    Abstract: An optimized gate valve having a box-shaped valve body is provided. The valve body (20) includes spaced apart side plates (22, 23) and spaced apart end plates. The valve body includes an internal fluid passage and an internal gate chamber extending transverse to the internal fluid passage. A slab gate is provided in the internal gate chamber and is operable to move within the internal gate chamber between an open position allowing fluid flow through the fluid passage and a closed position obstructing fluid flow through the internal fluid passage. The design optimization requires less welding, reduces the thickness of the valve body walls, uses reinforcement ribs (50) having an optimal position and shape, and uses fins (48) to help the pipe connection contain the internal pressure of the valve.

    Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to a system configured to protect flows in piping systems using minimal spare components. Some embodiments may provide: a first piping subsystem configured to receive a portion of the input flow; a second piping subsystem configured to receive the portion of the input flow by substituting for the first subsystem; a test subsystem configured to detect whether each of the first and second subsystems is able to vent when at least one, in the each subsystem, of a respective pressure and a respective pressure rate satisfies first and second criteria, respectively; and first and second pilots configured to detect a maximum pressure and a maximum pressure rate, respectively, of the portion of the first and second subsystems.

    Abstract: A system may be configured to monitor surge relief. Some embodiments may: provide a surge relief valve; provide a set of instruments coupled to the surge relief valve and configured to output first and second data based on a prediction, each of the first and second data having a quality level satisfying a first criterion; provide a computer; and provide a non-transitory medium comprising instructions executable by the computer to report information based on the prediction that an operating characteristic of the surge relief valve is at an extent satisfying a second criterion.
