Piping and Instrument Diagram
The single most important drawing for the installation of piping systems is the Piping and
Instrument Diagram (P&ID). It provides the base design description of the required pipe routing
and sizing, flow direction and slope, instrumentation and controls, insulation, heat tracing, and
equipment and/or instrument references. This provides a road map to finding other drawings,
vendor data, and piping information to properly complete the installation. The P&ID does not
however provide dimensional data or physical locations of any commodities.
The Piping Line List and the Instrument Index are issued documents which often provide this
information.

What should be the radius of long radius elbow?
Answer:
1.5D (Where “D” is the diameter of the pipe)
14. Normally where do we use the following?
i. Eccentric reducers ii)Concentric reducers
Answer:
i. Eccentric reducers = Pump suction to avoid Cavitation, To maintain elevation (BOP) in
rack.
ii. Concentric reducers = Pump discharge, vertical pipeline etc.

-
Concentric reducer is used in pump suction. (Yes / No). Explain.
Answer:
No. Air pockets may form if concentric reducer is used at pump suction, which results in
Cavitation, and cause damage to Pump. To avoid this problem, Eccentric Reducer with
Flat Side Up (FSU)is used in Pump Suction.

-
What do you mean by Cavitation in Pump?
A pump is designed to handle liquid, not vapour. Vapour forms if the pressure in the
pump falls below the liquid’s vapour pressure . The vapour pressure occurs right at the
impeller inlet where a sharp pressure drop occurs. The impeller rapidly builds up the
pressure which collapses vapour bubbles causing cavitation and damage . This is
avoided by maintaining sufficient NPSH.
(Cavitation implies cavities or holes in the fluid we are pumping. These holes can also
be described as bubbles, so cavitation is really about the formation of bubbles and their
collapse. Bubbles form when ever liquid boils. It can be avoided by providing sufficient
NPSH.)

Re: please help me
Soozan
please answer my question. I'm sorry .I know my question dosn't relate to this forum .
but I don't know where I shoud ask my question.
My question: I don't know whether in British and canada universities only seeing the
IELTS certification or not? I mean do they see the results of IELTS via website (online
result).
If there is another websithe which I can ask from them, please tell me.
This question is important for me... Please.....Please.....Please.....

What do you mean by NPSH? How do you calculate it?
NPSH: Net Positive Suction Head. NPSH is the pressure available at the pump suction
after vapour pressure is substarcted.
It is calculated as : Static head + surface pressure head - the vapor pressure of your
product - the friction losses in the piping, valves and fittings.
It thus reflects the amount of head loss that the pump can sustain internally before
vapour pressure is reached.
