How should “deadlegs” be translated? And how should the following sentence be translated?

The corrosion rate in deadlegs can vary significantly from that in adjacent active piping. The inspector should monitor wall thickness on selected deadlegs, including both the stub end and the point where it connects to an active line.

Urgent! I hope experts will reply soon. Thank you!

It seems like “deadleg” implies having branches
Reply #42009-02-20
It means “fixed support”, right!

It could be understood as legs or brackets, but based on the phrase “connection to an active line,” I think it makes more sense to interpret it as a fixed bracket (and I believe that since corrosion of the bracket is being measured, and it is distinct from the pipe, it should be a type of bracket that uses the pipe for support)

The corrosion rate in deadlegs can vary significantly from that in adjacent active piping. The inspector should monitor the wall thickness of selected deadlegs, including both the stub end and the point where it connects to an active pipeline. Deadlegs should be blind ends or dead zones; The corrosion at the blind end is very different from that of the adjacent operating pipes. The inspector shall inspect the selected blind ends, including the ends of all pipe sections and the dead zones connected to the operating pipes. Give it a rough translation.

Deadleg refers to a dead end or section with no flow; for discussions on this topic, see the existing threads on the forum at http://bbs.hcbbs.com/viewthread.php?tid=349925 (it can be found easily using the search function). BTW, “stagment” is a misspelling of “stagnant” (meaning not flowing); it’s recommended to post such questions in the foreign language section, where experts in foreign languages often visit, and replies are usually provided quickly. :handshake
