Abstract: A magnetic drive sealless pump may comprise a pump casing, assembly bearing housing, and a frame having a first open end coupled to the pump casing and a second open end coupled to the bearing housing. The frame is provide over an outer magnetic ring and a containment shell, and the frame comprises a steam inlet and a steam outlet. The steam inlet is positioned proximate to the containment shell and the outer magnetic ring to permit introduction of steam to an exterior of the containment shell and the outer magnetic ring. The bearing housing my comprise a second steam outlet arranged between a dry gas seal and a bearing isolator for draining water accumulation.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods of measuring a hydrogen diffusivity of a metal structure including during operation of the metal structure, are provided. A hydrogen charging surface is provided at a first location on an external surface of the structure. In addition, a hydrogen oxidation surface is provided at a second location adjacent to the first location on the external surface of the structure. Hydrogen flux is generated and directed into the metal surface at the charging surface. At least a portion of the hydrogen flux generated by the charging surface is diverted back toward the surface. A transient of the diverted hydrogen fluxes measured, and this measurement is used to determine the hydrogen diffusivity of the metal structure in service.
