Flanges
Flanges
(OP)
We don't have any FEA software in the offise so I'm looking for software that will help design a custom flange based on an ANSI B16.5 18" (we need to reduce the flange thickness and I have to check what pressure it will be good for).
Any advice will be gratefully received !

"ALL PRO. Axi Pro is an extremely powerful but easy to use flange analysis program using FEA techniques. It allows automatic 3D models; App2, BFJ, and prEN 13445 Codes; overturning moments and torsion; gap elements and initial tightening; interaction analysis (how does tightening one bolt affect others); and leakage prediction PPM, pound/year, and drops/ hour.

RE: Flanges
You can free download evaluation edition of a program for design and rating of pressure vessels and pressure vessel’s component. You can use it for one month.
You will find flange design option letting you rate any custom flange you want.
