Hello BigInch,
The Operational temperature is 30degC (which is the departure temperature), the arrival (at the Cold End) is 25C. How do we calculate the Virtual Anchor Location on the Cold End of the Pipeline. That is, do we use the Inlet (Operating) temperatures or the discharge (outlet)...
BigInchThanks once again for your Spot on reply. It answered quite some doubts.One more thing please.
If we are going to do another calculation for the Cold end, what temperatures are we going to use as the departure and arrival temperatures and Pipeline Length. The spreadsheet (here attached)...
Thanks BigInch for your post. I appreciate it.
I have a spreadsheet that I normally use to calculate the thermal Expansion of Pipelines. The Spreadsheet gives me the Expansion in the Hot and Cold ends and also the Length of the Virtual Anchor from the Hot(Launcher) and Cold(Receiver) ends of the...

With reference to the above thread, has anybody here modelled underground pipeline with Autopipe. If yes, how can the need for Anchor Block be obtained from the Autopipe simulation result? Can the location of the Vitual Anchor be determined using Autopipe. If no, how can one...
