Hi All,
I had a doubt about performing an FEA on an Flange bolted connection.
The flanges are designed as per ASME B16.5.
Line Size: 24in 900ANSI
MOC: A182 F316L
Stud and Nut: B7 & 2H
Torque on stud: Stud is tensioned to 50ksi and the torque applied is 8782 ft lbs (I converted this...

Hi All,
I did some modifications to my FEM.
Earlier we were not using a gasket in the assembly, hence the stresses from the bolt preload directly got transferred into the weld area causing it to go beyond the yeild value.
Also we are considering that the after welding the weld area will have...
Hi,
I'm new to FEA analysis. We design our valves considering wall thickness from B31.3 and the weld bevel dimensions as per B16.25.
Our valves are not failing at hydrotest pressure (1.5 * working pressure) during actual testing. But while performing FEA on the valve the weld joint is showing...
Hi,
I want to calculate the stresses generated at the Bolt connections (between the flanges of the valve and the pipe) due the working pressure of the fluid in a valve.
Is there a way by which we can avoid creating the flange of the pipeline and create a virtual wall to constrain the bolts...
Hi,
I want to calculate the stresses generated at the Bolt connections (between the flange of the valve and the pipe) due the internal pressure of the fluid in a valve.
Is there a way by which we can avoid creating the flange of the pipeline and create a virtual wall to constrain the bolts?
Thnx!
Hi John,
While inserting the base view in a drawing template I couldn't find the reference set option which is there while adding a component in assemblies. Could you inform me how to do that?
Thanx

Hi John,
Your approach is working fine till I have a single file for both the model and the drawing. But when I make a seperate file for the drawing and then link it to the model this intersection point is not visible.
We have to prepare seperate drawing files as there will be 3-4 part file...
Hi,
Please find the model. When we edit the sketch 2, the line 1 should be collinear with the edge marked in red(attached snap) and line 2 should be collinear with the edge marked in green.
Also if you enter the drafting enviornment of this particular model, I drew a arc and made it...

Hi,
I'm unable to constrain a line to be colinier to the edge of a cylinder previously extruded even after trying the different filters.
Even (in drafting enviornment) while inserting the base view the cylinder (side view --> circular end), entered the Active sketch mode and drew a cirlce. I...
Hi John,
Consider that I have created a datum plane at "X" distance from the origin in the master model. Now I want the distance to "X" for 2 part files and ".5X" to the remaining two part files. How can I do achieve this without calling this "X" dimension in the part families table of the...
Hi,
I'm using NX8.5 and both the ways are working fine.
John : After using the perimeter dimension, when I go to tools the expressions option is greyed out. So I had to right click on the curve and select Remove all Constrains. Is this the correct way?
Thank you!!
Hi,
In drafting enviornment, once a line is drawn and dimensioned its length can be changed by double clicking and then entering the required length. But the same is not happening while drawing a arc.
THanx
