    Pipe Freezing Time: 150NB Steel Pipe in -15C

    Cheers Travis. Appologies for the lack of detail. The working temperature is 5 C and the pipe runs 1.5m horizontal with a 2.5 m vertical climb feeding a storage tank. I similarly suspect it may require trace heating but do think it is borderline.

The parameters are that the pipe must not freeze solid given 5 straight days of -15 C with static flow. Wind chill is negligible. The...
