Pressure relief valve

Mr. Tirk, my friend, sale engineer in safety valve business used to talk to me about using computer software for valve selection. Both of us don’t know how this software works. He told me that it is not important to know, because he wanted to go further in a business field not an engineering field. However, for me I think it’s important.



The Crosby Pressure Relief Valve Engineering Handbook contains important technical information relating to pressure relief valves. I recommend people who related to pressure relief valve to read it.

Crosby Valve Inc. is a leading worldwide supplier of pressure relieving products and related accessories and services, focusing on the chemical, hydrocarbon processing, refining, and power and transportation industries. This handbook has been designed to provide a service to Crosby’s customers by presenting reference data and technical recommendations about sizing, selecting, testing, installing and operating pressure relief valves.

This handbook contains seven chapters. My recommend chapter is chapter two, fundamental of pressure relief valve design, this chapter tells about every component inside pressure relief valve and how it operates. Next is chapter five and six, valve sizing and selection, those chapters contain equation and example about how to sizing safety for different working fluid and conditions.

Foobar

Here is my first article in this blog. I will write about 'foobar’.

It's been a long time for me about using 'Winamp' as music player in my PC. Nowday, newest version of winamp is not good as version 2.xx. When I use winamp 3.xx for a first time, it makes me sick. I have to wait for long after clicking on my mp3 file, and then I can hear music. This problem is become my biggest problem when I start to use bit-comet. I can’t listen to music while I use it. So, my friend Jimi introduces me ‘Foobar’, an open source music player software. First time I launch foobar, it make me disappoint. It looks very simple but I admit that it launch faster than winamp. After searching for more information about foobar from google, I finally find the ways to make foobar look better than winamp. As I told you, foobar is an open source software. You can change its interface by changing its code or download foobar theme. Also, I found a lot of dll files that can improve my foobar i.e. show what I’m listening in MSN, show album cover when listening, etc. I heard that some problem of winamp has been solve in version 5.xx but I’m not check it out yet.

Here is link for ‘foobar dll files’.
