Kinds of FIV Study
Flow induced vibration is performed in accordance with Energy Institute Guidelines, 2nd edition, Jan. 2018 (Guidelines for the avoidance of vibration induced fatigue failure in process pipework). Study includes below kinds of estimation.
- Flow induced turbulence
- Mechanical excitation
- Pulsation from positive displacement pumps and compressors
- High frequency acoustic excitation
- Surge/Momentum changes due to valve operation
- Cavitation and Flashing
- Likelihood of failure (LOF) assessment
- Quantitative and Qualitative assessment
