Upstream data is data from process units upstream of whatever unit you are concerned with. Usually this includes such properties as temperature, pressure, density, composition, enthalpy, heat capacity, etc.

Do contour lines point upstream or downstream?

upstream


With a centrifugal pump what will a blockage in the discharge or suction side do to the pump amps?

A blockage in the downstream side of the pump could make this pump work harder raising the amps as the pump now has to do more work to get through the line. An upstream blockage would make the pump spin more freely lowering the amps on the pump as it will not be doing any work.

SAE4137 or 34CrMoS4 according to the metric 2009 Misumi, Mechanical Components for Assembly Automation Catalog (www.misumiusa.com), Technical Data section, page 2866.


What is the working principle of orifice meter?

An obstruction (orifice) is placed in a pipe filled with fluid. The pressure of the fluid is measured at two different points: 1) just upstream of the orifice and, 2) close to the contraction of the fluid (vena contracta). The difference in these two pressures is known as differential pressure. The differential pressure across an obstruction (orifice) in a pipe of fluid is proportional to the square of the velocity of the fluid. Many factors associated with the pipe, orifice and fluid affect the measurement. Satisfactory measurement requires steady-state, homogeneous, turbulent flowing fluids. Other properties which affect the measurement include: the ratio of pipe diameter to orifice diameter and the density, temperature, compressibility and viscosity of the fluid.


Where do you get the re factor for explosives?

The RE factor (relative effectiveness) compares a given explosive's energy to TNT, with TNT being assigned a value of 1.0. Composition C4 is about 1.4- pound for pound, it has 40% more energy than TNT. The RE rating of a product would be listed in the manufacturer's information sheet, or taken from a data table for military explosives.
