Lenticular Expansion Compensators

Abstract

Compensators are used to take over pipes’ dilatation due to variations in the temperature of the heating agent. Generally, elastic compensators are used for heat network construction. Lenticular or bellows compensators are used to take axial, lateral, or angular displacement. The main objective of this paper is to create a presentation of lenticular compensators and to solve the dimensioning problem. A part of the CNE application refers to lenticular compensators. CNELEN application processes the necessary calculations for lenticular expansion compensators. Every compensator has corresponding formulas, in specific functions for processing the compensator database, for calculation all parameters.
