Thanks, Matt. I did find this interesting NASA study, but it had some unique design conditions so I couldn't draw the most applicable conclusions. It also referenced ISO-13732-3, but I don't have access to that code. In my (limited, 6 years) experience in power plant engineering, I haven't...
I'm aware of OSHA requirements to insulate hot piping (generally above 140 deg F) for personnel protection, but I can't seem to find any reference about a lower limit. Is there a code or industry practice for cold piping personnel protection? I imagine touching a pipe containing a fluid at...

Hi all,
