What types of industries require GTAW-quality pipe welds?

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

Types of industries require gas tungsten arc welding quality pipe welds.

Explanation of Solution

Gas tungsten arc welding (GTA) for pipe is used where joint has high degree of integrity. Integrity of weld is the type of weld which is strong and defect free. Many industries are using these types of joints in pipe. Some of industries name are given as follows:

  • Oil industry.
  • Gas industry.
  • Nuclear industry.
  • Chemical industry.

Gas tungsten arc welding gives the welding joint as industries needed. High skilled person required to this GTAW for pipe in industries.

3. The design of a pump and pipe system has been completed, except for the valves. The system is used to transpor10t water at 120°F through 2 nom sch 40 commercial steel pipe at a required flow rate of 85 gpm. Without the valves, the pump selected has the capability to overcome an additional 18 psi of pressure drop due to the valves and still provide the required flow rate. The pipe/valve joints are threaded. Determine how many 2-inch globe valves can be installed in this pump and pipe system.
4. Figure 1 shows a pump and pipe network being used to transport heptane at 120°F to a large, elevated, closed storage tank. The tank is pressurized and maintained at 18 psia. The volumetric flow rate of the heptane is 500 gpm. a. Specify the nominal diameter of the check valve. b. Determine the pump discharge pressure required (psia) to move the heptane through the discharge pipe. Plank = 18 psia Liquid level Large pressurized storage tank 40 ft All pipes are 6-nom sch 40 commercial steel Standard 90° elbows and 180° bend Total length of straight pipe = 115 ft Class 300 swing check valve INH Pump Figure 1: Pressurized storage tank system
2. In a particular section of a fluid system, a 30% ethylene glycol mixture is flowing through a 6- nom xs cast iron pipe at a temperature of 0°C. In this section of piping, the velocity must be maintained in the range 1.5 m/s
