SYNOPSIS

Chemical and mechanical engineers often have to deal with fluid flow and hydraulic analysis in their projects and technical works. Unfortunately, most people do it incorrectly or without sufficient knowledge, resulting in undersizing and/or oversizing of lines and components in the hydraulic systems, which subsequently lead to problems in operations. The problem with existing training courses is that they focus only on line pressure drop, but fails to address the effects of many important components such as fittings, orifices, and control valves. This intensive LIVE WEBINAR course will also show real examples of hydraulic analysis calculations, thus making it very practical and useful for practicing design engineers.
