Dear shr


Thank you

In my experience, case 1 is more conservative than other two cases. i did one calculation , pipe size 26 ", operating temp 130 Deg c. in this calculation case 1 have more forces and moments.

same calculation considering case 2 method , the force and moments are minimize .

so i am asking . how can predict temperature decay.

i am sure using temp decay , we can eliminate all unnecessary over design.
