I was interviewed before Feb 2024.
Line sizing criteria is based on factors like flow rate, pressure drop, fluid properties, and velocity.
Consider the maximum flow rate the line needs to handle
Calculate the pressure drop allowed for the system
Take into account the properties of the fluid being transported
Ensure the velocity of the fluid is within acceptable limits
Use industry standards and guidelines for sizing criteria
Example: For a water distribution ...
NPSH stands for Net Positive Suction Head and is a critical parameter in pump calculations.
NPSH is the measurement of the amount of suction head required by a pump to prevent cavitation.
It is calculated by subtracting the vapor pressure of the liquid from the total suction head of the pump.
NPSH is important to ensure the pump operates efficiently and does not experience cavitation which can damage the pump.
Low NPSH val...
Suction pressure in a pump can be calculated by adding the atmospheric pressure to the gauge pressure.
Calculate gauge pressure by subtracting the pressure at the pump outlet from the pressure at the pump inlet.
Add the atmospheric pressure to the gauge pressure to get the suction pressure.
Suction Pressure = Atmospheric Pressure + Gauge Pressure
Example: Atmospheric pressure = 14.7 psi, Gauge pressure = 5 psi, Suction pre
If NPSH is negative, increase the suction pressure or decrease the fluid temperature to prevent cavitation.
Increase the suction pressure by using a booster pump or increasing the tank level
Decrease the fluid temperature to increase the vapor pressure margin
Check for any restrictions or blockages in the suction line
Ensure the pump is properly sized for the application
The line size of pump suction is bigger than pump discharge to reduce friction losses and increase efficiency.
Bigger suction line reduces friction losses and allows for easier flow of fluid into the pump
Smaller discharge line increases pressure and helps in maintaining flow rate
This design helps in optimizing pump performance and efficiency
I applied via Naukri.com and was interviewed in Jul 2023. There were 3 interview rounds.
I applied via Walk-in and was interviewed in Aug 2023. There was 1 interview round.
Line sizing involves determining the appropriate diameter of pipes for a given flow rate, while pump hydraulic calculation involves calculating the pump head and power requirements.
Determine the required flow rate for the process
Calculate the pressure drop along the pipeline
Select the appropriate pipe material and schedule based on process conditions
Use hydraulic calculation formulas to determine pump head and power re...

I applied via Referral and was interviewed in Nov 2022. There were 3 interview rounds.
I applied via Referral and was interviewed in Sep 2022. There were 2 interview rounds.
Basic questions related to chemical engineering such as what is the formula of range in cooling tower, pump hydraulics, line sizing.
Read the current affairs from news paper even though these part of interview is not that significant.
Pump hydraulics involves understanding the flow rate, pressure, and head of the fluid being pumped.
Determine the flow rate of the fluid being pumped
Calculate the pressure required to move the fluid through the system
Determine the head required to overcome any elevation changes in the system
Select a pump that can meet the flow rate, pressure, and head requirements
Ensure the pump is properly sized and installed for optim
I applied via Campus Placement and was interviewed in Nov 2021. There were 2 interview rounds.
Questions related to materials engineering and production processes.
Ductile materials have a gradual stress-strain curve while brittle materials have a steep curve.
Modes of heat transfer during boiling of water are conduction, convection, and radiation.
Thin cylinder theory is used to calculate stresses and strains in cylindrical structures.
