68 kg is a reasonable answer given the lack of information provided.




Forces? Axial? Shear? Combined with pressure? If so, how much pressure?

Moments?

Temperature?

Applicable code?
 
Nah. 68.5 kg is more like it. But in the other direction. 8<)

(Same feedback as above = What force? How applied? What direction?)
 
Sorry By the lack of information.

There is a mistake

Is for a pump.But the flange is 4" DIN 2576 PN 10.Flow is 10 m3/h,maximum working pressure 10 bar.Working temperature 170ºC

How can I get the vaue of the forces ( in 3 axes( xyz)).
I think that the forces are caused by the weigth of the pipe, the working pressure of the pump,and another thing like dilatations.
Is there any formula to get an aproximates values of this forces.

Pipe diameter 6".
 
Use CeasarII and draw a nice support,
Get info from pumpvendor for allowable forces.
 
Now I'm even more confused.

Do you want to check that the flange can handle the loads you expect?

Or do you want to calculate the forces at your pump connection to compare to the pump's allowable loads?
