Is WRC-107 acceptable to ASME VIII Div.1 for calculation of external loads on nozzles.
I don´t have any program for WRC-297, what is the difference between these two standards.
Calculation of tubesheets.
I´m designing floating head heatexchangers with double tubesheets, TEMA Fig. RCB-7.126.
The inner tubesheets are as follows.
Fixed side: Tubesheet gasketed with shell, extended as flange.
Floating side: Outside packed tubesheet.
The outer tubesheets are as follows...
To use M=1 in calculating tr of head, all reinforcement has to be entirely within the spherical portion of the head.
Does that mean that as an example: The centre of a I/D 6in nozzle is located 5in from the edge of the spherial portion of the head, that if the area A1 and A5 is limited to a...
Calculation of flange acc. to 2-4(9), pipe wall considered
to act as a unit with the flange.
Is it OK to calculate the flange/pipe unit as an optional integral flange even though there isn´t a full penetration weld between the pipe and flange, using loadings and dimensions acc. to fig. 2-4(7)...
Torispherical head, tensile strength exeeding 70000 PSI.
Is it OK to use max. stress values as given in tables referenced in UG-23 when nozzle is located in the spherical
Part of head
