I would like to do a manual calculation for supports in a piping system and want to use the method outlined in the Piping Handbook. I need the position of the centroids for elbows, tees, flanges etc... for standard ANSI fittings. Does anyone know where i can find this information?
I want to size a PSV as per API RP 520 PT1. Two suppliers come up with different sizes for the same specified flow. I have checked this and come to realise that it is the discharge co-efficient that produces the different results.
According to API RP 520, one can use a discharge co-efficient of...
Does any one know what specs european valve manufactures (PE100 or PE80) manufacture and test HDPE valves to? I cannot find any reference in ISO 4437.
Can these valves (PE100) be used under the ASTM D2513 specs if they do not comly to ASME B16.40?
How do i calculate the pressure rating of pipe nipples. ASME B31.3 says that i should subtract allowances for threading, where do i find this dimension (thread dimension for subtracting from pipe WT) in ASME B1.20.1?
If i had a 1" SCH 80 seamless nipple (threaded to ASME B1.20.1 NPT) made of...
Hi, i am trying to find the pressure rating of a 6 inch SCH 40 ASTM A234 WPB equal tee according to ASME B31.8 (similar to ASME B31.3). The code requires a dimension Ro (radius of curvature) which the supplier does not have and is not sure about. I check some old material certs and it does not...
