Ideal Process Conditions
Liquids
•
Consistent process composition & temperature
•
Sufficient straight run flow profile (minimizes
turbulence)
•
Recommended minimum of 5 pipe diameters from
any disturbance, preferably 15 pipe diamteres.
Air & Gas
•
Consistent process composition and temperature,
ideally clean and dry but not necessarily so long as
process is consistent.
