18、 length ofpipe.3.2.2 PEX-AL-PEX pipecomposite pipe produced by co-extrusion or extrusion of layers of polyethylene/aluminum/polyethylene bonded together with a melt adhesive andcrosslinked by irradiation or chemical means in combinationheat and moisture.3.2.3 pipe hoop stressfor simplicity the value

19、 of the hoopstress quoted assumes a homogeneous wall. Local values ofstress will vary with the different layers (see 3.2.3.1).3.2.3.1 DiscussionThick walled plastic pipes producedfrom one material have hoop stresses that vary through thewall, and are usually described by the Lame Theory. Thecomposit

20、e nature of the PEX-AL-PEX pipe, composed ofmaterials with very different Youngs Modulus values, will, onpressurization, not have a uniform stress distribution throughthe thickness of the wall of the pipe. The PEX-AL-PEX pipeshave a hoop stress distribution that differs substantially fromboth the th

21、ick and thin walled pipe cases.4. Pipe Classification4.1 Pipe DiameterThe PEX-AL-PEX pipes are classifiedby the outside diameter.4.2 Pipe Dimension RatioThe concept of dimension ratiois not relevant to PEX-AL-PEX composite pipes, and cannotbe used to relate pressure rating with total wall thickness.
