In the past, steam heating was often used to heat mooring process pipelines, however due to many of the disadvantages of steam heating, the steam heating was gradually replaced by electric heating. Take the lubricating oil project in the port of Jiangsu Province as an example to illustrate how to choose a suitable electric heating cable for the lubricating oil pipeline.

The transport medium of the mooring process pipeline of this project is oil lubricants and their transportation temperature shall be maintained at 60 °C. Electric heating is to use electric heating energy in addition to the heat lost by the heating body in the process to maintain the most reasonable process temperature of the flow medium and play a role in maintaining the temperature.

Electric heating technology mainly refers to three electric heating methods: 1. Skin effect current method (SECT method for short) 2. Mineral insulated heating cable method (MI method for short) method, constant power electric heating method). The selected project is an electric heating method. The electric heating cable is flexible and can be easily laid on the surface of the pipeline. The outer layer of the metal braid is a safe ground wire to prevent static electricity. It can not only improve the overall strength of the electric heating cable, but also play the role of heat exchange and heat dissipation.
Medium-temperature series self-regulating electric heating belt is widely used in fire, oil, chemical, metallurgical, electric power, environmental and other industrial enterprises for heating, heat preservation, anticoagulation and antifreeze pipelines. And storage tanks. The electric heating tape is suitable for common areas, explosive zones and corrosive zones, and after use together with a power explosion-proof distribution box, it is suitable for use in the T4-T6 explosive gas mixture of the first and second groups. Areas of the plant, which are not directly affected by external forces.

Parameters of the self-regulating electric heating belt of the medium temperature series (ZWK)
(1) Standard color: Brown
(2) Temperature range: The maximum operating temperature is 90 ± 5 °C, the maximum sustained temperature is 125 °C (the temperature of the maintained belt core).
(3) Design temperature: Polyolefin minimum-20 °C, Fluorine material minimum-60 °C
(4) Starting current: ≤ 0.6 A/m
(5) Thermal stability: After the electric heating belt has passed the thermal performance test, its power should be maintained at 90% of the original value.
(6) Bending radius: 30.4mm at-20 °C, 40.6mm at-60 °C
(7) Insulation resistance: The insulation resistance between the electric heating conductor and the metal shielding layer shall be at least 50 MOM. 维rol-in-the-how-to, the-how-to, the-the-all, the-the-the-the-people, the-the-people, the-the-all,

Electric heating cable is a heating method that uses insulation resistance or resistance heating wire to create a temperature after power supply. It can automatically adjust the output temperature and reasonably maintain the process temperature requirements to keep warm, raise the temperature and protect the heating equipment from freezing. The insulation and antifreeze effect of the container is very good.
Which electric heating should be chosen for the main pipeline transport of heavy oil
Transport of heavy oil through the pipeline over long distances and long-term retention in the pipeline will result in a drop in temperature due to heat dissipation and increased viscosity, which will cause the pipeline to be blocked by freezing or condensation-related accidents. Electric heating is widely used as effective insulation of pipelines and anti-freeze protection.
Which electric heating cable should be considered for a 4 km pipeline
According to the statistics of the Hydrometeorological Center, the average daily minimum temperature at the location of the CNPC tank farm is 5 ° C, and the average daily maximum temperature is 14 ° C. Since the freezing point of the PX is about 15 °C, the supply pipeline needs heat preservation and heating. The oil depot has been in operation for many years without a stable source of steam, therefore, this project is considering the use of electric heating technology.
Application of outdoor electric heating cable in oil main pipelines with high paraffin content
Long-distance crude oil pipelines with a high paraffin content with freezing temperatures above 50 °C. According to the requirements of the production plan of the plant, the volume of oil transportation through the pipeline is 150 thousand rubles. Tons per year, maximum-200 thousand. Tons per year.. According to the thermodynamic analysis of the pipeline, the initial supply temperature of the pipeline is 80 ° C (TN), and the temperature of the end entering the tank is 60 ° C (Tu). Since the transportation temperature needs to be adjusted according to the time of year, it sometimes needs to be transported by heat.
What heating product to choose for main infusion pipelines
In petrochemical engineering, trunk infusion pipelines are the lifeblood of the factories. The temperature in the northern region is too low in winter and the pipeline needs to be insulated to compensate for the heat loss due to the low temperature in winter to ensure the normal operation of the pipeline.
The role of leather tracer cables in the insulation of asphalt main pipelines
The toughness of the asphalt is greatly affected by the temperature. When the temperature decreases, the toughness of the asphalt increases, and the drop in resistance of the asphalt during pipeline transportation increases; when the temperature falls below the freezing point, the asphalt solidifies, causing the pipeline to clog and the conveyor belt to come to trouble. Therefore, electric heating and heat preservation during the transportation of asphalt are very important.
