  1. Fluid Properties Con’tPressure Temperature and Pressure are directly proportional to one another

  2. Pressure How is it measured in process industry?

  3. Pressure • How is it measured in process industry? • PSIG – Pounds per Square Inch Gauge

  4. Pressure • How is it measured in process industry? • PSIG – Pounds per Square Inch Gauge • Pressure within a system without taking into account for atmospheric pressure

  5. Pressure • How is it measured in process industry? • PSIG – Pounds per Square Inch Gauge • Pressure within a system without taking into account for atmospheric pressure • PSIA – Pounds per Square Inch Absolute

  6. Pressure • How is it measured in process industry? • PSIG – Pounds per Square Inch Gauge • Pressure within a system without taking into account for atmospheric pressure • PSIA – Pounds per Square Inch Absolute • This is the SUM of the pressure within the system and the atmospheric pressure

  7. Pressure • How is it measured in process industry? • PSIG – Pounds per Square Inch Gauge • Pressure within a system without taking into account for atmospheric pressure • PSIA – Pounds per Square Inch Absolute • This is the SUM of the pressure within the system and the atmospheric pressure • Atmospheric pressure is 14.7 psi @ sea level

  8. Pressure of Fluids So what affects the pressure of a fluid?

  9. Pressure of Fluids • So what affects the pressure of a fluid? • Temperature -

  10. Pressure of Fluids • So what affects the pressure of a fluid? • Temperature and pressure are Directly proportional to each other. So what does that mean?

  11. Pressure of Fluids • So what affects the pressure of a fluid? • Temperature and pressure are Directly proportional to each other. So what does that mean? • As temperature increases so does pressure and if temperature decreases so too does pressure. Example

  12. Pressure of Fluids • So what affects the pressure of a fluid? • Temperature and pressure are Directly proportional to each other. So what does that mean? • As temperature increases so does pressure and if temperature decreases so too does pressure • Volume is indirectly proportional to both temperature and pressure. So what does that mean?

  13. Pressure of Fluids • So what affects the pressure of a fluid? • Temperature and pressure are Directly proportional to each other. So what does that mean? • As temperature increases so does pressure and if temperature decreases so too does pressure • Volume is indirectly proportional to both temperature and pressure. So what does that mean? • As volume is decreased temperature and pressure will increase and if volume is increased then temperature and pressure will decrease

  14. Gravity of Fluids Gravity – expresses the weight of a fluid

  15. Gravity of Fluids • Gravity – expresses the weight of a fluid • Liquid densities are typically compared to water

  16. Gravity of Fluids • Gravity – expresses the weight of a fluid • Liquid densities are typically compared to water • API (American Petroleum Institute) Gravity measures liquid hydrocarbon densities to water

  17. Gravity of Fluids • Gravity – expresses the weight of a fluid • Liquid densities are typically compared to water • API (American Petroleum Institute) Gravity measures liquid hydrocarbon densities to water • Gas or vapor densities are compared to air

  18. Gravity of Fluids • Gravity – expresses the weight of a fluid • Liquid densities are typically compared to water • API (American Petroleum Institute) Gravity measures liquid hydrocarbon densities to water • Gas or vapor densities are compared to air Specific Gravity – is a comparison of the fluid density of compound to the fluid density of a different compound that are both at the same temperature

  19. Miscibility of Fluids Miscible – liquids of different specific gravities are able to form a mixture.

  20. Miscibility of Fluids Miscible – liquids of different specific gravities are able to form a mixture. Immiscible – liquids of differing specific gravities that are not capable of mixing

  21. Miscibility of Fluids • Miscible – liquids of different specific gravities are able to form a mixture. • Immiscible – liquids of differing specific gravities that are not capable of mixing • Solubility – the ability of a compound to dissolve in a given solvent

  22. Miscibility of Fluids • Miscible – liquids of different specific gravities are able to form a mixture. • Immiscible – liquids of differing specific gravities that are not capable of mixing • Solubility – the ability of a compound to dissolve in a given solvent • Things to keep in mind:

  23. Miscibility of Fluids • Miscible – liquids of different specific gravities are able to form a mixture. • Immiscible – liquids of differing specific gravities that are not capable of mixing • Solubility – the ability of a compound to dissolve in a given solvent • Things to keep in mind: • Water has a high solubility with natural gas that can cause huge problems in the processing plant = can form HYDRATES

  24. Miscibility of Fluids • Miscible – liquids of different specific gravities are able to form a mixture. • Immiscible – liquids of differing specific gravities that are not capable of mixing • Solubility – the ability of a compound to dissolve in a given solvent • Things to keep in mind: • Water has a high solubility with natural gas that can cause huge problems in the processing plant = can form HYDRATES • Problems with Clogging equipment and lines Ex p. 7 • ALL HYDROCARBON COMPOUNDS a miscible with each other

  25. Miscibility of Fluids • Miscible – liquids of different specific gravities are able to form a mixture. • Immiscible – liquids of differing specific gravities that are not capable of mixing • Solubility – the ability of a compound to dissolve in a given solvent • Things to keep in mind: • Water has a high solubility with natural gas that can cause huge problems in the processing plant = can form HYDRATES • ALL HYDROCARBON COMPOUNDS a miscible with each other • However they are not miscible with GLYCOL
