Phase Diagrams for Vapor Pressure Curves While phase diagrams are primarily used by chemists in laboratory environments, these tools are astonishingly useful for mechanical engineers and plant managers tasked with sample analysis. In some analytical systems, a liquid sample must be converted to gas...

How Local Support Can Reduce Costs for Semiconductor Fabricators Consider a potentially grim scenario for any semiconductor fabricator: a pneumatic valve failure. While it might sound mundane to an outsider, this valve helps enable the supply of critical chemistry to an important tool that is expec...

How to Flatten a Regulator Flow Curve to Reduce Droop Jon Kestner Consistent pressure control is essential to the safe operation of industrial fluid systems. Maintaining a reliable downstream pressure with a regulator can help minimize flow rate changes, especially in a high-flow system. However, ...

Gas Distribution Systems The principal aim of this document is to explore and highlight factors that mostdirectly impact the design, operation, and maintenance of industrial grade gasdistribution systems. We examine how and why GDSs often represent a rich opportunity for operationalimprovement. Fo...

Why Safe Industrial Pressure Regulator Performance Requires Rigorous Testing Back-pressure regulators and pressure-reducing regulators are used in a wide variety of industrial environments around the world. They must often provide uncompromising performance in harsh conditions, from high temperatur...
