Dear All,
Now we are designing a vessel with shell as 12" XS pipe and Alloy 625 weld overlay inside and vessel ID after weld overlay is 284mm..
In the above vessel weld consumables to be used for shell to shell joint(category B)is alloy 625 but the vessel shell is designed for Carbon steel SA...
Dear all,
Do we have to check the non std. flange in hydrotest condition as per appendix -2 of ASME Sec VIII Div -1? If so PV elite software is taking care of it or not ?
As per my understanding PV elite is taking care of the Shell and Head part during hydrotest. If we model a body flange in...
Dear All,
I have a column(U2 stamp) design with a heat exchanger attached to it with help of saddle, Client have provided us the Fx,Fy,Fz loads for both fixed and sliding saddle.
Note that the vertical axis of column and heat exchanger is parallel to each other but the heat exchanger is...
Dear All,
Kindly go through the below query and let me know your valuable feedback...
Recently we have a vessel with SA 516 Gr. 70 base material and SS 316L internal cladding for corrosion resistant.. The max thickness of shell and dished end is 10 mm only. Design code is ASME Sec VIII Div 1...
Hi Everyone,
I have query regarding inspection opening requirement for U-tube heat exchanger with respect to ASME.
In the MDR we have to mention the inspection opening details provided for each vessel constructed under ASME, so in case of Heat exchanger can we mention channel and shell flange...
Is there any special consideration is required for leg support design as per Asme sec viii div 2 , part 4.15
Special consideration means part 5 requirement or FEA.

Can we design saddle support on shell flange of a heat exchanger?
One of the heat exchanger(DIV-2 & TEMA -R) currently I am designing is having fixed saddle support on its shell flange(Due to less space) and i am not able to design this saddle in PV elite software.So please suggest me how to...
One of our client is asking us to use 316(Dual grade) material for Div-2 vessel and they need mechanical properties of material as per 316 and chemical composition as per 316L(carbon content less than 0.03%).
I believe that the mechanical design of the vessel shall be based on 316L allowable...
