Metal HoseTechnical DataA piping system which utilizes Thorburn flexible metal hose assemblies to absorb pipe movement must beproperly anchored and guided to assure correct functionning and maximum service life of the metal hose. Thebasic principles to be observed are:1) The direction of pipe motion must be perpendicular to the center line (axis) of the hose.2) The pipe must be anchored at each change of direction where a flexible metal hose is employed to preventtorsional stress.Typical examples of correct and incorrect guiding are shown below.RIGHTAnchor (1)WRONGThermal expansionHose assemblyGuideWrong...

If thissituation is encountered, the peak pressure must not exceed50% of the maximum working pressure.Flow VelocityHigh velocities in corrugated hose should be avoided as thecorrugations could be forced into resonant vibrations resultingin premature fatigue failure. Where the flow velocityexceeds 100 ft/sec for gas or 50 ft/sec for liquid in unbraidedhose and 150 ft/sec for gas or 75 ft/sec for liquid in braidedhose, an interlock hose should be used as a liner. When thehose is installed in a bent condition, these flow values shouldbe reduced by 50% for a 90 o bend, 25% for a 45 o bend andso on, proportionally to the angle of bend. Where velocityexceeds the above values, the next lager size of hose withliner should be used.Pressure LossAs a rough estimate, it can be assumed that the pressureloss in corrugated hoses is 100% higher than in new weldedsteel pipes, and in stripwound hoses it is 20% higher. Thismeans that in the case of corrugated hoses an increase indiameter of 15% and in the case of stripwound hoses of only4% is sufficient to reduce the pressure loss to the value ofthe pressure loss in steel pipes.
