Designing demountable sealed joints for low-temperature systems

  • Published:
Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Aims and scope

Design calculations are presented for demountable sealed joints working at cryogenic temperatures. Basic working formulas are given. Recommendations are made on using sealing elements to provide sealing in joints at low temperatures. Two forms of self-sealing are considered (radial and axial).
