What is the difference between elbow and bend in piping?

" All bends are elbows but all elbows are not bends." Infact, the pipe is bent to form an elbow. Elbows are pre-fabricated and are firm in design. There are issues with bends since the tickness at the bend radius reduces as we bend the pipe. Sharp bends are normally called Elbows. Bends typically have a minimum bending radius of 1.5 times pipe radius (R). If this bending radius is less than 1.5R, it is called Elbow. Reference to any international / industry standard need to be traced. 1.5, 3 & 4.5 R are the most common bending radii in industry.

What is the difference between long radius and short radius bend in oil and gas pipes?

The difference between the 2 is length and curvature. A short radius elbow offers a tighter turn than the long radius. The short radius elbow is cheaper and will fit into a tighter space.

Is short radius bend is suitable for steam pipeline?

Sure it is. You need to know, however, where to use it. for long runs of pipe with bends, it would be preferable to use long radius ells, to prevent excessive flexing of the fitting as the pipe expands and contracts due to thermal expansion. However, in short runs (less than 50 feet (or 15 meters)) of straight pipe without expansion joints and less than 300 degrees F (170 C) differential temperature, (steam temp. minus ambient temp.) short radius bends (or elbows) are more than adequate. As the diff. temp. increases the straight runs of pipe should be decreased in length, or expansion joints installed, to prevent excessive flexing at the joints and fittings.

Where 5D and 6D bends used?

5D and similar bends with a large radius are used in pipelines carrying sludge or slurry - such as in wastewater plants,and in pneumatic conveying systems . They reduce resistance to flow / pipeline losses and reduce the risk of blockage.
