In the first step, the planner needs to identify why the LNG pipe is in need of being insulated. The two most common reasons for insulating LNG pipes are to minimize condensation on the outer surface of the insulation system, limit heat input to the LNG within, and control the processes that cause sublimation of the liquid within the piping. A common rule of thumb in the cryogenic pipe support industry is to limit the heat gain by the insulation system to the outer shell area of ​​≤8 Btu / hrft2 (25 W / m2). There are other possible purposes but most of them are achieved by addressing these two...

Cryogenic Pipe Supports, often called Cold Shoes, are a common component of low temperature piping service lines such as those found in liquid natural gas (LNG) processing plants as well as other lines involved in the liquification of..
