How does one determine the required cover plate thickness at a certain pressure and temperature for an ASME B16.5/16.47 Blind Flange? I know how to do so for an Appendix 2 flange.
Thanks!
 
See ASME B16.48 for line blanks to NPS 24.
 
What do you mean by "line blanks?" Can you direct me to a web page for this information?
Thank You!
 
See UG-34 of ASME VIII if flange pertains to pressure vessel.
 
ASME uses the term blanks where some use other terms such as skillets or blinds.
