Stop the Guessing Games – Modeling Transient Gases
Sponsored by:Engineering gas and steam piping systems within power generation facilities is a tough job. Balancing cost, effectiveness, and safety while anticipating changes to design requirements takes a lot of work. Analyzing the gas dynamics of a piping system often occurs exclusively at steady-state, but transient deviations from steady-state should face similar scrutiny in the design […]
