Wireless Temperature Monitoring and Control
Jim Cahill
Wireless sensors make sense in many monitoring and even some control applications. In a Food Engineering article, Making the argument for wireless temperature solutions , experts from several instrumentation and control suppliers offered their thoughts on where wireless temperature devices make sense. Emerson’s Kevin Stultz was one of these experts who shared his thoughts. Kevin first explained that: …Rosemount temperature…

Streamlining Thermowell Design and Selection
Jim Cahill
Temperature is a critical measurement for optimal control in many industries such as electrical power generation, oil & gas production, and chemical manufacturing to name a few. Thermowells installed into the piping and vessels protect the temperature transmitters from the extreme fluid temperatures and flow rates. Failures can result in process leakage, equipment damage and potential personnel injuries. Thermowell…

Overcoming Challenging Temperature Measurements
Jim Cahill
Shane Hale Unlike pressure and flow measurement, temperature measurement can be much more complex given what is being measured. Fluids have thermal inertia characteristics which determine their temperature rate of change. In a Process Heating article, Instrumentation Solves Temperature Measurement and Control Problems , Emerson’s Shane Hale describes some of these challenges and how manufacturers and producers are overcoming…

Considerations in Temperature Measurement Selection
Jim Cahill
When it comes to measuring temperature, there are a multitude of ways to do this. Do-it-yourselfers might use simple RTD or thermocouple sensors right into a microcontroller and display to provide basic temperature readings for their grills and BBQ pits. Or they could buy a ready-made transmitter and software to send the readings to their smart phones. Todd Olin Neil Larson For industrial process manufacturers and…

Power Generation Improved Steam Temperature Control
Jim Cahill
Emerson’s Jeff Williams presented, Holistic Approach to Steam Temperature Control, at the 2018 Ovation Users’ Group Conference. Jeff opened describing the trend of plants being started and operated more frequently than in the past due to intermittent sources of renewable energy sources on the grid. A key challenge to this mode of operation is to maintain consistent superheat temperature in this transient environment…

Reduce Boiler Tube Leaks with Better Steam Temperature Control
Jim Cahill
As the contribution of renewable energy sources grow on electrical power grids, so does the cycling its intermittency creates for power producers. This cycling affects steam used to drive the generators. For power stations where the electric generators are steam-driven, this steam is created by coal, nuclear, geothermal, solar thermal, waste incineration and sometimes natural gas. Boiler tube leaks caused by frequent…

Reducing Thermowell Dynamic Stress Forces
Jim Cahill
Thermowells are traditionally a circular cylinder installed into the piping to protect the temperature sensors from the flow. From an Emerson whitepaper, Thermowell Calculations : As a process fluid passes around the thermowell, low pressure vortices are created on the downstream side in laminar, turbulent, and transitional flow. The combination of stresses, generated by the static in-line drag forces from fluid…
