Sulfur Piping: Performance Comparison of a Full Steam Jacket and a Thermon SnapTrace System with TFK Strap-On Steel Jackets
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Quite often traditional specifications for temperature maintenance of sulfur piping and equipment call for the use of a steam jacket as a requirement for the proper handling of sulfur. This is usually based on historical practice which has not considered the availability of newer more economical methods such as the Thermon SnapTrace system which has also been proven to be an effective method for heating sulfur. As an example of the performance comparison between a jacketed system and a SnapTrace system, two identical 4" pipes (10 feet in length) were set up in the Thermon testing laboratory.

Diagonal Strap bracing is one of the most applicable lateral bracing systems in light steel framing (LSF). In practice, one or more panels of Gypsum Wall Boards (GWBs) is used for the cladding of strap braced frames. Usually, the effect of these GWBs in modelling and design is neglected by designers, but this effect can affect the seismic performance of the system In this paper, firstly, a simp...

Development of a numerical model which describes launching of offshore jackets from barge is presented in this paper. In this model, in addition to capabilities of commercial softwares, water entry forces on jacket members and an implicit Newmark solution technique are included. The results are in general agreement with other numerical software’s available (SACS). Fluid forces acting on jacket ...

Considering the stress cycles in the joints and members due to wave induced forces on offshore platforms, fatigue analysis is therefore one of the most important analyses in the offshore platforms design. Although most of the steel jacket type platforms are designed and located in areas with relatively high ratios of operational sea-states, for maximum environmental events, would have acceptabl...
