Hi All,
All things being equal would the ID of a 316L SS Pipe corrode faster in theory if it were constantly full of fluid or drained between transfers? Seemed like a straightforward answer at first until I noticed posting with respect to corrosion rings in vessels at the junction of liquid to...
Thanks for the responses. It was probably wishful thinking on my part but I'm not sure it was as outrageous a proposition as BigInch is suggesting. The strength tables must be set up to list the minimum yield and tensile stress that a material can exhibit and still be labelled as that material...
Does anyone know of an allowance in B31.3 that lets a Designer use actual Yield Stress values of material taken from the associated MTR rather than the values published in the strength tables?
We have a piping system that had to have extensive stress analysis done with a lot of manipulation of...
I'm currently trying to validate a Pressure Vessel for use as a blast containment vessel for tubes under reasonably high pressure and temperature (1885 psig @ 600°F) in an R&D test application. There is a fair amount of literature on equating the energy produced by a BLEVE (Boiling-Liquid...
