This project investigates how serrated and non serrated flange connections perform when exposed to external loading. The goal is to understand whether one connection type begins to leak earlier than ...

Subsea oil and gas production subjects industrial instrumentation to some of the harshest operating conditions. Valves — particularly those used for isolation and flow control — bear the brunt of ...

The primary considerations in slurry valve selection are reliability in function and design, abrasion resistance, and ease of maintenance. In addition, valves with a straight-through, unobstructed ...

External leaks from valves during valve cycling are common problems for plant operators around the world. These leaks can have disastrous consequences, contaminating the environment and endangering ...

The intent of this study is to investigate the difference between a serrated faced flange connection and a non-serrated faced flange connection; mainly to determine whether one would leak sooner than ...
