I would like to know how other stress engineers handle this kind of issues.
To model piping stress, being knowledge about the flexibility and maximum allowable loads on the piping connections is very important to get a real idea of pipe stresses and if reaction forces are ok. Approaches of...
Does anyone have experience with insulating whole pipe rack instead of individul pipes on the rack? Is this good application to use on thermal oil piping about 600 deg F? Thanks for your comments.
I have a designed boiler producing 100K LB/HR steam @150psig. Now I would like to have 300psig steam with same capacity. Does the higher pressure affect the boiler design? I knew it will change the thickness of steam drum and all the steam piping. What I want to know is if it will change the...
We are going to supply a thermal energy system like boilers, which is composed of a thermal oil heater and combustion cell, in Ontario. My question is that what is the clearance requirement from nearby gas train piping to this energy system or which standard I can find this specific requirement...
I am wondering what is the meaning of "12" in the equation of bending stress for pressure vessels. S=12M/(I/c)
In the usual stress fomula, only M/(I/c). Is it safety factor?
Thanks to make me clear!
I am conducting the stress calc for vessels on highway truck. Is there someone know how to deal with the external loads by accelerative force applied at the support of vessel. Can I apply the WRC 297 or 107 on this case?
Thanks a lot!
