Pipes with temperature difference
Thread Content
Under normal conditions, two pipes made of the same material are connected together to form a main pipe. In extreme operating conditions, there can be a temperature difference of around 100°C between the two pipes: one pipe has a temperature of 45°C while the other has a temperature of 128°C. In such cases, will there be any problems with the pipe formed by combining these two pipes into one main pipe, such as vibrations?
Are the pipe diameters the same? Will water hammer occur?
The diameters of the branch pipes are the same; the main pipe is thicker
Just resolve the temperature difference, that’s all, right?
First, it depends on what the medium is; water isn’t much of a problem
It’s fine to use hot soybean oil together with cold soybean oil; the temperature difference is around 200 degrees
