0.0. and
Wall Thickness
Using Tables U15 and U16, determine the tube 0.0. and wall
thickness combination that satisfies the following two conditions:
Proper tube material, type and size for a given application and
type of fitting is critical for efficient and trouble free operation of
the fluid system. Selection of proper tubing involves choosing
the right tube material, and determining the optimum tube size
(0.0. and wall thickness).
A.
Has recommended design pressure equal to or higher than maximum operating pressure.
B.
A tube that is too small causes high fluid velocity, which has
many detrimental effects. In suction lines, it causes cavitation
which starves and damages pumps. In pressure lines, it causes
high friction losses and turbulence, both resulting in high
pressure drops and heat generation. High heat accelerates
wear in moving parts and rapid aging of seals and hoses, all
resulting in reduced component life. High heat generation also
means wasted energy, and hence, low efficiency.
