Issues with pipeline arrangement priority principles?
Thread Content
As is well known, when arranging pipes, in the vertical arrangement the pipes for hot media are placed above, while those for cold media are placed below； Those with corrosion are below, those without corrosion are above ； Insulated pipes are on top, while uninsulated pipes are at the bottom, and so on. . . . The question now is: for insulated pipes of thermal media, those that are corroded – in cases like this, does corrosion occur first? Should heat retention be given priority? There are also high-pressure pipelines that require regular maintenance, and so on. . So when encountering such situations, which one takes priority?
1. Corrosion should be given priority. 2. A comprehensive consideration is needed, taking maintenance into account
Corrosion first. For items that require frequent maintenance, ease of maintenance should be taken into consideration.
In my opinion, the reason for placing the insulated pipes of the hot medium above and those that are corroded below is to prevent the corroded pipes from affecting the pipes beneath them. High-pressure pipelines that are frequently inspected should be placed at the top, as there is more space there for maintenance. For your reference
Fish Boss, since the hot pipes and gas pipes need to be arranged in upper and lower layers now, which one should take priority? The gas is process waste gas, and the heat pipe is heat transfer oil
That’s how I understand it – isn’t gas a process gas? Don’t process pipelines usually run on the lower layer? Thermal oil is used in heat pipes for insulation; do both the heat-carrying pipes and the insulated pipes go to the upper layer? What is the principle behind your arrangement?
