    Reducer - FEA analysis

    Hello Actually we require a concentric reducer for a piping connection with unstandard thickness made with forging material. What we have done for this is we calculated the bigger end & smaller end connection pipe calculation & ensured the strength of reducer. But AI was not accepting this...

    Steam drum, Section I, how to stamp

    Steam Drum is the integral part of the Boiler. Hence it should be stamped with "S" only.

    Hello techies, We are using a fl

    that is ok, how the inclination done on the shell side & the plate side

    Hello techies, We are using a fl

    No drawing available. It is a general doubt raised when looking into it. How the value of a and b be calculated & the angle also? You can assume any pipe with flat head setup as per the Figure UW-13.2 (d)

    ASME Sec VIII Div-I Figure UW-13 (d) Flat head with pressure vessel

    Hello techies, We are using a flat head (End plate) for a pressure pipe and design as per ASME Sec VIII Div-I. we picked up the End plate design as per Figure UW-13 (d)(Attached the image for your reference here) In that case, what will be the value of a and b? How can we identify it. Since...

    Machining of Header/Pipe End plate -ASME Code

    Thank you all for your valuable reply. Hello Mr.MJCronin, Regret for the insufficient data provided by me. 1.we are designing the Boiler Super heater Header (Code of construction is ASME SEC-I ) in which both the ends of Header is welded with End plate (Circular flat end plate) 2.Pressure -...

    Machining of Header/Pipe End plate -ASME Code

    Hello Friends, I need a clarification on below issue. If we are providing 45mm thk end plate for an Header or pipe in fabrication drawing. But in Shop, available thickness is 50mm only.so they are machining the plate material to 45mm thick from 50mm thick plate. Whether ASME code allows to...

    Good afternoon, Whether we can i

    Good afternoon, Whether we can install the Attemperator (with spray water arrangement) in the vertical pipe instead of horizontal pipe? Is there any advantage/Disadvantages in using in Horizontal compared to vertical? Kind Regards, R. Ilanseran

    PROOF TEST FOR PIPE BEND (ASME B16.9)

    Hello Mr. Little Inch, Regret for the Inconvenience. Yes, this bend is produced by the Hot induction bending machine (Heated first & then pipe bend will be done). Actually we need to prove that our bending machine is capable for making pipe bend for the client. They are asking us to make a...

    PROOF TEST FOR PIPE BEND (ASME B16.9)

    Hello Mr. Little Inch, I had a small doubt in your statement that, straight Pipe will burst first before the pipe bend before it reaches the Min proof test pressure if we are using same material & thickness for pipe & pipe bend. My doubt is that pipe bend will have some thinning allowance, so...

    Two adjacent opening compensation while overlapping

    Dear Techies, I need a help in making compensation calculation for two adjacent opening in which the compensation limit in header overlaps. If this is the case, we need to go ahead with PG-38 as per ASME Section-I. Is any spreadsheet / any online tool available for this case to calculate the...

    ASME MATERIAL NOMENCLATURE

    Dear Techies, I had a very general doubt about the ASME Piping material nomenclature. For Ex: SA 335 P11 is the high alloy material in ASME Standard. In this 335 means .....What 335 originally means? Can anyone help me on this? Thanks in advance. Kind Regards, R. Ilanseran
