Engineering Support

Whether in the planning phase of new construction, or in the midst of a plant-wide turnaround, we can provide engineering services to maximize your plant’s long-term performance and reliability.

Typical front-end services include:

• Systems analysis and optimization
• Material selection and testing
• De-bottlenecking evaluations
• Energy efficiency analysis and optimization
   

• Computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
• Flow visualization
• Erosion modeling
• Rotor dynamics analysis
• Pipe flow analysis
• Thermodynamic modeling
• Computer-aided mechanical design
• State-of-the-art test loops
• Process and system simulations
• State-of-the-art data acquisition systems
• Special field performance tools

Large-scale projects such as plant commissioning, critical equipment overhauls or energy improvement initiatives require complex resource planning, timeline management and detailed budgeting services. And that doesn’t include specific expertise concerning equipment design and operation. Flowserve on-site project managers and engineers provide the needed expertise and help you successfully see your projects through to completion.

Customers often contract with Flowserve to provide permanent on-site rotating equipment experts who serve as the go-to resource for complex pumping system issues. This on-site resource provides a direct conduit to the entire Flowserve network of technology resources and speeds up the resolution of the toughest flow challenges.

Safety is always the highest priority when designing and constructing industrial oxygen handling systems. Flowserve can play an important role in this process with its extensive experience designing and manufacturing valves and equipment for oxygen services. Our oxygen-compatible products are used in both challenging liquid systems and the more common gaseous flow applications across a wide variety of industries, including air separation, chemical, aerospace, medical and other industrial applications.

Flowserve's Oxygen Valve Evaluation Team (OVET) ensures application analysis, design evaluation and rigorous production processes put safety first. This dedicated team frequently works with customers as project specifications and requirements are developed to assure process and equipment compatibility. To engage our OVET, contact your local Flowserve representation, which can be found by visiting https://www.flowserve.com/en/contact-sales.
