Selection of metal hose length

Selection of metal hose length
After the minimum bending radius of the metal hose is determined, the length of the metal hose must be correctly selected. A hose that is too long will cause instability, increased flow resistance, and additional mechanical damage and vibration. A metal hose that is too short may not be able to achieve the purpose of compensation, vibration reduction, noise elimination, etc., and may also cause excessive bending stress. Affect lifespan.
Used as axial displacement hose length, the metal hose itself cannot perform axial expansion and contraction (i.e. hose stretching), but if the hose is bent and installed, axial compensation can be achieved.
Note that in the calculation of the length of the metal hose, the length of the joint
is substituted by the length of the joint of the pipe. If the length of other joints
is used to replace the length of the joint of the pipe
it can be metal Hose working bending angle
Lateral displacement compensation hose length
The length of a lateral displacement metal hose is determined by its design bending radius and lateral displacement. Under certain circumstances, the length and bending radius of the metal hose are larger, but the angle must be less than
degrees, which is generally equal to
degrees.
Note that in the calculation of the length of metal hoses, the length of the joint
is calculated based on the length of the pipe. If other joint forms are selected, the length of the joint of the pipe shall be replaced with other
lengths
That's it.
