    Piping and instrumentation diagram of pump with storage tank. Symbols according to EN ISO 10628 and EN 62424. A more complex example of a P&ID. A piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) is defined as follows: A diagram which shows the interconnection of process equipment and the instrumentation used to control the process.

  3. Boiler blowdown - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_blowdown

    A steam boiler evaporates liquid water to form steam, or gaseous water, and requires frequent replenishment of boiler feedwater for the continuous production of steam required by most boiler applications. Water is a capable solvent, and will dissolve small amounts of solids from piping and containers including the boiler.

  4. Process flow diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_flow_diagram

    A process flow diagram (PFD) is a diagram commonly used in chemical and process engineering to indicate the general flow of plant processes and equipment. The PFD displays the relationship between major equipment of a plant facility and does not show minor details such as piping details and designations.

  5. Run-around coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run-around_coil

    A run-around coil installation, serving air handling units on the roof of an office building. A run-around coil is a type of energy recovery heat exchanger most often positioned within the supply and exhaust air streams of an air handling system, or in the exhaust gases of an industrial process, to recover the heat energy.

  6. Hydronics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydronics

    The two-pipe reverse return configuration which is sometimes called 'the three-pipe system' is different from the two-pipe system in the way that water returns to the boiler. In a two-pipe system, once the water has left the first radiator, it returns to the boiler to be reheated, and so with the second and third etc.

  7. Blowout preventer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowout_preventer

    Pipe rams close around a drill pipe, restricting flow in the annulus (ring-shaped space between concentric objects) between the outside of the drill pipe and the wellbore, but do not obstruct flow within the drill pipe. Variable-bore pipe rams can accommodate tubing in a wider range of outside diameters than standard pipe rams, but typically ...

    This committee put in the form work for the first edition of the ASME Boiler Code - Rules for the Construction of Stationary Boilers and for the Allowable Working Pressures, which was issued in 1914 and published in 1915. [5] The first edition of the Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, known as the 1914 edition, was a single 114-page volume.

  9. Boiler design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_design

    Boiler design is the process of designing boilers used for various purposes. The main function of a boiler is to heat water to generate steam. Steam produced in a boiler can be used for a variety of purposes including space heating, sterilisation, drying, humidification and power generation. The temperature or condition of steam required for ...
