LittleInch, completely clear and thank you. DM

Hi guys, I have a question that I have not been able to find an answer to in any handbook or paper. Does exist any rason than lenght (of minor barrel) of pig receiver has between 100 to 200 inch more that pig launcher? I had seen the "Pipeline Rules of Thumb Handbook 8th Edition 2014" Table...

Hi guys, Anyone please could be help me with: Does exist any para. in ASME B31.4 about the maximum lenght to welding leg for branch joint? (1,5 times Th, or similar) I have branch (24 inch) and header (36 inch) pipe, both in WT = 9,53 mm and Pd = 280 psi, I need 15 mm min. of welding leg and...

Hi guys, I am looking for ... if exist... a standar design to "high pressure hydrostatic test bunker", and thus be able to define the critical loads (is it a projectile like a nut at 200 km / h ?, bursted flange ?, is it a pipe that fails longitudinally, is a leak of water or air ?, the...

LittleInch 1. ok, thanks. Then I understand that I can to made the basket filter body with "fishmouth" for the branchs. 2. If I to define the thickness of the header in 9,53 mm ..... need reinforcement, but if wall thickness is 12,7 mm is not necessary because the minimun thickness to Pd = 285...

Hi mk3223 the answer to your question is NO. The basket filter must be covered under ASME B31.4, that is the final client requirement. In summary, the basket filter will be a spool (piping) designed per ASME B31.4

Hi guys, I must to make a design about ASME B31.4 for a special spool. This special spool is the basket filter body, with 36 inch header pipe and 24 inch to input and output. Pd = 285 psig, 12,7 mm WT in header, corrosion allow. = 0,0, Hoop Stress = 71 [MPa], ASTM A53B with Sy = 240 [MPa]...

Thanks LittleInch.... I think similar to your tips... In Fluor company (Chile), I have a good friend in piping discipline and he asked to others partners; they say him that in theses cases, Fluor Chile puts purchases orders to Alaskan Cooper. They recommended this supplier.. Please see the pdf...

Hi guys, I have a question and I need a tip. If I would want to buy a some supplier a "stub end" upon 24 inch, What standard should I specify him for to define the dimensions? because ASME B16.9 and MSS SP-43 only go to 24 inch. In the case that doesn't exist standard for this range, wich is...

Hi guys I have a doubt. API 2000 - 2014 in point 3.3.2.2.1 (eq (1)) says.... "The out-breathing volumetric flow rate Vop , expressed in SI units of cubic meters per hour of vapor/gas at the actual pressure and temperature conditions of the tank vapor space, shall be as given by Equation (1)"...

prex Thanks for your advice and help, but I apologize to you for my post and may be I am not writing clearly.

Thanks Trevor

Hy guys How I can to check the stress in hydrostatic condition when the corrosion tolerance is zero? Does is possible to define the MAWP equal to design pressure when corrosion tolerance is zero? My problem is follows: The MAWP must be calculated (equations) in corroded condition of vessel...
