Hi

 

I know when start to charge hot fluid during start-up, it needs to do hot bolting for all

flanges' bolt/nuts.

What about charging a cold fluid (for example  -10C), does it need to do cold bolting?

 

Please advise!

I do not understand what cold/hot bolting actually stands for. I have extensive experience with +1°C and my reply is - yes, you need cold bolting. Hope this will help.

More details = better comments.
