Dear Friends,
I'm working on a ducting system with a design temperature 500C and OD 1400mm that is an inlet of equipment with a diameter of 17m and an average temperature of 550-600C. I have designed this line with 2 gimbal expansion joints as attached file. Is it a correct design? Is this system well-arranged for absorbing the radial movement of equipment and absorbing the vertical movement of the duct(22m vertical line)?
Do two expansion joints withstand 7m spool between them?
Regards,
