    Sec VIII Div 1 calculation formula

    Hello, I have a question regarding a shell calculation. Why is code using different formulas if it is outside or inside diameter? If long. stress formula is Sl=P*Rm/2t, why is code using P*(Ri-0.4*t)/2*E*t. Or if Circ Stress is Sc=P*Rm/t why it is used P*(Ri+0.6t)/E*t Why is, for the...

    HEAT TREATMENT PER UHA-44

    We have a 3/4" thk plate that we are rolling to 16" OD. material is SS 304. Per UHA 44 and strain is about 5%, and UHA 44 table is listing 304 material to be good up to 20% of strain. Everything looks OK, however, my problem is design temperature of 250°C. UHA-44 table is referring to...

    Static Pressure Question

    There is something that I would like to ask: Is there a Hydrostatic pressure present in closed system (filled with liquid) if pressure pumped into system is higher than static head? My answer would be that as long as we are within gravity field there must be static head present. Some of my...

    Section III threaded cover

    I am doing a calcs for a Threaded pipe cap on the Section III cl 2 vessel. Pipe cap is machined from a bar material and have a NPTF thread. If I am calculating head thickness per ND3325.2, is it required to do a thread shear stress calcs, or it is enough to address ND-3361.3 requirements for...
