hehe, cause it was designed 1971 and the pipe is already there. The code is ASME B31.8.
But when it was designed the temp is -20 degree but now they are going to lower it to -65 degree, that's why we have to control.
hi, waterpipe,
I only calculate the stress according to the given configuration. It's our client who design the pipe.
and I am also worry about that the 45 degree connection will give me a lot of trouble.
best all, the problem is solved partly for the 45 degree Y-stuk. Here is the attachment of the study, unfortunately, it is in Dutch.

Thanks Duwe6, we shift the codes according to client's design. Different clients also use different codes.
In this case, i will take a deep look at ASME, in previous case i only search the material specification.
To europipe,
we do have the EN13480(English) but i do not use too often.
The NL...
Thanks Duwe6.
I am really not familiar with American codes, most of the cases we use Nederlandse Code. And the program is also according to NEN.
So it is the first time that i search the ASME B31.3....
Anyway i will take a look.
The program has a combination calculation with and without...
My company using Nederlandse Standard and ASME and Germany cause we are in NL, you could try google and search tu delft library, they also have standard but you have to buy. And most of them are in Nederlandse
hehe, sorry sorry, i am a bad questioner!
Yes, the configuration for the gas statio is really big. And we don't use fine element program.So i guess the calculation is quite concept in the program i use.
the operating pressure is 7 bar, operating temprature is different from mainleiding and...
another question,
for tee stuk, SIF has out-plane and in-plane, how are these two factors influence the stress?
For example,
SEOT=Sqr(SXIT^2+SFIT^2-SXIT*SFIT+3TZUT^2), just multiply the factor with the detail stress?
Regards

Hallo guys,
I am a new fish here and also for the pipe stress analysis.
I am busy with a new project which contains lots of 45 degree reinforcement connections. The transport medium is HC Gas. We use Ple4win for the pipe analysis but it's impossible in the program to give a more than 5 degree...
