    Vessel Vacuum Rating with Cylinder/Head Flange

    I've got a ASME Div 1 pressure vessel that needs to be designed for relatively low pressures (+10 psig to -2 psig, @ 275 deg. F) and I have a question about a flange that separates the cylinder from the F&D Head. The image below shows the location, so they would be able to pull the whole top of...

    Pipe Stress Expansion Joint vs Flex Hose

    Hello All, We are looking at a process line from the bottom of a pressure vessel to the suction side of a PD pump. Here's a snapshot of the stress model. 20" OD vessel, 6" piping, reduces down to 5" pump nozzle. You can see the vessel at the top anchored from it's support lugs, and the PD pump...

    Steam PRV Discharge Piping Layout

    I've got a sketch attached showing the layout and dimensions, it's a steam PRV with the discharge piping routing down to the ground level instead of exhausting upward. I'm not used to seeing a relief line routed like this so I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something. Are there any...

    Truck Unload Vapor to Thermal Oxidizer

    I have a case where a truck is loaded with a liquid product, and the vapor displaced during the fill is routed to a thermal oxidizer. A bunch of tank and truck unload station vapor lines tie into a header leading to the thermal oxidizer. There is a discussion about whether a blower is needed in...
