No solar eruptions/flares. Coronal hole and solar wind, yes, which occurs regularly. [link to www.livescience.com (secure)] ~*Ride the Wave*~ |

They heard from people they know who still work there that they connected a low pressure line (1/3 pound) to a high pressure line (99 pound) by mistake. From what they've told me, there aren't regulators on the low pressure systems and it blew the internals of everyone's appliances apart." Quoting: fluffycat Bullshit! |

Revman User ID: 75868928 ![]() 09/13/2018 10:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ASPEN, Colo. — Iranian hackers have laid the groundwork to carry out extensive cyberattacks on U.S. and European infrastructure and on private companies, and the U.S. is warning allies, hardening its defenses and weighing a counterattack, say multiple senior U.S. officials. Despite Iran having positioned cyber weapons to carry out attacks, there is no suggestion an offensive operation is imminent, according to the officials, who requested anonymity in order to speak. Cyber threats have been a major theme of the 2018 Aspen Security Forum, with administration officials from Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats, FBI Director Chris Wray, and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein all warning of the pervasive danger from Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea.

Square User ID: 69031954 ![]() 09/13/2018 10:47 PM ![]() Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's calculated in PSI. The lowest pressure mains are about 7 PSI and a regulator aren't needed is correct. High pressures lines run bout 100 PSI. I don't see how anyone can make that kind a mistake. After installing the line the proper procedure is to check the system for possible leaks. This doesn't explains why the system didn't automatic shut down due to pressure deferences or a sudden drop in pressure to to a major leak. Quoting: Terrebonne . This why I call bullshit. If a High pressure line were attached to a low pressure line fine. When the multiple low pressure lines experienced ruptures there should be an immediate drop in pressure as seen on the high pressure line. Technology attached to the high pressure lines should recognize this pressure drop and immediately shut down. There is much more to this story that we currently have. The greatest power we have is the power to say, I don't know. The opinions and views expressed here do not represent those of a real person. This is a role playing forum.

Technology attached to the high pressure lines should recognize this pressure drop and immediately shut down. Quoting: Square There is much more to this story that we currently have. But the high pressure line has a much greater capacity than the low pressure line, it may have been able to over pressurize the low line using only a small amount of it's nominal capacity. Let's say that the high pressure line trips when it goes from 100 psi to 80 psi in 5 seconds. Perhaps the pressure drop when the line was opened was only to 85 psi and then returned to normal when the line was filled, and even with the pipes that burst... they may only have been a small percent extra flow on a high pressure backbone line. And there are even higher pressure lines out there, I know gas turbine power plants are fed by 300 to 4000 psi lines, filling a small local low pressure grid may just be a drop in the bucket for them that would go unnoticed until it was too late. |
