Regarding the load calculation issue of the intermediate steam pipeline for the two fixed supports.
Thread Content
Two fixed brackets, with steam applied at 180 degrees in between; what load must the fixed brackets withstand if steam is used? How should this be calculated? As shown in the figure.
Based on an outer diameter of 159 mm and an installation temperature of 20°C, Fx = A*e*E/100. The thermal expansion amount of the pipe ΔL is 0.582 cm; the linear expansion coefficient e is 0.194 cm/m, and the elastic modulus E is 179,000 MPa. The cross-sectional area of the pipe A is 2418 mm2. Therefore, the thrust acting on the fixed support is Fx = 840 kN. Corrections are welcome

Thank you. Is there any book that explains the formula you mentioned, FX=A*e*E/100? Is it described in books such as the power piping manual?
