Finger type slug catcher at the Qadirpur Gas Field. Slug catchers are designed in different forms, A vessel type slug catcher is essentially a conventional vessel. This type is simple in design and maintenance. A finger type slug catcher consists of several long pieces of pipe ('fingers'), which together form the buffer volume. The advantage of ...
A slug catcher is a type of vapor–liquid separator that is able to receive a large inflow of liquid at random times. It is usually found at the end of gas pipelines where condensate may be present as slugs of liquid.
A hump slug is designed for even slower operation than a yard slug. They are often six-axle slugs and are often paired with lower-powered six-axle locomotives. They are designed for the specialized purpose of pushing a long cut of cars over a hump at 2 to 3 miles per hour (3 to 5 km/h), while yard slugs would normally operate at up to 15 miles ...
In typesetting, a slug is any of several kinds of piece of lead or other type metal. One kind of slug is a piece of spacing material used to space paragraphs. In the era of commercial typesetting in metal type, they were usually manufactured in strips of 6-point lead. Another kind of slug is a single sort, bearing a single letter or any other ...
The slug is a derived unit of mass in a weight-based system of measures, most notably within the British Imperial measurement system and the United States customary measures system. Systems of measure either define mass and derive a force unit or define a base force and derive a mass unit [ 1 ] (cf. poundal , a derived unit of force in a mass ...
In fluid mechanics, slug flow in liquid–gas two-phase flow is a type of flow pattern. Lighter, faster moving continuous fluid which contains gas bubbles - pushes along a disperse gas bubble. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Pressure oscillations within piping can be caused by slug flow. [ 3 ]
An airgun slug is a new [when?} type of pellet recently developed for pre-charged pneumatic airguns. Unlike the conventional diabolo -shaped pellet, which is aerodynamically poor and relies heavily on drag -stabilisation to maintain accuracy, the slug pellet is cylindro-conoidally shaped like a Minié ball and relies predominantly on spin ...
Hydraulic calculations verify that the water flowrate (or water mixed with additives like firefighting foam concentrate) through piping networks for the purpose of suppressing or extinguishing a fire will be sufficient to meet design objectives. The hydraulic calculation procedure is defined in the applicable reference model codes such as that ...
