Section VIII Div 1 question:
Is it permissable to have a single pressure relief device for two pressure vessels in the same system ? Pressure relief device and piping are sized with the corect capacity to provide required over pressure protection.
metengr;I certainly appreciate your comments.If I were involved in this project, I would hire a reputable R stamp certificate holder. If I were the AI, I would require a PMI to be conducted as well as UT thickness gaugings. I would require calculations to be produced in accordance with the ASME...
DECODE, I would agree with you if this was new construction activity but this is not new construction in my opinion. This activity is post construction and the NBIC is the Code that is applicable.There is nothing in the NBIC that I can find that would specifically prohibit this situation. This...
The ASME Code symbol "U" stamp can only be used once at the time of new construction. An NB R stamp holder may issue R-2's for these vessels with the concurence of the AIA.The original ASME "U" stamped data plate may remain on one vessel.
The ASME Boiler and PV committees met this week in New Orleans at the Sheraton hotel on Canal street. A presentation was given on Sunday pm concerning the Div 2 rewrite. You can get a copy of the presentation by contacting the ASME office at the hotel today or ASME NY office next week.
AF-402 3rd sentence states"The exemptions for post weld heat treatment in Tables AF-402.1 and 402.2 are not permitted when the vessel is designed for lethal service. (AG-01.1(c)...."
However, the Notes of Table AF-402.1 for P1 material (2)(b)1,2,3,4, list conditions where heat treatment is NOT...
Operating pressure is 150 bar. My concern is the design temperature although 104 C is not high temperature. Does anyone have experience with disbondment in this temperature range ?
We have a vessel with shell material SA 765 Gr II clad with inconel alloy 625. Design temperature is 104 C. We will fit a non load bearing internal( alloy 825 ) to the shell. We plan to fillet weld (ESW process) the internal directly to the cladding. Vessel is in sour gas service.
Is hydrogen...
