Process Equipment and Plant Design The wall thickness for a large high pressure pipeline is determined by the consideration of the Circumferential pipewall tension Forces exerted by static and dynamic action at bends Temperature stresses Axial tensile stress in the pipe Circumferential pipewall tension Forces exerted by static and dynamic action at bends Temperature stresses Axial tensile stress in the pipe ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Process Equipment and Plant Design Pressure drop due to pipe fittings can be estimated by the equation, ΔP/p = 4f.Le/D.V2/2gc, where, Le = equivalent length of straight pipeline which will incur the same frictional loss as the fitting and D = diameter of the fitting. The value of Le/D (dimensionless) for 45° elbow and 180° close return bends would be respectively around 5 and 10 180 and 300 300 and 500 45 and 75 5 and 10 180 and 300 300 and 500 45 and 75 ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
