SUMMARY:Modeling and Mitigating Check Valve Slam - Theory and Applications
DESCRIPTION:Check valves are designed to protect equipment from sustained reverse flow\, but a closing check valve introduces a lurking risk of secondary surge. This webinar will outline considerations for check valve selection such as the type of check valve\, the system potential for reverse flow\, and the deceleration of the system’s fluid. \nAFT will take a look at a slam event using AFT Impulse’s built-in deceleration curves to find which valve will work best in their case. Can’t wait for you to check it out! \nWednesday\, March 1\, 2023 \n10:00 AM – 11:00 AM (MST) \nPresenter: Nick Vastine\, Business Applications Engineer II \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Special Considerations for Valve Losses in Compressible Flow: Cv/Kv & xT
DESCRIPTION:When building models in AFT Arrow\, you may notice the Cv/Kv loss models in valves require extra input\, known as xT. This does not show up in valve models for incompressible flow\, which most people are more comfortable with. ANSI/ISA-75.01.01-2012 defines xT and special considerations for compressible flow\, and gives methods for control valve sizing. AFT has equations from that standard native in Arrow’s regular valves and control valves. \nJoin Applied Flow Technology for the webinar to walk away with understanding these various terms and how they apply in Arrow. They will also go through what to do when you may not have the appropriate data. \nPresenter: Walt Prentice\, Business Applications Engineer II \nWednesday\, March 15\, 2023 \n10:00 AM – 11:00 AM (MST) \nRegister Here

This unique two-day session combines our two highly successful training programs into one comprehensive two-day forum. Day one will be a general session for all attendees. Day two will break out into two separate tracks… Pumping Systems Training and Controls Training. For those of you who are looking to the next level in training\, we offer two “200 Level” training courses and a New Hands-on Control Panel Assembly and Troubleshooting course. \nKeynote presentation will be Tom Decker \nIn 2016 and after a career spanning more than four decades\, Tom Decker saddled up his horse\, rode into the sunset\, and crossed full-time employment for large diversified engineering and construction companies off his bucket list. Following his formal retirement\, Tom is now heading up Thomas E. Decker Consulting based in Northern Virginia and provides market strategy and business management expertise to water and wastewater sector companies\, organizations\, and agencies. \nPrior to becoming “the best boss he has ever worked for”\, Tom was a vice president and geographic area leader for Brown and Caldwell\, a vice president\, regional business group manager\, and principal program manager with CH2M HILL\, a vice president and business development director with the Parsons Corporation and a partner and director of marketing for the Infrastructure Business of Black & Veatch. \nHe has served on the board of directors of the Water Environment Federation and the American Academy of Environmental Engineers and Scientists and is a past president of the Missouri Water Environment Association. \nDuring his long and eventful engagement in the water and wastewater field\, he has led worldwide and national business development operations\, directed numerous growth initiatives ranging from geographic expansions to acquisitions of companies\, orchestrated “an impossible to count” number of direct sales efforts for engineering and construction services\, developed strategic plans for business units\, departments\, and individual service lines\, directed business unit operations\, led business planning efforts for water and wastewater utilities\, and has been a program manager for large capital improvement programs. At one point in his career\, he even operated wastewater treatment plants. \nBecause of this very expansive background\, he has comprehensive and unique grasp of the business of water. He is a frequent speaker to a variety of trade and professional groups on the issues and trends impacting the water and wastewater marketplace. \nHe is a registered professional engineer in multiple states and is a Board-Certified Environmental Engineer by the American Academy of Environmental Engineers and Scientists.
