Calculations for cooling of equipment and pipelines
Thread Content
The majority of posts on forums and online materials deal with heat tracing calculations, with very few resources available for cooling calculations. What relates to heat insulation mostly involves calculating the thickness of the insulation layer; there is little discussion on calculations related to the cooling water pipes. There is a significant difference between cooling and heating, and the factors that need to be considered also vary. So, is there anyone with experience in calculating cooling tubes for equipment or jacket cooling who could share their knowledge?
There are relevant calculation methods for cooling pipes in the \"Reference Manual for the Installation Design of Petrochemical Pipelines\", but there are no separate design specifications for their actual installation; similarly, there are no standards or methods specified for the installation of cooling pipes
