Regarding ethylene glycol pipeline design
Thread Content
This post was last edited by wwyyxxz on 2018-8-14 08:12. Currently, there are 2 sets of ethylene glycol coolant that need to be transported, and it is necessary to determine the size of the main pipes: for the first set, the ethylene glycol concentration is around 55%, the temperature is -25°C, and the flow rate is 350 cubic meters per hour. The second group had an ethylene glycol concentration of around 50%, a temperature of -15°C, and a flow rate of 400 cubic meters per hour. The user is approximately 60 meters away. What flow rate and pipe diameter do you generally find to be appropriate? Since I have never used ethylene glycol before, I would appreciate everyone’s advice.
Could anyone with experience share their thoughts?
DN250, flow rate controlled at 2~2.5 m/s
Don’t the design specifications specify the safe flow velocity?
There is one, but there’s no specified operating temperature
Flow rate: 0.5 meters; pipe diameter to be calculated separately
