    Strange nozzle flanges description - R9

    Hi I am preparing a heat exchanger documentation for new exchanger based on old documentation. The heat exchanger is in Poland, and the old documentation is from Italy. In nozles table I have flanges description: 4" 150# WN-RF-R9-sch.40 and 3" 150# WN-RF-R9-sch.40. Do you know what R9 can mean...

    Floating head heat exch. calc - corr. factor fT

    Thank you very much. Yes it is simple, I use the ASME codes very seldom and it is my explanation. For fR I tried values from 1 to 1100 and was without influence on result in %. Now I can calculate correct fR Thanks again !!

    Which kind of PWHT for tank with KOH, HF, hydrocarbons

    Hi It is possible, that I will make design of horizontal pressure vessel with boot for potassium hydroxide (KOH), hydrofluoric acid (HF), hydrocarbons. It is a reconstruction design, old tank has more than 40 years. The tank is made from SA-515 gr 70, and had a post weld heat treatment. Do you...

    API650 tank with bottom cone - NDE

    I have checked, yes, design code for cone bottom isn't API but EN 1993-4-1 (in data sheet). This code was changed to API650 / ASME VIII div. 1. Now all parts of tank are acc. to American Codes - it was reason of change. Shell and roof is acc. to API 650 This tank will stand on foundation slab...
