Gasket/Flange Torque Calculating Software/Application
(OP)
Thanks In advance for any recommendations provided.
Can anyone recommend a user friendly and effective software to use to determine torque or tensioning requirements for flanges considering the gasket-flange material and geometry?
Any information would be of great help. Thank You!

RE: Gasket/Flange Torque Calculating Software/Application
Especially for ASME VIII-1 App. 2 flanges its not that difficult to make a calculation sheet. We use our own own made in excel.
If your design is to e.g. EN 1591-1, I would suggest you get familiar with the code to get some basic understanding, but in the end, buy software, as that specific code is too difficulty (IMHO) to be modeled in MS Excel.
TEMES fl.cal may be a good piece of software for EN 1092-1 flanges. I dont have experience with this software, but you can read some explanations in this topic.

For an example, go to websites for Hydratight, SPX, TenTec, HyTorc, or whomsoever you get your tooling from.
Good Luck
