Calculation method for the time required to pressurize a heat exchanger
Thread Content
For a heat exchanger that requires pressure testing to check for leaks, the pressure needs to be raised to 2.65 MPAG. The volume of the heat exchanger is 30 cubic meters. There is a pressure pump with a designed flow rate of 20 M3/H; it is planned to use high-pressure nitrogen to reach a pressure of 2.0 MPA, and then an air compressor to bring the pressure up to the designed level of 2.65 MPAG. How much time will it take to raise the pressure from 2.1 MPAG to 2.65 MPAG?
