Hi,
I am being expected to do piping stress analysis of inlet and outlet header which is basically a coil consisting of various tubes connected to individual inlet and outlet headers.
Headers are capped at one end, i.e. closed and at the other there are typical tubes configuration like in any...
Can i know the difference from point of view of thermal expansion & the role of different compositions.
Basically we are checking our exsiting superheater for new superior materials.
In general i know for higher grades the thermal conductivity decreases and the elasticity gets better(due to...
I want to understand that in such component designing what are general recommendations i.e.
a) Cycles to be used in analysis - Any general IDEA
b) Flange and Flued joint design thickness limitations ?
c) Thin walled joint design thickness limitations ?
d) Which type of expansion joints are...
1. My Heat Exchanger Software uses the formulas in TEMA RCB-8 to determine the value of the stresses for Expansion Joint design check.
2. And in same software check allowable stresses per ASME Section VIII, Div 1, Appendix 5.
My Question:
The software include checks for some but not all TEMA...
Dear All,
I am confused that if a compressor balancing line size is changed and modified from 3 inches to 6 inches what more I can check after performing the stress / flexibility analysis.
I was thinking regarding the process checks like high velocities and pressure drop, but these have...
Dear
My nozzle loadings are exceeding for exchanger inlet nozzle (drawings attached)
My piping parameters are as follows:
1. Piping material is SA 335 Gr 11 Cl 2 & dia 18 inches
2. Operating Temperature = 350 deg.C
3. Design Pressure = 30 kg/cm2g4.
4. Flange rating is 300 lb (Weld Neck)...
Dear All,
We have already procured a steam turbine and its existing piping is being checked by piping specialist. The loads on suction nozzle connection and combined resultants (i.e. Limit 3) are not passed as per code NEMA SM 23.
I just want to get some sort of help or any engineering opinion...
