Phase Separator
The force required to pull
apart the fabric; this is designated by the measure
of resistance to a testing machine (in pounds) that
a fabric provides before the material breaks. The test
strip width depends on the type of fabric.
TERMINAL PRESSURE
Pressure drop across the
unit at the time system is shut down, or when the maximum
allowable pressure drop is reached.
TERMINAL VELOCITY
Steady velocity achieved
by a falling particle when gravitational forces are
balanced viscous forces.
THREE PHASE SEPARATOR
A vessel used to separate
gas and two immiscible liquids of different densities
(e.g.: gas, water, oil, etc.)
THREE-STAGE FILTER SEPARATORS
Liquid prefilter coalescer
separators containing three kinds or types of replaceable
elements. Air/gas filter separators containing two kinds
of replaceable elements in addition to a first-stage
baffle.
THROUGHPUT
The amount of solution
which will pass through a filter prior to it clogging.
THRU-BOLT
Type of housing closure
using studs and nuts, such as in ASA type flanges.
TORTUOSITY
The ratio of the average
effective flow path length to the minimum theoretical
flow path length (thickness) of a filter medium.
TOTAL DISSOLVED SOLIDS:
Is the portion of the total
solids in the sample that passes through the filter
and is indicated by the increase in weight in the vessel
after the filtrate has been dried at 180ºC.
TUBESHEET
A cartridge or minicyclone
mounting plate.
TURN - OVER
The number of times the
contents of the system pass through a filter per unit
of time.
