Branch pipe table is an important pipe fitting used to connect branch pipe and main pipe in pipeline system, which has the following main functions in pipeline:
Connection and branching
Realization of pipeline branching: the branch pipe table provides a standard interface for the connection of branch pipe and main pipe, which can make the fluid in the main pipe smoothly divert to the branch pipe according to the process requirements, and meet the needs of different parts of the fluid transportation. For example, in a chemical production plant, a number of branch pipes are led out from the main material conveying pipeline through the branch pipe table, and the material is separately conveyed to each reactor or processing equipment.
Flexible arrangement of piping: It can be installed at different positions on the main pipe to facilitate the flexible arrangement of branch pipes according to the needs of the process and equipment layout, so as to make the direction and connection of the piping system more reasonable and convenient, and optimize the structure of the entire piping network. For example, in the building's water supply and drainage system, a branch pipe table can be installed at a suitable location on the main pipe to lead water to the water equipment in each room.
Enhance connection strength and stability
Ensure the reliability of the connection: the connection between the branch pipe table and the main pipe and branch pipe usually adopts welding, threaded connection and other methods, which can provide a reliable mechanical connection and ensure that during the operation of the piping system, there will be no loosening and leakage between the branch pipe and the main pipe due to fluid pressure, vibration and other factors. In high-pressure, high-temperature piping systems, such as steam piping in cogeneration plants, this reliable connection of the branch pipe table is particularly important.
Distribute stress: When the fluid flows in the main pipe and branch pipe, a certain amount of stress will be generated in the connection area. The structural design of the branch pipe table can effectively disperse these stresses and avoid stress concentration at the connection point, thus improving the overall strength and stability of the piping system and reducing the possibility of rupture, leakage and other failures of the pipeline due to stress damage.
Convenient for maintenance and overhaul
Convenient operation space: the branch pipe table is set up to provide convenience for the maintenance and overhaul of the piping system. When it is necessary to repair or replace parts of the branch pipe or main pipe, due to the existence of the branch pipe table, the maintenance personnel can more conveniently approach the connection part, and there is enough operating space to carry out the work of disassembling and installing. For example, in the pipeline maintenance of petrochemical plants, the branch pipe table facilitates the maintenance personnel to inspect and repair the connection between the branch pipe and the main pipe.
Simplify the maintenance process: the branch pipe table standardizes and regulates the connection between the branch pipe and the main pipe, so that it can more quickly determine whether there are problems in the connection parts during maintenance, and can more accurately locate and repair the faults, shorten the maintenance time, and improve the operational efficiency of the pipeline system.
Control and regulation of fluids
Installation of instruments and valves: The branch pipe platform can be used as an interface for the installation of measuring instruments (e.g. flow meters, pressure gauges, etc.) and control valves (e.g. regulating valves, globe valves, etc.). By installing these instruments and valves on the branch pipe platform, the fluid flow, pressure, temperature and other parameters in the pipeline can be accurately measured and controlled to achieve automated operation and optimization of the entire pipeline system. For example, in the city gas supply system, through the installation of flow meters and regulating valves on the branch pipe platform, you can accurately control the amount of gas delivery to ensure the safety and stability of gas supply.
Adjustment of flow distribution: In some complex pipeline systems, through the installation of appropriate flow control devices on the branch pipe platform, according to the needs of different users or equipment, the reasonable distribution of fluid flow in the main pipe, improve the utilization efficiency of the fluid, to meet the requirements of different processes on the flow.
