In this tutorial, we have shown a hightemperature fluid flow in a pipe through a TSection and the effect of temperature on the Pipe Material. The deformation of the pipe caused due to the fluid temperature has been analyzed. The temperature distribution effect from the ANSYS Fluent has been used as a thermal load in the pipe body Structural analysis. The pipe deflection has been found out along with equivalent stress and thermal strain.
