1 Cold salt pipeline heating
Cold salt pipelines generally require a temperature of about 300 °C, and the design temperature should not exceed 400 °C. It is required that the electric heating system be able to preheat the pipeline at the first power plant start or restart after shutdown, and can maintain the normal operating temperature of the cold salt pipeline (typically 300 °C). After the introduction of molten salt Select 316L mineral insulated armored heating cables or 825 alloy seamless pipe can be used for external protective pipe. The temperature of the cold salt pipeline is relatively low, and the heating cable is not in direct contact with the molten salt. Choose a suitable heating cable and pay attention to its uniform and close laying to the pipeline during construction.
2 Hot salt pipeline heating
Hot oil pipelines should generally maintain a temperature of about 500 °C and the design temperature should not exceed 600%. It is required that the electric heating system can preheat the pipeline at the first start of the power plant or restart after shutdown, and can maintain the normal operating temperature of the hot salt pipeline (usually 509 °C) after molten salt is introduced. When selecting armored mineral insulated heating cables for the outer protective pipe, a seamless 825 alloy pipe is commonly used. The nominal heat resistance of the heating cable should not be lower than 600 ° C, and the insulation resistance at high temperatures of 500 ° C must meet the power transmission requirements, during construction it should be laid evenly and close to the pipe in order to prevent local overheating.
3 Molten salt storage tank heating
Molten salt storage tanks are divided into cold salt storage tanks and hot salt storage tanks. Usually 260 ℃ ~ 575 ℃, the design temperature is usually from 40 ℃ to 575 ℃. It is required that the electric heating system be able to preheat the storage tank at the first start of the power plant and maintain the normal operating temperature of the storage tank after passing the molten salt. Since the molten salt storage tank is a thick cylindrical tank, it is installed directly on the floor, and the reinforced mineral insulated heating cable cannot exceed the minimum liquid level when installed, and only the installed on the outer wall of the tank cannot meet the temperature of the heating requirement of the molten salt storage tank. Therefore, the heating cable must be installed on the outer wall of the tank and the inner surface of the bottom at the same time. The heating cable installed on the inner bottom is in direct contact with the high temperature molten salt. When choosing the heating cable, the outer protective tube material is usually 825 alloy seamless pipe. During production, the wall thickness of the outer protective tube should be appropriately increased.

Electrical heating installation precautions
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.
