Simply put, I could not have done this work without the lots of help I received cheerfully from
whole IKAN Engineering Services Private Ltd. The work culture in IKAN really motivates.
Everybody is such a friendly and cheerful companion here that work stress is never comes in
way. I would specially like to thank Dy. Manager Mr. Afzal for providing the nice ideas to
work upon. Not only did they advise me, but listening to their discussions in Specific
departments meeting have evoked a good interest in Image analysis.

Gate valve is mostly used, flat, vertical wedge, or gate, that slides up on down as the valves
hand wheel is turned, designed to be either fully opened or closed, the gate valve should not be
operated in a partially opened/closed position.
2.13.4 Plug valve
Plug valve is used in low pressure application usually in gas service, quarter of the turn
make valve full open/ full close, sealing is done to avoid leakage.
2.13.5 BallValve
Ball valve can be seem in household applications, quarter of the turn make valve full
open/full close, disc is made in the type of ball, it is inexpensive valve used in low flow
application.
Fig (3.7)
2.13.6 Globevalve
Used for throttling process, the design of the globe valve body forces the commodity to change
direction with in the valve itself. This change in the direction creates substantial pressure drop
and turbulence. The globe valve is therefore not recommended when flow resistance and
pressure drop area voided.
2.13.7 ButterflyValve
Quarter of the turn make valve full open/ full close, used mostly for water
service.
The butterfly uses a circular plate or wafer operated by a wrench to control

2.18 Inspection techniques
It can be defined as the process of inspecting, testing, or evaluating materials, components
or assemblies for discontinuities in characteristics without destroying the serviceability of
the part or system part can be reused after inspection.
2.19 RadiographyTest
Industrial radiography is a method of non-destructive testingwhere many types of
manufactured components can be examined to verify the internal structure and integrity of
the specimen. Industrial Radiography can be performed utilizing either X-raysor gammarays.
Both are forms of electromagneticradiation.
This method of weld testing makes use of X-rays, produced by an X-ray tube, or
gamma rays, produced by a radioactive isotope. The basic principle of radiographic
inspection of welds is the same as that for medical radiography. When the X-rays pass
through the welded portion form the material then a bright spots generated on the film, so it
is easy to detect the defected portion in thematerial.
2.19.1 Magnetic ParticleTesting
Magnetic particle Inspection (MPI) is a non-destructive testing (NDT) process for detecting
surface and slightly subsurface discontinuities in ferromagnetic materials such as iron, nickel,
cobalt, and some of their alloys. The process puts a magnetic field into the part.
The piece can be magnetized by direct or indirect magnetization. Direct magnetization occurs
when the electric current is passed through the test object and a magnetic field is formed in
the material. Indirect magnetization occurs when no electric current is passed through the test
object, but a magnetic field is applied from an outside source. The magnetic lines of
force are perpendicular to the direction of the electric current, which may be eitheralternating
current (AC) or some form of direct current (DC) (rectifiedAC).
2.19.2 UltrasonicTesting
Ultrasonic testing (UT) is a family of non-destructive testingtechniques based on the
propagation of ultrasonicwaves in the object or material tested. In most common UT
applications, very short ultrasonic pulse-waves with center frequencies ranging from 0.1-15
MHz, and occasionally up to 50 MHz, are transmitted into materials to detect internal flaws
or to characterize materials. A common example is ultrasonic thickness measurement, which
tests the thickness of the test object, for example, to monitor pipe workcorrosion.
2.19.3 Visual Testing
Visual Inspection, used in maintenance of facilities, mean inspection of equipment and
structures using either or all of raw human senses such as vision, hearing, touch and smell
and/or any non-specialized inspection equipment.
2.20 Welding
Welding is a process in which the metals parts are join together by heating the surfaces
to the point of melting with an electric arc basically it is a way to make high strength joints
between two or more parts, requires a high degree of skills.
2.20.1 Weld Bead
A deposit of filler metal from a single welding pass is known as welding bead.
2.20.2 Electric Arc WeldingProcesses
2.20.3 Non-consumable Electrode Arc WeldingProcesses
1. Gas-Tungsten ArcWelding
2. Plasma ArcWelding
2.20.4 Consumable Electrode Arc Welding Processes

2. Shielded-Metal ArcWelding
3. Flux-Cored ArcWelding
4. Submerged ArcWelding
2.21 Types of WeldJoints
2.21.1 ButtJoint
A butt weld or a square groove, Is the most common and easiest to use. Consisting of
two flat pieces that are parallel to one another, it also is an economical option. It is the
universally used method of joining a pipe to itself, as well as flanges, valves, fittings, or other
equipment.
2.21.2 CornerJoint
A corner weld is a type that is between two metals parts and is located at right angle
to each other in the form of L. As the name indicates, it is used to connect two pieces
together, forming acorner.
2.21.3 Edge Joint
Edge welding joints, a groove type of weld, are placed side by side and welded on the
same edge. They are the most commonly replaced type of joints due to build up accumulating
on the edges. They are often applied to parts of sheet metal that have edges flanging up or
formed at a place where a weld must be made to join two adjacent pieces together.
2.21.4 Lap Joint
This is formed when two pieces are placed atop each other while also over lapping
each other for a certain distance along the edge. Considered a fillet type of a welding joint,
the weld can be made on one or both sides, depending upon the welding symbol or drawing
requirements. It is most often used to join two pieces together with differing levels of
thickness.
2.21.5 Teejoints
Tee joints, considered a fillet type of weld, form when two members intersect at 90°
resulting in the edges coming together in the middle of a component or plate. It may also be
formed when a tube or pipe is placed on a base-plate.

Cutting Plan
2.31 StandardPlate
Length = 12000mm Width = 2500mm Thickness = 36mm
To develop the blank flat length for a cylinder rolled from sheet or plate is quite
simple:
(Outside Diameter – Thickness) x 3.1416 = Length of Plate Required (Inside Diameter +
Thickness) x 3.1416 = Length of Plate Required
2.31.2 Calculation for Total PlateLength
(OD – Thickness) .(3.14)
Fig
(1.6)
2.31.3 Remaining PlateDimension
Maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP) is the maximum pressure that the
weakest component of the system can handle. This is based on design codes and back
calculation from the fabrication of the vessel, piping, etc. The MAWP should be
clearly stated for vessels or piping to figure out what pressures the system can
withstand. Note that the MAWP does not remain constant throughout the life of the
system and will reduce due to corrosion (carbon steel), wear and fatigue.
Design Pressure is the maximum pressure that the system that can be exposed to and
sets the system relief valve at the same pressure. This should be below MAWP and
based on company standards can vary from 10% to 25% above the maximum
operating pressure of the system.
Minimum Design Metal Temperature, is the lowest temperature that the vessel can
withstand with the chosen material and thickness. It is a critical factor in designing a
pressure vessel that depends on the environment where the pressure vessel has to be
installed.
To develop the blank flat length for a cylinder rolled from sheet or plate is quite
simple: (Outside Diameter – Thickness) x 3.1416 = Length of Plate Required
(Inside Diameter + Thickness) x 3.1416 = Length of Plate Required
