Common Gas & Oil Seal Failure Causes
Why is Gas & Oil Seal Failure Quite Common? Only a number of engineering elements are expected to operate under more difficult conditions than those of Gas & Oil Installations. The environments included in Gas & Oil production consist of severe stresses, temperatures, and chemical media. Additionally, they place rigid requirements on equipment, which must be accurately designed to guarantee […]

Read MoreHow important is FEA Simulation in Gas & Oil
FEA Simulation in Gas & Oil What is FEA Simulation Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a computer-based manipulation that evaluates how elastomer components are prone to function in real-life installations. This innovative method can ascertain how exposure to extreme temperatures and pressures and aggressive chemical circumstances can influence the components. Adequate use of FEA Simulation can eliminate the necessity for […]

Read MoreFinite Element Analysis (FEA)
Anticipative behavioural techniques to imitate real-life settings Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a computer-based manipulation. It is used to examine engineering applications and sealing elements to perceive their behaviour under several circumstances. This analysis, therefore, entails Finite Element Modelling (FEM). FEM is frequently used for new element design, or to improve an existing product design. Furthermore, virtual medium allows engineers to […]
