Lens Ring Flange
Lens Ring Flange
(OP)
Hi all,
Has anyone had experience with performing ASME VIII-1 compliant calculations for a lens ring flange with geometry per specification SP-65? Can anyone point be towards a calculation method?
An image of this flange/gasket type is pictured here: Link
I found this thread from a while back, but there were no responses... Link
Thanks!

RE: Lens Ring Flange
Does anyone have a copy of the 4th edition of this text and could confirm the contents of pages 513-514 (not available on online previews)? I am not asking for a photocopy, just a confirmation that these pages show a calculation method for lens ring flanges. If so, I'll either buy a copy of the text or run out to the local university library.
Thanks to anyone that can help!

From page 505 of the Moss/Basic book:
If you can get a hold of Structural Analysis and Design of Process Equipment by Jawad & Farr, check out Chapter 10.7.9. In there you will find formulas that you could use in your Appendix 2 calcs.
