A hot pipeline is welded to a flange which is supported by brackets connected to a nozzle. The pipeline with a flange can expand freely radially. Welded to the other end of the flange is a pipe, which can withstand an axial temperature gradient between a temperature T1 at the pipeline and flange, and a temperature t2 at a compensator and the nozzle. The axial expansion of pipe is accommodated by the compensator, which is welded to the pipe and at its other end to the nozzle. The pipeline, the flange, the pipe and the compensator are subject to the difference between pressure p2 in the vessel and the pressure p1 in the pipeline. |
