Is there any commercially available software for MEchanical design of Hairpin heat exchanger? Thanks for your time

Hi DSB123 , Isthill The pipeline is overland only and not buried; If Caesar can not do this, is there anyother package? Thanks for your tips

Hello I have to do stress analysis of cross country (Fuel gas) piping. Though I had done the stress analysis for in plant piping,this is new for me. Are there any special considerations which I must take care? I am going to do the analysis in Caesar. Thanks all.

Yes, I have decided to use stainless steel stiffener to avoid future problems. Thanks to all of you

Thanks, Prex

Hi Experts I have a pressure vessel made of stainless steel designed for vacuum (design temperature 200 deg.C). I need to have stiffeners; according to design carbon steel stiffener is sufficient. From the point of view of welding, is it advisable to use only stainless steel stiffener? (I have...

Is there any limitation on the maximum l/d ratio that can be used for a hozl. vessel? I want to use only two saddle supports. thanks for your help N.SEKAR

Hi all DOes ASME SecVIII has anything to say about the L/D Ratio to be used for a vertical vessel? I am designing a continuous blow down tank in a boiler system.I am just wondering if there is any guideline to find out the optimum L/D Ratio thanks for your time and help

Hello We are designing a piping system for the Heavy water Upgrading plant for one of the existing Nuclear Power Plant of 220 Mwe PHWR. Can any one of you suggest what special precautions apply? Thanks for sharing your experience. REGARDS

SABIRHUSSAIN What is your application? REGARDS

The German equivalent for A105 material is 15Mo3. Actually 15Mo3 is even superior since it has some alloying elements, while A105 is a carbon steel forging. good luck

The Deaerator is normally a pressurised vessel, while the condensate tank is an atmopheric tank only. The low pressure steam connection must be given to the deaerator, where the steam heats the water to expel the dissolved oxygen in the water. good luck

hI I am designing a exhaust steam duct at the back of steam turbine connecting the aircooled condenser. I have to select proper expansion bellows (metallic) and calculate the anchor forces and order the right expansion bellows. Any references on how to do this? I am using Caesar-II pipe stress...
