    INTRODUCTION OF PIPE RACK


    A pipe rack is the main artery of process unit, it connects all equipment with lines that cannot run through adjacent areas . The pipe rack must be erected first and its carry Process lines Utility lines Instrument and electrical cable trays Equipment.

    PIPE RACK DESIGN CRITERIA

    LINE ROUTING DIAGRAM SHAPES FUTURE SPACE WIDTH OF PIPE RACK CLEARANCE ANCHOR POINT

    LINE ROUTING DIAGRAM


    A line routing diagram is a schematic representation of all process piping systems drawn on the copy of the plot plan.

    LINE ROUTING DIAGRAM

    SHAPES
    These are various shapes of pipe rack like L/T/U/H/Z .

    FUTURE SPACE
    25 percentage extra space for future expansion or modification

    WIDTH OF PIPE RACK


    The width of pipe rack shall be 20,25 or 30 having 4 tiers maximum. The spacing between pipe rack portals shall be taken as 20 and 25.

    CLEARANCE
    Clearance beneath pipe rack shall be 10 feet minimum Clearance from road shall be 25 for main road and 15 for secondary road

    ANCHOR POINT
    Assuming that Anchor point is Located at center or quarter distance from ends of header.

    Position of lines. Dont run piping over stanchion . Place large liquid-filled lines 14and above near stanchions. Provide 25 % extra space for future up to 50 and 10% for above 50. Hot insulated and mounted on the shoe. Warm pipes may have insulation locally removed at supports. Flare header requires slope and its mounted on shoe. Electrical and instrument trays are usually run on top level of the pipe rack. 10 ft Clearance for forklift and maintenance . Three ft is sufficient for up to 24 inches dia pipe. Preferably Meter runs should be installed directly next to the column, Although meter runs are located in pipe rack only when absolutely necessary

    12

    Battery limits (ISBL) &(OSBL) The process lines crossing units are normally provided with block valves, spectacle blind and drain values. These are preferable in vertical run With good accessibility

    USEFULL CALCULATION & CONSIDERATION INVOLVED DURING DESIGN

    PIPE SPACING THERMAL EXPANSION SPAN LENGTH PIPE RACK LOADING PIPE SPACING O.D. of bigger size flange (minimum 300 rating)/2 + O.D. of smaller pipe/2 + individual insulation thickness with additional 1clearance Even if flange is not appearing the min. spacing shall be calculated on same basis EXAMPLE 1

    LINE SPACING

    16

    THERMAL EXPANSION Linear thermal expansion of an object can be expressed as = xL Where - linear coefficient of thermal expansion L- original length - change in length EXAMPLE:-2 How to calculate pipe expansion 100 feet carbon steel pipe at 6000F 100 feet stainless steel pipe at 6000 F

    17

    18

    SPAN LENGTH
    A support span is the distance between two pipe supports. But ensure the pipe deflection and bending stresses are within safe working limits. Its standard practice to limit the maximum span deflection in horizontal pipe lines to the bending stress to 1/8 of ultimate allowable bending stress.

    19

    PIPE RACK LOADING


    Pipe rack loads shall be given by stress group to civil and structural discipline for pipe rack design.

    Sustained load (Dead Load) Weight of piping, valve and insulation.


    Hydrostatic load Liquid load for hydrostatic pressure test. Thermal load Load by thermal expansion of piping and reaction force by internal pressure of expansion bellows. Dynamic load Load by vibration of piping and by wind and earthquake.

    20

    EXPANSION LOOP
    Expansion loop is provided on the high temperature lines. This information shall be given by stress group. Generally all the loops shall be located around one column only.

    21

    Make

    lines into a group and install a large size piping and high temperature piping to the edge of the rack.

    EXPANSION LOOP

    22

    When necessary to install an expansion loop on the steam line, There should be given a provision for drip leg to drain Condensate.
