The role of titanium pipe fittings in the chemical industry

my country began to use titanium in the chemical system of the civil industry in the 1970s. As a corrosion-resistant structural material used in chemical equipment, titanium has established its position, and as an ideal material in chemical pipelines for transporting corrosive media. The life of the pipeline depends on the fittings, and the titanium fittings have attracted more and more attention from engineers and technicians. Therefore, the standardization of titanium pipelines is more important.

Let’s analyze the working conditions of titanium parts: Titanium pipelines mainly transport severely corrosive and dangerous media. When the media with corrosive media passes through the titanium pipe fittings, the media carries some pressure, and the bearing pressure of each pipe fitting is different. Three commonly used pipe fittings (elbow, tee, reducer) to analyze:

　　 One. Titanium reducer:

The working condition of the reducer, when the medium passes through the reducer, the medium often flows from the large end to the small end. Due to the gradual decrease of the cross-sectional area, the cone of the reducer is pressurized, and the inner surface of the cone has a higher bearing capacity. High pressure and severe erosion and corrosion.

　　 Two, titanium elbow:

　　 elbow is one of the important pipe fittings of each piping system. In addition to changing the direction of the medium flow, it also increases the flexibility of the pipeline. When the medium passes through the elbow, the pressurized medium rushes directly to the back of the elbow, and the medium flows along the back to the outlet. It can be seen that the back of the elbow bears both greater pressure and severe erosion and corrosion, indicating its The back load is greater than any part.

　　 Three, titanium tee:

The working condition of the tee is similar to that of the elbow. When the medium passes through the tee, it directly rushes to the intersection of the branch and the straight road of the two. The bearing pressure and erosion corrosion here are greater than other parts. .

　　 The above analysis shows that titanium pipe fittings are very important parts in titanium pipes, which directly affect the life of titanium pipes and titanium pipe fittings.
