Piping equipment – Cocks and Valves

Cocks and Valves

Cocks and valves are used to control or interrupt the flow of a number of fluids at various, often varying, pressures and temperatures

Valves can be categorised according to :

• the fluid flow (full way valve like gate valve or butterfly valve, throttle valve like globe valve)

• the flange configuration (in-line or angle)

• the function (flow diversion, dump, relief, safety)

Piping equipment - Pumps

Pump

A pump is a device which adds to the energy of a liquid or gas causing an increase in its pressure and perhaps a movement of the fluid

Marine pumps fall into two broad classes :

• Displacement (self priming)

The liquid or gas is displaced from the suction to the discharge by the mechanical variation of the volume of a chamber or chambers, with two subcategories :

• Reciprocating pumps

• Rotary pumps

• Centrifugal (must be primed)

Flow through the pump is induced by the centrifugal force imparted to the liquid by the rotation of an impeller or impellers

34Bureau Veritas S.A. internal use only – Pressure vessels – BVN TM PEV1 – V0 – November 2009

Piping equipment - Pumps

Reciprocating Positive Displacement Pump Operation

• During the suction stroke, the piston moves to the left, causing the check valve in the suction line between the reservoir and the pump cylinder to open and admit water from the reservoir.• During the discharge stroke, the piston moves to the right, seating the check valve in the suction line and opening the check valve in the discharge line.

Reciprocating pump

35Bureau Veritas S.A. internal use only – Pressure vessels – BVN TM PEV1 – V0 – November 2009

Piping equipment - Pumps

Rotary pump

Rotary pumps operate on the principle that a rotating vane, screw, or gear traps the liquid in the suction side of the pump casing and forces it to the discharge side of the casing

These pumps are self priming due to their capability of removing air from the suction lines and producing a high suction lift.

Centrifugal pumpA centrifugal pump works on the principle of conversion of the kinetic energy of a flowing fluid (velocity pressure) into static pressure.

The rotation of the pump impeller accelerates the fluid as it passes from the impeller eye (centre) and outward through the impeller vanes to the periphery.

40Bureau Veritas S.A. internal use only – Pressure vessels – BVN TM PEV1 – V0 – November 2009

Piping equipment - Compressors

Compressor There are 4 basic types of air compressors found in marine applications:

1. Reciprocating or piston compressors

2. Rotary screw compressors

3. Sliding vane compressors

4. Centrifugal compressors

41Bureau Veritas S.A. internal use only – Pressure vessels – BVN TM PEV1 – V0 – November 2009

Piping equipment - Compressors

Positive displacement air compressors work by filling an air chamber with air and then reducing the chamber’s volume

Reciprocating or piston compressors are the most common machines

They are positive displacement compressors and can be found in ranges from fractional to very high horsepower

Reciprocating compressors

42Bureau Veritas S.A. internal use only – Pressure vessels – BVN TM PEV1 – V0 – November 2009

Piping equipment - Compressors

Reciprocating compressors work in a very similar manner as does as internal combustion engine but basically in a reverse process

They have cylinders, pistons, crankshafts, valves and housing blocks

43Bureau Veritas S.A. internal use only – Pressure vessels – BVN TM PEV1 – V0 – November 2009

Piping equipment - Compressors

Rotary Screw Compressors work on the principle of air filling the void between two helical mated screws and their housing. As the two helical screws are turned, the volume is reduced resulting in an increase of air pressure

Most rotary screw compressors inject oil into the bearing and compression area The reasons are for cooling, lubrication and creating a seal between screws and the housing wall to reduce internal leakage.

After the compression cycle, the oil and air must be separated before the air can be used by the air system.

Rotary Sliding Vane Compressors are positive displacement compressors.

The compressor pump consists of a rotor, stator, and 8 blades. The slotted rotor is eccentrically arranged within the stator providing a crescent shaped swept area between the intake and exhaust ports.

Oil is injected into the air intake and along the stator walls to cool the air, lubricate the bearings and vanes, and provide a seal

between the vanes and the stator wall.

46Bureau Veritas S.A. internal use only – Pressure vessels – BVN TM PEV1 – V0 – November 2009

Piping equipment - Compressors

After the compression cycle, the oil and air must be separated before the air can be used by the air system

As the rotor turns a single revolution, compression is achieved as the volume goes from a maximum at the intake ports to a minimum at the exhaust port. The vanes are forced outward from within the rotor slots and held against the stator wall by rotational acceleration

Centrifugal Compressors are not positive displacement compressors. They use very high speed spinning impellers (up to 60,000 rpm) to accelerate the air then a diffuser to decelerate the air.

This process, called dynamic compression, uses velocity to cause an increase in pressure. In most Centrifugal compressors, there are several of these impeller/diffuser combinations.

Typically, these machines have intercoolers between each stage to cool the air as well as remove the condensate to avoid impeller damage due to erosion.

Centrifugal purifiers

• To remove certain impurities from fuel and lubricating oils, centrifugal oil/water separators are most widely used

The operating principle for the purifier relies on centrifugal force to separate oil, sludge and water due to their variations of density. A stack of conical plates inside the bowl is rotated by an electric motor.

The oil is forced up from the bottom of the bowl and passes over the rotating plates as it moves through the separator

The sludge and water which are heavier than the oil move to the outside of the bowl, leaving clean oil in the centre
