The role of bellows compensator in the pipeline system.

The bellows compensator as a flexible pressure-resistant pipe fittings configured in the liquid transportation system, to compensate for the displacement of the pipeline or machine, equipment coupling end of each other, absorb vibration energy, can play a role in vibration damping, muffling, etc., with good flexibility, light quality, corrosion resistance, fatigue resistance, high and low temperature resistance and many other characteristics. Corrugated expansion joints and bellows heat exchanger presented and its many applications, bellows used as a coupling, compensation and heat exchange components have become important application areas, they have broken the appearance of the elastic components, to be used in electric power, metallurgy, petrochemical and central heating and other professional pipeline system, as a flexible coupling and thermal compensation components, can also be made into a heat exchanger in the heat exchange system. The traditional bellows type elastic element has been expanded to new application areas, which has become the development trend of bellows type components.
 
Corrugated compensator and other elastic components in a specified pipeline displacement and the link between the action of the load is called elastic properties, and displacement and load should be stored in the elastic range of the component material corrugated pipe components of elastic properties can be shown by functional equations, tables and graphs. The elastic properties depend on the layout and loading methods of the various elastic components. The elastic properties of the components can be linear or nonlinear, and the nonlinearity can be divided into two kinds of increasing and decreasing properties.
