Forum Post: Spring Hanger Thermal Movement

$

Hello, I am working on 2 different Autopipe models and the results of thermal movement given in the hanger selection report seem to me wrong. - First model: My colleague worked on a model. During her holiday, I copied and pasted her model without changing anything. When I performed a hanger selection, I found: Thermal movement=-20mm In her folder, I opened the hanger selection report she performed and I found: Thermal movement=-5mm - Second model I created a model with a spring hanger. -Z elevation is 1200mm. The delta T is (400°C - 21.1°C). So I expected a thermal movement around (400-21.1) * 1200mm * 18.1*10^-6 mm/mm/°C = 8.5 mm However, the thermal movement in the hanger selection report is -19.5mm. I don't understand the results. Could you please help me? Thanks, Julie
