SCOPE This section outlines the general guidelines for hydraulic calculation of piping systems. It is intended to provide a consistent approach to hydraulic calculations as performed by Process Engineers / Technical Professionals, but not to cover every special case one may encounter. Guidelines for calculating pressure drop through equipment such as trays, packings and reactors are included in other guidelines.
2.0
HYDRAULICS CALCULATION Mustang has several line sizing programs available in myMustang. Refer to the Sizing page within the Process portal. Regardless of the program or method selected, there are independent variables to consider. 2.1 Pressure Drop Criteria Absolute Roughness Factor: use 0.00015 ft for commercial steel pipe. For non-steel pipe, use factors given in the Fluid Flow section of the GPSA Engineering Data Book [2]. Pipe Age Factor: use 1.2 unless noted otherwise in the design basis for a specific project. For vapor-liquid mixed phase, the Hughmark "in-place density may be used, where available as an option, for calculating static head. 2.2 Equivalent Length of Valves and Fitting Use the table shown as Figure 17-4 in the GPSA Engineering Data Book [2]. Spreadsheet templates which use average L/D ratios and yield essentially the same equivalent lengths may also be used. Optionally, Crane No. 410 [1] provides equations for calculating valve and fitting losses as velocity head equivalents. 2.3 Flow Regimes of Vapor-Liquid Mixed Phase Flow Horizontal flow: Use Baker chart shown in Figure 1. Vertical flow: Use the Aziz Chart, Figure 2, via Reference 2. This figure is considered to be conservative and valid for pressure up to 150 psig, which covers the range of concern.

LINE SIZING CRITERIA Tables 1, 2, and 3 in Appendix B give some typical "rules of thumb" for line sizing. Although these rules are applicable to most situations, they may not be suitable in all cases. For critical circuits, hydraulics should be checked in detail to confirm the available pressure drop regardless of whether the lines meet rules-of-thumb criteria. In addition, the optimum line size is determined by balancing the capital cost of the piping system against the operating cost of pumps and/or compressors. To minimize initial investment, special attention should be given to expensive lines, for example:
MUSTANG Process Plants Process Design Guidelines: Hydraulics and Line Sizing Alloy pipe Carbon steel pipe larger than 12 Piping system involving many valves and fitting such as dryers Lines longer than 500 ft
In corrosive and erosive environments, however, the line shall be sized based on maximum velocity considerations to provide satisfactory service life. When a new or unfamiliar service is encountered, the Process Design Manager shall be consulted for line sizing criteria as well as its material selection. 4.0 PRELIMINARY ESTIMATE OF EQUIVALENT LENGTH The following data can be used for preliminary estimates of equivalent length when detail piping information, such as isometrics, is not available. 4.1 Pump Discharge and Compressor Circuit Piping Size, inches 1-1/2 2 3 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 24 On-site L eq./L straight 1.30 1.41 1.57 1.74 2.12 2.43 2.82 3.15 3.41 3.75 4.14 4.51 5.19 Off-site L eq./L straight 1.09 1.14 1.18 1.23 1.36 1.42 1.55 1.65 1.74 1.83 1.92 2.06 2.24
These typically conservative equivalent length ratios (to be used for budget estimates) only are estimated based on the following assumptions: For on-site systems: each 100 feet of piping having one fully open gate valve, one swing check valve, one hard tee and four long radius elbows. For offsite systems: each 100 feet of piping with one fully open gate valve and four long radius elbows.

If the reboiler is spring supported, the equivalent length can be substantially reduced. 4.3 Pump Suction Line from Drums or Tower Bottoms Pipe Size, inches through 6" 8" 12 14" and larger Notes: If a permanent strainer is installed in the pump suction line, add 200 ft of equivalent length to calculate the pressure drop through the strainer. If a temporary strainer is used, the Process Engineer / Technical Professional should clarify with client if it will stay in place during normal operation. The equivalent length for pump suction taken from a tower side draw-off can be substantially higher than those shown above. Typical Equivalent Length, ft 300 400 250 pipe diameters + 150

