Re: A tube burst-What happened?
Our 100 HP plant air compressor discharge is 190 F @ 100ish psi. It goes thru an air to air cooler & is about 120F before the dryer. Discharge of the dryer is about 90F. It goes into a steel storage tank. By the time it gets to the process it is more or less ambient. The expansion acts in the other direction & cools it.
