• ABOVEGROUND PIPING
Aboveground piping are pipelines above the ground
level. Pipes are protected from corrosion by painting.
Before painting pipes should be properly blasted to make
surface rough.
PIPELINES
• Pipelines are defined as long series of pipes usually of
large diameter often underground with few fittings and
equipments mostly pumps and valves (mainly to control
the flow, that are laid with an intention to transport any
fluid (liquid or gas) over long distances.

INSULATION
• INSULATION - Insulations are done to prevent heat
transfer. When hot fluid flows through pipe then
generally pipe is insulated.
• There are two primary reasons for insulating the pipe
carrying hot fluid.
Containing the heat inside the pipe. Insulation preserves
the heat of the fluid. It is called Hot Insulation.
Personnel safety, so that people do not get burn injury by
touching hot surface of pipe. It is called Personnel
Protection Insulation.
• Cold pipes are also insulated.
Cold or chilled fluid carrying pipes are insulated to
prevent heating of cold fluid from outside. It is called Cold
Insulation.
Some times cold pipes are insulated to prevent
condensation of atmospheric water vapour on pipe
surface. It is called Anti-Sweat Insulation.
• Other types of Insulation
When gas flows through pipes at high velocity, it creates
noise. In such cases pipes are insulated to reduce noise. It
is called Acoustic Insulation.
Some times pipe and it’s content are heated from
outside, by heat tracing element. In that case pipe along
with heat tracing element are insulated to conserve the
heat of the tracer. It is called Heat Tracing Insulation.
• INSULATION MATERIAL - The insulating material should
be bad conductor of heat.
• There are two basic categories
• 1) Fibrous Material, which has large voids full of air
between fibers - Cork, Glass Wool, Mineral Wool, Organic
Fibers. Note stagnant air is a bad conductor.
• 2) Cellular Material, which has closed void cells full of air -
Calcium Silicate, Cellular Glass (Foam Glass),
Polyurethane Foam (PUF), Polystyrene (Thermocol), etc.
Some times Cast material like Cement Plaster or Plaster
of Paris are also used.
• INSULATION CLADDING - Insulation materials are
generally soft or fragile. So the outer surface of insulation
are protected with Aluminum sheet or GI sheet cladding.
TYPES OF FLOW
STEADY OR UNSTEADY FLOW
• In steady fluid flow, the velocity of the fluid is constant at
any point.
• When the flow is unsteady, the fluid’s velocity can differ
between any two points.
• Steady-state flow refers to the condition where the fluid
properties at a point in the system do not change over
time. Otherwise, flow is called unsteady.
VISCOUS OR NON-VISCOUS FLOW
