I think an intuition for what pumps and compressors "want" is missing when young engineers are taught about how they operate. Have you ever thought, hmmm, my pump is not giving enough pressure? If so, then this one is for you.

00:00 How we start learning about pumps
01:02 How much force do you exert?
02:48 Pumps don't care about you or your flow
04:53 "My pump is not giving enough pressure..."
05:55 Bigger pumps vs. smaller ones
06:29 Don't waste you colleagues' time

Process with Pat is the place to come for perspective and to ask stupid questions. I want you to leave more knowledgeable, confident, motivated, and most importantly, curious. I also want to invigorate a field that seems tired and uninspiring, at least if you get your perspective from internet forums. These are not lectures. This is a place for you to leave thinking “Oh! That’s why...”

This channel is not only for chemical engineers - anyone who works with processes should be able to find something of value here.
