    Pig receiver - Steam out?

    @LittleInch, I am not the only designer in this project. For your information I have access to all information related to this project. However, the head of eng. group has asked me to redesign this equipment assuming a pressure vessel rather than a pipleline component. I might be a new member...

    Pig receiver - Steam out?

    @gr2vessels Thank you for your reply. I meant if steam out is needed then probably an opening should be designed as well for this purpose.

    Pig receiver - Steam out?

    Hello everyone, Is there any standard about the pig receivers regarding weather to consider a steam out condition and nozzle or not? (length:12010 mm, OD: 30 in, lethal service, operating pressure: 127.2 barg and operating temperature: 35/52 C) Thanks!

    design pressure, MAP, MAWP, hydrostatic test, horizontal vessel

    Thank you everyone. Just for your information I double checked the drawing and LittleInch is right, OD is 30 inches not ID. Also of course the designer should consider the pipeline ID (and pig size) when deciding on the receiver ID. Regards,

    Design Pressure, MAWP, Operating Pressure

    Hello everyone, I wonder if someone can clarify for me, according to ASME VIII div 1 and 2 how I can specify the Design Pressure and MAWP with respect to Operating Pressure for a vessel under internal pressure. Thank you!

    design pressure, MAP, MAWP, hydrostatic test, horizontal vessel

    Thank you @LittleInch . It was very helpful. You're right, it is a 30 inch pig receiver. Sorry! Just to be clear about the pressure, the operating pressure is 127.2 barg. Does it mean that the design pressure should be also set to 127.2 barg? Also do you have any comment regarding what the...

    design pressure, MAP, MAWP, hydrostatic test, horizontal vessel

    Hello everyone, I have a couple of questions about designing of a horizontal pressure vessel (to be more specific, a pipeline pig receiver) according to ASME Sec 8 div 1. TL to TL length is 12010 mm and, ID is 76.2mm, lethal service, operating pressure is 127.2 barg and operating temperature is...
