chaotic motion of the pipe conveying system. Meanwhile, the effect of state weight-matrix and control energy weighing coefficients on control performance of system, the influence of the position and length of piezoelectric patch on minimal performance index of system were also been under discussion. For practical application of this control method, we should synthetically consider all of the practical conditions and demands to select the optimal position and length of piezoelectric patch and the optimal weight value of state matrix and control energy according to different work conditions.

Recently, SMART positioners have been widely used to control the on-off and control valves. These devices allow you to set an arbitrary user dependence of the valve travel on the control signal. This makes it possible to provide a linear throughput for the entire piping system. This allows the use of smaller type control valves while maintaining the control range. Accordingly, the energy consumption for controlling the shutoff element is reduced; the value of the reinforcement energy efficiency indicator is improved. In that work analytically calculates a user dependency that takes into account the value of pipeline throughput and allows to obtain a linear throughput of the pipeline system in the entire range of control signal change.

The severe vibration of a screw compressor outlet piping system caused the premature failures of some thermowells and the unplanned shut down of the compressor system. The root causes of the vibration problem were investigated by numerical simulations. An acoustic model was established to predict the pressure pulsation of the gas inside the pipelines, and two finite element models were built to study the vibration characteristics of the overall piping system and of the thermowells. The numerical results indicated that the vibration problem may be attributed to the excessive pressure nonuniformity of the gas inside the pipelines, low overall stiffness of the piping system and the first-order structural resonance occurred on the thermowells. A pulsation attenuator was added and the pipelines were rearranged to reduce the pressure pulsation, some pipe supports were added to improve the overall stiffness of the piping system, and the thermowells were reinforced to avoid the first-order structural resonance. After the modifications, the field measurement data showed that the vibration of the piping system decreased significantly, and the modified piping system has been operating normally for nearly two years.

Electric fields have been applied across oxides growing on a high temperature alloy and control of the oxidation of the material has been demonstrated. At present, three-fold increases in the oxidation rate have been measured in accelerating fields and the oxidation process has been completely stopped in a retarding field.The experiments have been conducted with an iron-base alloy, Pe 25Cr 5A1 0.1Y, although, in principle, any alloy capable of forming an adherent aluminum oxide layer during oxidation can be used. A specimen is polished and oxidized to produce a thin, uniform insulating layer on one surface. Three platinum electrodes are sputtered on the oxide surface and the specimen is reoxidized.

The majority of blood vessels in the superior cervical ganglion possess a continuous endothelium with tight junctions. These same features have been associated with the blood brain barrier of the central nervous system and peripheral nerves. These vessels may perform a barrier function between the capillary circulation and the superior cervical ganglion. The permeability of the blood vessels in the superior cervical ganglion of the rat was tested by intravenous injection of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Three experimental groups of four animals each were given intravenous HRP (Sigma Type II) in a dosage of.08 to.15 mg/gm body weight in.5 ml of.85% saline. The animals were sacrificed at five, ten or 15 minutes following administration of the tracer. Superior cervical ganglia were quickly removed and fixed by immersion in 2.5% glutaraldehyde in Sorenson's.1M phosphate buffer, pH 7.4. Three control animals received,5ml of saline without HRP. These were sacrificed on the same time schedule. Tissues from experimental and control animals were reacted for peroxidase activity and then processed for routine transmission electron microscopy.
