摘要 |
The present invention relates primarily to a thermal insulating element (200) of cylindrical shape for a fluid-transporting pipe, comprising an envelope (204) of longitudinal axis (X), a thermal insulating material arranged in said envelope (204), the envelope (204) comprising a deformable annular region which has a first (212.6) and a second (212.12) cylindrical surface which overlap one another and are designed to slide relative to one another in the event of a displacement imposed by thermal loads applied to said pipeline-insulating element (200). The present invention also relates to a method of producing pipes for transporting fluids at high temperature, in particular hot gases, from elements according to the present invention by fitting a male connector of one element into a female connector of the other element. |
