When installing thermowells in a pipeline, a user must first answer several questions regarding their location, quantity, stem length, distance from each another, and effects on the process media. Thermowells are highly effective devices for protecting …
Flow tests by the National Engineering Laboratory in Glasgow confirm that thermowells with a ScrutonWell ® design suppress vortex-induced vibrations, a benefit especially for oil and gas pipelines with higher flow rates and small nozzle connections. Industrial …
The helical design has been used in a variety of applications to dampen flow-induced forces that can damage equipment. WIKA uses the same concept to stabilize thermowells and as an efficient and economical way to prevent thermowell mechanical fatigue and failure. One …
