Abstract:

In order to improve Z-shaped pipe in the directly buried heat-supply pipeline with large diameter stress calculations, guiding the engineering design when the short arm length is less than two times the elastic arms length. The author used ANSYS software to numerical simulation analysis on Z-shaped pipe in the directly buried heat-supply pipeline of DN800, DN1000, DN1200, when the long arm length of 50 m, 100 m, 150 m, and the short arm length from two times to one times of the elastic arm length. Applying boundary conditions in different models with the short arm length shortens the process to Z-shaped pipe of the elbow stress. For Z-shaped pipe in the directly buried heat-supply pipeline the short arm from two times to one times of the elastic arm length, the elbow’s stress value is the minimum when the short arm length is 1.2 times of the elastic arm length. This article breaks the specification limits on the short arm length, improving the flexibility of directly buried heat-supply pipeline with large diameter, reducing the difficulty of construction, and it’s important for guiding the actual project.
