Expansion bellows
Expansion bellows
(OP)
We are installing a 450 meters long 12" diameter steam line at 10 bars, is it normal to use multiple expansion bellows instead of expansion loops due to space limitations?

Only the Americans could invent a word like "utilidor". I suppose the study of it would be utilidorology!

You're right! It is a logical word that makes since and is useful. I suppose its a combination of "utility" and "corridor", perhaps? Had to be someone creative and intelligent.

RE: Expansion bellows
It deos sound a little funny. Its kind of like "rip rap". I had always heard people using it to refer to the broken-up chunks of concrete used to aid in shoreline erosion, etc... It wasn't until a few days ago that I actually saw it used on a technical document that I realized how fully accepted that silly term must have become. Where does it come from?

Rip rap appears in wikipedia, with pictures, as I commonly understand its meaning.
Utilidor appears in wikipedia in a more narrowly defined scope, pertaining only to Disney theme parks. Oh well.

It will be good to make a finite element analysis (FEA) of your piping system to see where are your piping stresses and system flexibility.
