Hey all,
I am trying to determine which diameter to use in reinforcement calculations for a 12"x16" manway that is inserted into an ellipsoidal head. I know on the shell there is the F factor to take into account the difference between longitudinal and circumferential stresses, but I am not...
Howdy!
I am trying to understand the fluid mechanics theory to understand a problem I am trying to solve.
Say I have a system that has 2640 psig inlet pressure. This flow goes through a regulator and then through an orifice which leads to a pressure gauge that has a range of -30-0-30 psig.
If...
I am verifying the integrity of a pressurized piping system that is utilizing GHe. The inlet pressure is 2400 psig, and the outlet pressure is 200 psig. I am trying to analyze how the pressure on the outlet side will change if the pressure reducing valve fails. The relief valve on the outlet...
Hey there,
I am currently analyzing a vessel that uses an unstayed flat head that is bolted down with thirty two 1-1/8-8 bolts. The gasket is a full-face typed elastomer gasket that follows sketch (p) of Fig. UG-34. Generally, Appendix 2 is used to carry out calculations for the bolts and the...
