Structural pipe-in-pipe cross-sections have significant potential for application in offshore oil and gas production systems because of their property that combines insulation performance with structural strength in an integrated way. Such cross-sections comprise inner and outer thin walled pipes with the annulus between them fully filled by a selectable thick filler material to impart an appropriate combination of properties. Structural pipe-in-pipe cross-sections can exhibit several different collapse mechanisms and the basis of the preferential occurrence of one over others is of interest. This paper presents an elastic analyses of a structural pipe-in-pipe cross-section when subjected to external hydrostatic pressure. It formulates and solves the static and elastic buckling problem using the variational principle of minimum potential energy. The paper also investigates a simplified formulation of the problem where the outer pipe and its contact with the filler material is considered as a 'pipe on an elastic foundation'. Results are presented to show the variation of elastic buckling pressure with the relative elastic modulus of the filler and pipe materials, the filler thickness and the thicknesses of the inner and outer pipes. The range of applicability of the simplified 'pipe on an elastic foundation' analysis is also presented. A brief review of the types of materials that could be used as the filler is combined with the results of the analysis to draw conclusions about elastic buckling behaviour of structural pipe-in-pipe cross-sections.

Failure analysis of pre-insulated pipe (SPPS 380, 400A) transporting high temperature water ($95{\sim}110^{\circ}C$) for a plant was carried out. The damaged area (${\Phi}5mm$) of pre-insulated pipe was found only on welds. The chemical composition of damaged pipe meets specification of carbon steel pipes for pressure service (KS D 3562). As results of microstructure analysis, crack propagated from outer to inside after pitting corrosion occurred on the outside surface. The non-metallic inclusion existed on the end of crack. And the non-metallic inclusion continuously and linearly formed along with the bond line of welds. Based on SEM-EDS analysis, the nonmetallic inclusions have higher Manganese (Mn) and Oxygen (O) content but sulfur (S) was not detected. As results of water quality analysis, hydrogen ion concentration and minerals like Fe, Mg, Si were in low level. But the content of dissolved oxygen (11.2 ppm) was slightly higher than that of standard. It seems that the cause of damaged pipe is grooving corrosion due to MnO inclusion formed on bond line and corrosion took place nearby welds.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to resolve the Naval ship's Local Operation Panel(LOP) malfunction problems which caused by overheating in summer season and dispatching to equatorial regions. Methods: Instead of using dual type heat insulation materials(consist with ceramic wool and glass wool), aerogel heat insulation materials were used for decreasing heat emissions from gas-turbine heat waste steam pipes passing water-jet- room. Experiment and Computational analysis of heat flow were conducted to analyze the internal room temperature changes. Results: The results of this study are as follows; The aerogel heat insulation materials suppress heat emission more efficiently than dual type insulation materials. The cold surface temperature of insulation was far more decreased and internal room, LOP surface temperature also showed significant results too. Conclusion: The substituted heat insulation materials appeared remarkable performance in decreasing room temperature that it could be used for suppressing the LOP overheatings and malfunctions.

The concept of district heating involves centralised heat production where heat is distributed to consumer via a piping network. The objective of this work is to identify the Flexible Pipe from an economy, execution, maintenance point of view. Flexible Pipe has in some countries, especially in Europe, been used for many years in district heating. In spite of years of experience, there still exist doubts about the possibilities of using flexible pipes in district heating applications, mostly because of no experiences in domestic market. The advantage of flexible pipe systems is their flexibility. This holds not only for the inner pipe but also for the total pipe system including insulation and jacket. Even for the largest diameter the minimum radius of curvature is given to 1.5m. The most important difference between flexible pipe systems and preinsulated steel pipes is their simple and quick assembly. Such information could provide a basis for making reasonable hypotheses about consumer preferences, to foam a basis for making future marketing more effective.

