Does anyone have any insight on how to properly model a flange connection on a boiler?
I was given nozzle loads and moments for a boiler that I am connecting to.
I am running a stress analysis of my HW pipe. I typically model anchors as non rigid. allowing for roughly 1/16" of total movement at...
Hello I am modeling a 16" HW pipe crossing a building expansion joint. There is movement in the X,Y, and Z direction.
Due to both coordination & cost the owner does not want to use a product to take the minimal movement and instead wants the pipe geometry to take it.
I believe this is fine. I...
