Abstract
In the pipe systems of atomic power and chemical plants, the bend angles of pipe bends which absurb the longitudinal thermal deformation of the straight pipes are relatively large. On the centrally, the angles of pipe bends with straight pipe lines are small. In this study, parametric survey of the pipe bands subjected to in-plane bending is analyzed by the finite element method Numerical examples are shown for pipe bends with different bend angles and the results are shown and discussed.
