Expansion stress:
Thermal expansion occur due to temperature change or
due to any event that could cause relative displacement
between anchor points.
That causes excessive stress in the piping material and
Impose excessive forces or moments on equipment or
supports.

If restrained pipeline:
Pipeline is said it restrained if it cant
expanded in longitudinal direction.
That occur when it is fixed supported or
buried pipeline.

valve
Air-valve
A double-disk parallel-seat
type.
Wedge-shaped-gate type
with an inclined seat.
They are suitable for the toughest applications in high
pressure and high temperature systems.
A gate valve cannot throttle or operate partially open.
The pressure drop through these valves is about equal
to that in a pipe of the same length
It is used at Infrequent operation.



Ball Valve - With
Floating Ball
Ball Valve Trunnion
Mounted
Its application is limited to temperatures that have little
effect on its plastic seats.
They are compact.
When the valve is closed, pressure in the line helps to keep it
closed.
The fluid can flow through it in either direction.
Most ball valves are quick acting.
The pressure drop across the valve in a fully open position is
minimal for a full-port design.



The amount of flow restriction observed with a globe valve
is a function of the valve disk location relative to the valve
seat.
In most cases, the higher pressure fluid stream connected
to the pipe side above the disk, which helps to maintain a
tight seal when the valve is fully closed.
The direction of fluid flow through the valve changes
several times, which increases the pressure drop across the
valve.



Non-Return Valves
Non return valves are used for:
Minimizing reverse flow.
Keeping lines full of fluid.
Prevention of loss of fluid when the system is not in
operation.
Prevention of reverse rotation of pumps.
Prevention of outflow of fluid from vessel.
an automatic pressure-relieving
device suitable for use as either a
safety or relief valve, depending
on application.
Used to protect piping system
from excessive pressure


Ant cavitation orifice.
CLA-VAL 100-45 anti cavitation valve.
Lincoln Log anti cavitation valve

Stage 1:
High pressure is reduced as it passes through the first
restriction.
Stage 2:
Flow through the first restriction is directed towards the
center of the pipe. An additional pressure drop is created as
the flow converges.
Stage 3:
Pressure is dropped further as it passes through the second orifice
plate.
By creating a series of small pressure drops the potential for a
fluid vapor condition (cavitation) is minimized.
Stage 4:
Flow passing through the second orifice plate is directed away
from pressure boundary surfaces.
Cavitation bubbles collapse in the fluid further reducing the
chances of cavitation damage to components.
Flow enters through the slot detail
of the seat. The slot orientation
directs flow towards the center of
the chamber where flow
converges.
Flow exits trough the disc
guide slots are angularly
oriented to direct flow away
from the valve body.

Reverse flow prevention
De-aeration





Purpose:
Sectionalizing valve assemblies are used to
isolate sections of mainline or long laterals
when isolation is required in the event of a line
break or if maintenance in a section of the line
is necessary.





Required components:
A gate or ball valve the size of the mainline to
allow passage of pigs.
Two blow-downs (gas only) for equalizing the
pressure on both sides of the block valve.
A riser on each side of the block valve.

All the cryogenic valves have an extended bonnet with
a mounting pad.
The extension prevents cryogenic liquids from
reaching the stem packing by enabling the liquids to
boil and convert to gas.
The balls have a pressure relief hole on the upstream
side to prevent overpressure of the body cavity from
thermal expansion.
The valve is uni-directional with an arrow showing flow
direction.

greater than one half of inlet
