For an insulated valve or flange, the fabricated shape of the finishedinsul
24、ation system is considered.4.3 Data Input:4.3.1 Total bare surface area and total insulation surface area of the bare valve or flange,4.3.2 Service and ambient temperatures,4.3.3 Wind speed,4.3.4Surface emittances,4.3.4 Surface emittance values4.3.5 Insulation thickness and type, and4.3.6 Number of

26、e metal heat loss per unit area, and the insulation surface heat loss per unit area. The rate of heat loss per unitarea is computed by Practice C680for the appropriate diameter. For bare gate valves, the particular surface area can be taken froma look-up table. Table 1 gives these areas for typical
27、(ANSI Class 150, 300, 600, and 900) flanged gate valves and flanges. If thesevalves are not considered sufficiently accurate, they can be calculated using Eq 1 (see and Table 2 give these areas for typical(ANSI Class 150, 300, 600, and 900) flanged gate valves and flanges. If these valves are not co

Similar equations can be developed for other types of valves and flanges. For the insulation, the outersur

For the insulation on the valves and the flanges, the outer surface area can be obtained eitherfrom Table 3 and Table 4 for insulat
30、ion thickness up to 4 in. or from the insulation fabricator or contractor.5. Significance and Use5.1 Manufacturers of thermal insulation for valves typically express the performance of their products in charts and tablesshowing heat loss per valve. These data are presented for both bare and insulate
31、d valves of different pipe sizes, ANSI classes,insulation types, insulation thicknesses, and service temperatures. Additional information on effects of wind velocity, jacketemittance, bare valve emittance, and ambient conditions mayare also be required to properly select an insulation system. Due to
32、the infinite combination of pipe sizes, ANSI classes, insulation types and thicknesses, service temperatures, insulation covergeometries, surface emittance values, and ambient conditions, it is not possible to publish data for each possible case.5.2 Users of thermal insulation for piping systems fac
33、ed with the problem of designing large systems of insulated piping,encounter substantial engineering costs to obtain the required thermal information. This cost can be substantially reduced by boththe use of accurate engineering data tables, or by the use of available computer analysis tools, or bot
34、h.5.3 The use of this practice by the manufacturer, contractor, and users of thermal insulation for valves and flanges will providestandardized engineering data of sufficient accuracy and consistency for predicting the savings in heating energy use by insulatingbare valves and flanges.5.4 Computers
35、are now readily available to most producers and consumers of thermal insulation to permit use of this practice.5.5The computer program in Practice C680 has been developed to calculate the heat loss per unit length, or per unit surface area,of both bare and insulated pipe. With values for bare valve
36、or flange surface areas, heat loss can be estimated.