도심지 지하에 위치하며 고온, 고압조건에서 운영되는 열수송관은 파손 시 인적, 경제적으로 대규모 피해가 발생할 수 있다. 파손을 사전에 예측하기 위해 기존 파손이력과 설비이력을 분석하여 파손빈도와 상관관계를 가지는 독립변수를 도출하고, 각 변수를 활용한 단순회귀분석 변형모델이 현장에 적용되고 있다. 다만, 모델에 적용되는 독립변수간 상관관계가 클수록 변수간 독립성이 훼손되어 모델의 신뢰성이 낮아진다. 본 연구에서는 상호 연관성을 가지는 것으로 판단되는 관경, 매설깊이, 감시시스템 절연레벨, 감지선의 단선 또는 단락의 독립성을 검정하여 파손빈도 추정모델에 적용하기 위해 필요한 변수간 결합 및 범주 설정 방안을 도출하였다. 독립성 검정을 위해 연속형 변수인 관경과 매설깊이는 각각 3개의 범주, 감시시스템 절연레벨은 2개의 범주로 변환하였으며, 범주형 변수인 감시시스템 감지선 상태는 범주를 그대로 2개로 유지하였다. 독립성 검정 결과, 관경과 매설깊이간, 감시시스템 절연레벨과 감지선의 단선 또는 단락간 유의확률이 유의수준(α = 0.05)보다 작아 상호간 상관관계가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 관경과 매설깊이를 하나의 변수로 결합하고 사전에 설정한 범주를 고려하여 결합 변수의 범주는 9개로 설정하였다. 감시시스템 절연레벨과 감지선의 단선 또는 단락 역시 하나의 변수로 결합하였으며, 감지선 상태가 단선 또는 단락인 경우 절연레벨값을 신뢰할 수 없으므로 결합 변수의 범주는 3개로 설정하였다.

The goal of this paper is to investigate structural integrity factors of RMI(reflective metal insulation) to confirm the design requirements in nuclear power plant. Currently, a glass wool insulation is using now, but it will gradually be replaced with the reflective metal insulation maded by stainless steel plates. The main function of an insulation is to minimize a heat loss of vessel and pipes in RCS(reactor coolant system). It has to maintain structural a integrity in nuclear power plant life duration. In this study, the structural integrity analysis was carried out both multi-plate and outer shell plate by using a static analysis and experimental test. First, inner multi-plate has a self support structure for being air space. Because the effect of total static weight in multi-layer plate is low, a plate collapse possibility is not high. Considering optimum thin plate pressing process, it has to pre-check the basic physical properties. Second, the outer segment thickness and stiffener shape are verified by the numerical static analysis, and sample test for both type of panel and cylindrical pipe model.

In the refrigerator, the two-phase refrigerant-induced noise of the capillary tube in an evaporator-inlet pipe has been a great concern. The capillary tube is usually covered with insulation-foam packed in the space between inner and outer cabinets without any vibration isolation. Therefore, the refrigerant-induced vibration of the capillary tube can be easily transferred to the outer cabinet, which may increase the radiated noise. In this paper, the characteristics of transferred vibration through the insulation-foam are investigated experimentally by using the refrigerantsupplying equipment. The frequency characteristics, such as dynamic Young's modulus and loss factor, of the insulation-foam are also discussed.

Double pipe system in which PB pipe is inserted in CD pipe buried in the concrete slab is widely used for cold and hot water supplies in apartment housings. The system, however becomes complicated and the overlaying pipes in the concrete slab weaken the compressive strength of the slab. Also, insufficient insulation increases energy loss. In this work, the problems of the double pipe system are studied and plans A, B, and C are suggested for improvement. In terms of compressive strength of the concrete slab, plan A(total pipe length 73 m) was the weakest and plan B(2 m) was the strongest. Energy loss of plan A was the largest with 558.9 W and plan B was the lowest with 220.7 W. However, considering the combined effect of strength and heat loss, plan C becomes the best choice, which retains the advantage of the double pipe system.
