This document discusses different types of liquid storage structures or water tanks. It covers the following key points:
- Water tanks can be categorized based on their placement (resting on ground, underground, or elevated) or shape (circular, rectangular, spherical, etc.).
- Circular tanks resting on the ground are further divided based on whether the base is flexible or rigid. A flexible base allows the tank diameter to increase at the bottom due to hydrostatic pressure, while a rigid base prevents movement.
- Proper cement content between 330-530 kg/m3 is recommended for water tanks to reduce shrinkage and ensure the structure is crack-free with no leakage.
Earthen dams, also known as earth-fill dams or embankment dams, are constructed by compacting successive layers of earth and other impermeable materials. They are commonly used due to their low construction cost and ability to be adapted to weak foundations. Earthen dams are built to supply drinking water, control floods, enable irrigation, produce hydroelectric power, and more. Proper design and construction techniques are required to ensure stability, control seepage, provide adequate spillway capacity, and meet other safety requirements. While dams provide important benefits, they can also negatively impact the environment through habitat loss, water quality changes, and other effects.

The document presents a numerical study investigating the effects of dimples on the heat transfer and flow characteristics inside a tube. Computational fluid dynamics simulations are performed for smooth tubes and tubes with inward- and outward-facing dimples at Reynolds numbers of 2500, 5000, and 7500. The simulations analyze the velocity streamlines, temperature distributions, and heat transfer coefficients. Preliminary results show that maximum velocity occurs in the center of all tube types, while temperature is highest near the walls. Tubes with dimples demonstrate enhanced heat transfer compared to smooth tubes. Further analysis of heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics is needed to assess the influence of dimples.

Modelling and Stress Analysis of the Pig Loop Module of a Piping System.IJRES Journal
油
The failure of any piping system depends on the stress analysis that was performed during the engineering design of the piping system. In designing the pig loop of a submarine manifold to be used in area Y of Niger delta in Nigeria, a proper analysis of the load to which the system could be subjected was carried out using a stress analysis software - ''Triflex piping solutions.'' We employed ASME B31.8 piping code. Various stress values and deflections were analysed at each node to ensure that the design will be on a safe operating condition. Stress utilization was checked for hoop and longitudinal stresses for various scenarios and the worst case scenario was determined. The maximum stress utilization for the worst case scenario was found to be within the limit and thereby meeting with the safety requirement.

IRJET- Case Study of RCC Structure with the Help of Non Destructive TestingIRJET Journal
油
This document presents a case study on using non-destructive testing (NDT) methods to evaluate the quality of a 20-year-old reinforced concrete structure. Various NDT methods were used including ultrasonic pulse velocity testing, carbonation testing, half-cell potential testing, and rebound hammer testing. The results found that ultrasonic pulse velocity readings indicated doubtful concrete quality throughout the structure. Half-cell potential testing showed a 50% probability of corrosion in all structural elements. Carbonation testing revealed that 19 elements had low carbonation depth but 7 elements showed carbonation reaching the steel reinforcement. The study concluded that elements with high carbonation required repair to prevent corrosion of the reinforcement.

- Net Present Value (NPV) is Positive
- Benefit Cost Ratio (BCR) > 1
In Pirojpur to Tajpur Pipeline Construction Project,
BCR (Financial) = 1.04
BCR (Economic) = 1.50
IRR (Financial) = 16.68 %
IRR (Economic) = 25.91 %
NPV = (+)
So the project is both financially and economically feasible.
15. Major steps for pipeline Construction
Equipment Selection
It is one of the most important steps in pipeline
construction works. These equipments must be
selected as per design requirement. The selected
equipments should be cost effective and efficient in
work.
16. ROW Clearing And Grading
ROW is cleared of barriers and graded for movement of
construction equipment, materials and ultimately construction of
pipeline. Bulldozer & Excavator is used to clearing & grading of
ROW
17. Stringing the Pipe Along ROW
Stringing is aligning the pipe along the ROW. It is done using
share leg.
18. Welding Operation
Welding is a fabrication or sculptural process that joins
materials, usually metals or thermoplastics, by causing
coalescence.
19. NDT of Welding Joints
Non-destructive testing (NDT) is the use of noninvasive
techniques to determine the integrity of a material,
component or structure or quantitatively measure some
characteristic of an object. i.e. Inspect or measure without
doing harm.
20. Coating and Wrapping of pipes
After welding and cleaning
the upper surface of pipe the,
the whole pipe is coated with
a chemical called primer.
Then it is wrapped with tape.
21. Trenching Operation
A trench, or ditch, must be dug to allow the pipe to bury the
pipe. It is usually made to one side of the center of the ROW.
22. Canal Crossing
Crossing is required when canal or river exist on the way of pipeline
route. Here a concrete support is used to protect the pipe from water flow.
This concrete support is called RCC. It is made by the following ratio of
rod, cement and concrete
Rod : Concrete : Cement = 1:2:4
23. Holiday Test
Holiday test is one of the non-destructive test method
applied on protective coatings to detect unacceptable
discontinuities such as pinholes and voids. Basically two
types of holiday detectors are used which are following
Low-voltage holiday detector High-voltage holiday detector
24. Pigging
Pigging is a maintenance operation of pipeline which includes
cleaning and inspecting the line. This operation is done by using
devices known as pigs. This is accomplished by inserting the
pig into a pig launcher and receiving it in pig receiver.
25. Hydrostatic Test
A hydrostatic test is performed to determine the integrity and
soundness of pressure vessels and piping joints. It is done
after pigging.
26. Pipeline Drying
Prior to the commissioning the pipeline should be dry up.
Attaining the correct dryness level can help inhibit
microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC), hydrates and other
issues. This operation is done by foam pig launching through
the pipe.
27. Lowering and Backfilling
Pipe joint is lowered to the trench using sideboom. After laying
the pipe in the trench or ditch, it is filled by the overburden
which is called backfilling.
28. Pipeline Commissioning
Commissioning involves injecting natural gas into the
pipeline. The commissioning plan contains the
sequence of measures together with the safety
precautions to be adhered to. Gassing-up with inert
gas (nitrogen) is necessary in the event of immediate
tie-in into natural gas network in order to maintain a
slight gauge pressure inside the pipeline as opposed
to atmospheric pressure until the pipeline can be
finally tied into the network.
29. Gas Network Simulation and Analysis
Gas networks simulation or Gas Pipeline Simulation is
a process of defining the mathematical model of the
gas transport and distribution systems, which are
usually composed of highly integrated pipe network
operating over a wide range of pressures. Simulation
allows to predict the behavior of gas network systems
under different conditions. Such predictions can be
effectively used to guide decisions regarding the
design and operation of the real system.
30. Simulation Model Development
A model is similar to but simpler than the system it represents. Model
represents the characteristics or behavior of the real-world or system. It
should not be complex.
