PIPE-FLO Feature of the Month
Finding System Bottlenecks
This month’s article with show how PIPE-FLO can be used to find system bottlenecks and save money in pumping costs.
As process loads increase additional fluid is pumped through the system. Without a clear picture of the entire piping system you can quickly pay a high price in pumping cost to get a small increase in flow rate. This study is based on an analysis of a reclaim water pump system at a nickel mining operation. You will see how a quick piping system model allowed the plant engineer to save over $250,000 per year in pumping costs.

For more information and detailed instructions for using PIPE-FLO to find system bottlenecks read the entire article at http://www.eng-software.com/kb/item.aspx?article=1290.
