Hello all,
I am designing a closed drain drum using PV Elite.
Size: 75" ID and 18.67' S/S.
Design P is 125psig @120 deg F.
Mat'l is CS + 3mm.
My piping designer has done wall thickness calculation and selected SCH 40 for the pipes.
Using this schedule for my 4" nozzles fail in PV Elite...
Good say all,
Please i want to know the meaning or representation of what each terms in ASME material stands for:
SA 516 Gr 70.

516 -
Gr 70 -
Please i would appreciate any assistance.
Thanks.

A vessel diameter 3500mm, barrel length 9800mm, design pressure of 5.17barg, the design temperature of 90 degrees Celsius, the wall thickness of 11.11mm, with checking saddle PVelite, ** Warning: One or more Stresses Exceeded its Allowable ** alarm, Circ. Stress at Horn of Saddle -Actual is...
HEY GUYS I'M WANT TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BTW JOINT EFFICIENCY AND LONGITUDINAL & CIRCUMFERENTIAL SEAM EFFICIENCY IN PV DESIGN.
Thanks.

ok, for clarity, i am designing an MP Separator, design condition is 33barg pressure, @100 deg C with vessel diameter 2.4m, T/T length is 7.3m.
The MDMT is showing a warning for the computed. the selected is -20 deg C, the computed is 35 deg C.
the warning is as highlighted above, that the...
Hi guys, please what can i do to reduce the MDMT of a pressure vessel. I have this warning at the end of the design [highlight #FCE94F]"Warning: Computed overall MDMT was higher than the required value !".[/highlight]
Although ok with client spec but i there anything i can do to influence the value
