(OP)
Ok I can ask now for a water PE pipeline design on a self owned property, what suystem is more practical, under ground or above? this would be a double system with 10 and 8 inches through 600 mtrs

RE: PE pipeline design
PE is a great material but has different properties to steel. One is long term creep under constant load. Hence it is a poor material to use between supports as it sags over time and needs constant support (i.e. a beam or similar) to prevent.
Also it has a thermal expansion co-efficient about 10 times that of steel.
So burial is a much better option, but at 80C, PE is not a good idea, IMHO though you might find some special PE which is rated at up to 80C.

RE: PE pipeline design
Yes it´s the same project.
My duty is to assist the civil engineers team to design the pipeline. And we will also ask for help from the manufacturer.
That´s what I thought, burial, thanks a lot

RE: PE pipeline design
It only goes to about 200 / 250mm diam?
At 80 C though it's still fairly low rated pressure.

RE: PE pipeline design
Be aware of the pipe ID changes if required for a lower DR pipe to accommodate the pressure rating.
