Heat-Tracing
The term heat tracing refers to the continuous or intermittent application of heat to pipelines or tanks to compensate for ambient heat loss.
Among the main uses of heat tracing;
- Freeze protection,
- Viscosity control,
- Keeping fluids at process temperatures,
- Preventing gas condensation,
- thawing etc. prevention of separation of liquid components
Examples
- Freeze protection of piped water,
- Transfer of molten process chemicals such as phosphoric acid, sulfur, and p-xylene
- Low-viscosity maintenance of pumped fluids including petroleum products, vegetable oils and syrups
- Rafinerilerde yakıt gazının yoğunlaşarak istenmeyen yanmaların engellenmesi,
- Preventing the condensation of moisture in natural gas transported in pipes,
- Prevention of freezing of control valves and compressor damage,
- Prevention of condensation for prevent wet hydrogen sulphide from causing high corrosion.
