    Consideration in designing number of Power Plant unit

    Dear All, I have seen several installation Power Plant in Indonesia with Total Capacity of 100 MW, they make it 2 x 50 MW. What is the reason of 2 x 50 MW installed, instead of 1 x 100 MW? Thank you.

    Relation between Soil Investigation and Steel Structure for Boiler

    HTURKAK, It means to design superstructure, we have to wait until soil type is known? Is that what you are trying to say?

    Relation between Soil Investigation and Steel Structure for Boiler

    GeorgeTheCivilEngineer, Yes, agreed. Superstructure loading data will make the foundations design more efficient. But the point of my question is that, why Soil Investigation is needed to design the superstructure? My understanding is that the design of superstructure has nothing to do with...

    Relation between Soil Investigation and Steel Structure for Boiler

    Dear All, I am having confusion when my Senior Engineer in Company said that "Soil Investigation will impact Steel Structure for Boiler". In my understanding, Steel Structure of Boiler will only be impacted by the load from the Boiler, wind, seismic, etc. And Soil Investigation will be used to...

    Minimum bypass capacity for a Power Plant Load Rejection Test

    Hi All, In commissioning a Power Plant, if bypass capacity is 40% and we want to do 100% Load Rejection Test, is it recommended to go ahead with Load Rejection Test? As if I am assuming, the excess load (60%) will go to safety valves? Is my understanding correct? Kindly share your experience...

    Master in Mechatronics or Engineering Management

    MintJulep, I ask for suggestion, please do not ask me back [dazed] TheTick, Yes, you are right. I am so confused right now, Sir. EnergyProfessional, Actually, I have talked to the Dean of the university and after I shared the same story above (regarding my current job and my purpose to...

    API STD 650 Section 5.7.4

    Thank you so much IFRs!

    API STD 650 Section 5.7.4

    IFRs, Based on what you said, "unless they are part of an assembly that requires stress relief". This means only for shell plate where nozzle attached (or etc.) requires thermal stress relief, right? For example a tank consists of 20 plates with 30 mm thick for 1st course, 1 of the shell...

    Material with Impact Property Requirements

    Thanks for the help weldstan!

    Material with Impact Property Requirements

    weldstan, Alright, I understand why you said "Not if the PQR is impact tested." If the PQR of A 573 Gr. 70 plate is already impact tested, then it is certain that WPS of A 573 Gr. 70 can be used for A 36 plate. But If the PQR of A 573 Gr. 70 is not impact tested and I want to use for A 36...

    Material with Impact Property Requirements

    weldstan, What do you mean by "Not if the PQR is impact tested."? So, In my case stated above, the WPS for A 573 Gr. 70 plate can be used for A 36 plate, right?

    API STD 650 Section 5.7.4

    Thanks JStephen, So, tank with shell thick more than 25 mm is not required to be stress-relieved. The thermal stress relief is required for nozzles, flush-type cleanout fittings and flush-type shell connections. IFRs, And that is for nozzles, flush-type cleanout fittings and flush-type shell...

    Material with Impact Property Requirements

    weldstan, Alright, there are material specifications which include impact temperature requirement. 212197, Thanks for the guidance! So, if I have a WPS for A 573 Gr. 70 plate which is P-No.1 Gr. No.2, I can use it for A 36 plate (in which it is classified as P-No.1 Gr. No.1) or vice versa...

    API STD 650 Section 5.7.4

    Dear All, Based on API STD 650 Section 5.7.4.1, thermal stress relief only applies to flush-type cleanout fittings and flush-type shell connections which are attached to 25 mm thick shell, right? If the shell thickness is 24 mm, we do not need to do thermal stress relief to flush-type cleanout...

    Material with Impact Property Requirements

    weldstan, What do you mean by Construction Code? So, you are saying that the impact property of a material depends on the MDMT? My understanding about impact property requirements is just like tensile requirements. For example in ASTM A 36, it is clearly stated about tensile requirements of...

    Material with Impact Property Requirements

    Dear All, I have read in this forum that if We have a WPS with same P-NO. material but different Gr. No., We can use the same WPS for that different Gr. No. material when the different Gr. No. material does not have impact property requirements. My question is how to know whether a material...

    API 650 Sec. E.6.2.1.1

    IFRs, After all the discussion we have had, I think I will suggest to use the required annular bottom thickness of 1/4" and then add 1/16" thick of corrosion allowance under 1/4" thick of shell. Thanks IFRs!!!

    API 650 Sec. E.6.2.1.1

    IFRs, Yea, I was thinking to submit a technical inquiry to API, but I am still not sure about my inquiry itself . Let me ask you this, if you're the owner of a company which want to build a tank and working with a consultant who recommends to use annular bottom plate thickness 5/16" under 1/4"...
