[tongue]Hi all,
I am wondering if someone could kindly help me with this problem I am facing here. It's with regards ASME B31.3 Chapter IX High Pressure Piping. The formula for the minimum pressure design thickness is given as t = (D - 2co)/2 * [1 - exp (-p/s)]. From my understanding, the...
Hi LittleInch,
Thank you for your reply. That's what I thought initially, but thinking there must be a reason why the factor of [2 - sin (beta)] is chosen and not [1 - 0.5 sin(beta)] for instance. Anyway, thank you!
Hi LittleInch,
Thank you for your reply. I might have been doing it the wrong way, but attached is a sketched diagram which I used to find out the required area, A1. But, geometrically I could not work out the required area and this might be because of my mistake - would be grateful if you...
Hi there, I am a new graduate and have been recently introduced to ASME B31.3. I stumbled upon section 304.3.3 Reinforcement of Welded Branch Connections and I am wondering if someone could please kindly explain to me how to derive the formula for the area required, A1 = th*d1 [2 - sin (beta)]...
