Dear engineers,
It is the first time I design a thick wall expansion joint follow ASME sec VIII div 1 to get U Stamp for the heat exchanger.
I am confusing the material use for calculate and fabricate the expansion joint.
Is it SA-240 304 or SA-182 F 304?
I'm using SA-182, but the search result...
Hi guys,
I'm currently dealing with an ASME VIII-1 - 2021 vessel with a design temperature of 649 C.
The material required is stainless steel. So as in ASME II-D - 2021, 304L has max. temp at 649 C while 304 has a G12 note for C>=0.04% for temp. >550 C.
That is kind of conflict, don't you think...
Dear Engineers,
I am running into a problem finding or calculating Yield Stress (MPa) and Ultimate Tensile Stress (MPa) for SUS310S and SUS316 using ASME Section II Part D to match the table as attached.
I am running FEA based on ASME Section VIII Div.2 Part 5.3.3 - Elastic-Plastic Analysis...
