I applied via Referral and was interviewed in Aug 2023. There were 2 interview rounds.
BFP section and discharge line can be identified by looking at the pipe size, location, and direction of flow.
Check the pipe size - BFP section typically has larger diameter pipes compared to discharge lines.
Look at the location - BFP section is usually located near the pump or boiler room.
Check the direction of flow - BFP section will have pipes leading towards the pump or boiler.
Consider any labels or markings on the...
Major losses in boiler refer to energy losses that occur during the operation of a boiler due to various factors.
Major losses in boiler include radiation losses, convection losses, and exhaust gas losses.
Radiation losses occur due to heat being lost through the boiler walls and surroundings.
Convection losses happen when hot gases leave the boiler without transferring all their heat to the water.
Exhaust gas losses occur...
Typically, a boiler will have multiple safety valves installed for redundancy and safety purposes.
Boilers usually have at least two safety valves for redundancy in case one fails.
The number of safety valves can vary depending on the size and type of boiler.
Larger industrial boilers may have multiple safety valves to ensure proper pressure relief.
Some boilers may have three or more safety valves for added safety measure
Safety valves with higher pressure to blow are typically set at 10-15% above the operating pressure.
Safety valves with higher pressure to blow are usually set at 10-15% above the operating pressure to ensure they open only in case of overpressure.
For example, if the operating pressure is 100 psi, the safety valve may be set to blow at 110-115 psi.
This ensures that the safety valve only opens when the system is truly at...
The maximum temperature of water in a deareator tank is typically around 105-110 degrees Celsius.
The maximum temperature is important for ensuring proper deaeration of water in the tank.
Exceeding the maximum temperature can lead to damage to the tank and equipment.
Regular monitoring and maintenance are necessary to ensure the temperature stays within the safe range.
The calorific value of fuel is the amount of heat energy released per unit mass of fuel burned.
Calorific value is typically measured in units like kilojoules per kilogram (kJ/kg) or British thermal units per pound (BTU/lb).
Higher calorific value indicates more energy content in the fuel.
Different fuels have different calorific values, for example, coal has a higher calorific value than wood.
Calorific value is important...

Refrigeration cycles are thermodynamic processes used in refrigerators and air conditioners to transfer heat from a low temperature reservoir to a high temperature reservoir.
Refrigeration cycles typically involve four main components: compressor, condenser, expansion valve, and evaporator.
The refrigerant undergoes a cycle of compression, condensation, expansion, and evaporation to absorb heat from the space being coole...

RTD and thermocouple are types of temperature sensors used in various industries.
RTD stands for Resistance Temperature Detector and uses the principle of change in electrical resistance with temperature to measure temperature.
Thermocouple uses the principle of Seebeck effect where a voltage is generated when two dissimilar metals are joined at two junctions and exposed to different temperatures.
RTD is more accurate and...

To identify if a pump is cavitating while working on a DCS panel, you can look for certain indicators.
Monitor the pump's suction pressure. If it is fluctuating or dropping below the specified range, it may indicate cavitation.
Check the pump's discharge pressure. If it is higher than normal, it could be a sign of cavitation.
Listen for unusual noises such as a rattling or grinding sound coming from the pump.
Inspect the p...
