Problem 70: The following statement about reciprocating compressors is most FALSE:
(A) Crankshaft counterweights cannot eliminate imbalance forces that cause mechanical vibration.
(B) ...concrete foundations...should increase depth not length or width to meet weight requirements...
(C) A suction scrubber handles liquids injected into the compressor through the inlet gas stream...
(D) Volumetric efficiency is a function of the properties of the gas being compressed.
This answer is found on 8 FAC 8. For further reading see the Guidebook referenced pages from HS2. But it's really common sense; concrete foundations should increase length or width sans depth to meet weight requirements (for soil stability).
Could you post the solution for #71 (stuck pipe depth). I got 6167ft (chose B).
ReplyDeleteI used DTC 6-10 Lfish. Is this correct?
