Dear All,
Due to a human error, one of the rectangular diesel tank was exposed to significantly higher pressure than its design conditions. As a result, bulging in tank was observed. The maximum deviation from the true vertical plane is 83 mm. Certain internal welds were also cracked which...
We have a little variety in diameters, however, as a test case, we are taking NPS 10 pipe (API 5L).
As far as code / standard is concerned, we need to exactly identify under which code / standard or even the design procedure (FEA) should this case fall.
Originally, we started with API 6A...
We have a flange in a pipeline from wellhead with a design pressure of 8800 psi. Originally it was under API 6A but due to temperature constraints, it is now out of API 6A's scope.
My question is can we design this flange as per ASME B&PV Code Section VIII Div I Appendix 2 (considering the fact...
