Hydraulic Burst Experiments and Pressure Calculations Analysis for PVC-UH Pipes of Common Diameters

Abstract

AbstractThe high-performance unplasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC-UH) pipeline is widely used in municipal water transport, and concerns about its structural safety are growing. To accurately calculate the burst pressure of the pipe, the bursting tests ...Practical ApplicationsThere are significant differences in material properties and structural-mechanical behavior between plastic pipes and metal pipes, so the formulas used to calculate the internal pressure bearing capacity of metal pipes are not fully ...
