Thank you for all of your help. I believe this needs a little more information from me. Yes thermal expansion is small, though axial stress seems to be high. The system is on a very small skid 48" x 192" x 76" tall. The skid has no room available around this 2" sch40...
I have a 2" pipe line 36" long running at 1500 psig and 300 degrees F, fixed between a pump and a tank. The thermal expansion has placed to much stress on the pipe line. I am having trouble finding an expansion joint to handle the pressure, temperature and material (Hastelloy C-276)...
