Horizontal containers are used for high-temperature equipment
Thread Content
I have a question for everyone. According to the standards for saddle supports, the operating temperature range is from -40 to 200°C. What should be considered if the equipment’s temperature exceeds 200°C, and how should materials be selected in such cases? For example, in a heat transfer oil storage tank where the temperature of the medium can reach up to 300 degrees, how should the saddle be designed?
The simplest way is to fix one end of the saddle and leave the other end unfixed.
Taking a look at this post might be helpful to you. Inquiry regarding the calculation of saddle supports for horizontal containers: https://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-1539251-1-1.html (Source: Haichuan Chemical Industry Forum)
In which industry are heat transfer oil storage tanks used to store oil at 300°C?
Why was this question raised? If the temperature of the container is high, what impact does it have on the design temperature of the saddle? The saddle is generally exposed to the air, so there shouldn’t be any issue with excessive temperatures
The temperature cannot exceed the design temperature, no matter how high it gets. Just leave more margin for the saddle load and make the elongated hole at the sliding end longer. That’s all.
The value specified in 47065 is the design temperature for saddle supports. The temperature of the heat transfer oil you are referring to is one that the container itself has to withstand; the saddle does not need to endure such high temperatures.