SPECIAL HYDRAULICS CALCULATIONS 5.1 Thermosyphon Reboiler Circuits The worksheet shown on Figure 3 should be used to analyze the reboiler circuit hydraulics for thermosyphon reboilers. Design considerations for the thermosyphon reboiler system are as follows: Do not use the usual age factor of 1.2 for line friction loss. Instead, use a safety factor of 2 for line friction loss and allowable total reboiler pressure drop when using homogenous mixed phase density and a safety factor of 1.5 when using Hughmark in-place density, whichever is more conservative. The criteria may be relaxed for revamp projects or those systems having high densities in the reboiler return line such as a deethanizer tower reboiler.
Use the percent vaporization specified in the reboiler data sheet. Recirculating thermosyphon reboilers are generally designed for 30 wt% vaporization. Once-through thermosyphon reboilers can have up to 50 wt% vaporization. Process Engineer / Technical Professional should check the actual operating pressure of the reboiler if the mean temperature difference between the heating medium and circulation fluid is sensitive to pressure variation. The pressure of the boiling medium in the thermosyphon reboiler is equal to the tower operating pressure plus riser losses including static head based on in-place density. The reboiler return line should be sized to avoid slugging problems. However, this may not always be possible without an excessive elevation of skirt height, especially for light ends towers operated at high pressure. It is generally recognized that towers operated above a certain operating pressure (subject to engineering judgment), slug flow may not exist or is not detrimental to a reboiler/tower operation.
5.2
Kettle Reboiler Circuits The worksheet shown on Figure 4 should be used for hydraulic calculations associated with kettle reboiler circuits. Design considerations for the kettle reboiler system are as follows: Use a safety factor of 1.5 for line friction loss and allowable total reboiler pressure drop. If the product from the kettle reboiler flows to a pump suction, the elevation of kettle should also satisfy pump NPSH requirement. If the product from the kettle reboiler flows to a heat exchanger first, free drain from the kettle to exchanger is preferred. This is not a mandatory requirement if the product is of multi-component mixtures with wide boiling ranges. However, the pipe length and elevation rise shall be minimized.
5.3
Pump NPSH and Pump Hydraulics Calculations Refer to Pumps" [3] for calculation guidelines and procedures.
5.4
Vacuum Tower Transfer Line Sizing Transfer lines in crude vacuum units are typically very large and are constructed of expensive alloy material. It is imperative that the process designer perform a detailed hydraulic calculation to select the smallest line size. The maximum velocity should be limited to 90% of sonic velocity. It usually occurs at the inlet nozzle to the vacuum tower. Sonic velocity is expressed as: VS = 68.1(kP/)1/2 VS k P sonic velocity, ft/s the specific heat ratio, Cp/Cv the absolute pressure, psia the homogeneous mixed phase density, lb/ft3
The total pressure drop from the heater outlet to the tower inlet is limited by the heater outlet temperature, which is typically 25F higher than the flash zone temperature and
should generally be limited to 780F maximum due to the concern of excessive cracking and coking. The design of the transfer line may proceed as follows: Starting at the flash zone condition, run a series of adiabatic flashes on the vacuum tower charge, with a pressure increment of approximately 25% of the downstream absolute pressure. Select the transfer line size based on the sonic velocity limitation stated above. Divide the line into several segments. Calculate or estimate the equivalent length of each segment. Start from the tower inlet nozzle, calculate the pressure drop in each line segment using the following equation:
P =
avg V2 V1 L + (P / 100) frict 2g 144 100

2 2
Acceleration Loss P V1 V2 (P/100)frict L g Pavg
Friction Pressure Drop total pressure drop, psi upstream velocity, ft/s downstream velocity, ft/s friction pressure drop, psi/100 ft total equivalent length, ft 32.2 ft/s2 average mixed phase density, lb/ft3
The acceleration loss in vacuum service can be a significant part of the total pressure drop and should not be neglected. Since the amount of flashing depends on the pressure, the above calculations are iterative. The pressure drop between the heater outlet and flash zone (typically 3 psi) is the sum of the pressure drops for all line segments. The heater outlet temperature can then be obtained from the pressure-temperature relationship which is generated from the adiabatic flashes in step (a). If the calculated heater outlet temperature exceeds the allowable maximum, a larger transfer line is selected and steps a. through d. are repeated until the temperature limitation is satisfied. It should be noted that this rarely occurs unless the transfer line is unusually long or the flash zone temperature already approaches the maximum allowable temperature. If the calculated heater outlet temperature is more than 10F lower than the allowable maximum, a reduction in the line size between the tower and furnace may be justified. The Process Engineer / Technical Professional should check the sonic velocity criteria at the point of line size reduction.

MUSTANG Process Plants Process Design Guidelines: Hydraulics and Line Sizing Notes for Tables 1, 2, and 3:
1) Saturated liquid draw-off from vessel should be adequately sized to avoid vaporization and vortexing at the draw-off nozzle. The maximum allowable velocity is calculated as Vmax Vmax hmin = : : 3.858 (hmin) or hmin = (Vmax / 3.858)2 maximum allowable velocity through the draw-off nozzle, ft/s the liquid static head above the centerline of draw-off nozzle, ft
Equation for Vmax is valid only when the liquid head is at least one-half of the nozzle diameter above the top edge of draw-off nozzle. The depth of draw-off sump should be a minimum of 1 times the nozzle diameter. See Mustang Process Design Guidelines, Section B, Towers. The line should turn down immediately and should be a minimum of 6 ft vertical drop before being swaged down to calculated line sizes. 2) Process engineer should confirm the total pressure drop based on actual piping or plot layouts especially if high P/100 ft is used to size long lines. 3) Typically, the acid strength ranges from 93% to 99% in the Alky unit. Selection of piping materials depends on factors including size, velocity, flow turbulence and temperature. Consult with a Sr. level Process Engineer about the material selection and allowable velocity criteria. For further details, see Mustang Process Design Guidelines, Section M, Materials of Construction. 4) Stainless steel pipe is commonly used in areas where acid gas is flashed out of rich amine solution. However, for long runs, heavy wall carbon steel pipe may be used in lieu of stainless steel. 5) The line size and piping layout may be dictated by the compressor acoustic analog study. 6) If inlet and discharge nozzles are oriented normal to compressor shaft and there are three diameters of straight pipe just ahead of compressor inlet, the maximum velocity in the inlet is Vmax Vmax T M = : : : (995 T/M)1/2 maximum allowable velocity in the suction of centrifugal compressor, ft/s inlet temperature, OR gas molecular weight
Vmax will be lower if the inlet line has less than three pipe diameters of straight run pipe. A review of inlet piping systems as related to compressor performance is presented in Reference 5. 7) In general, the vapor-liquid mixed phase line should be sized to avoid the slug flow. Wherever this becomes impractical and results in excessive pressure drop, a Sr. level Process Engineer should be consulted.
