    ASME VIII DIV. 2 PAR. 5 - SELF LIMITING STRESSES

    Dear members, I am designing the top support of a column with ASME VIII div. par.5 elastic approach. Idea of the system is attached. Building the FEA model is not a problem: my concern is on theory. Loads on my support are the sum of a primary component ( weight of pipe ) and a secondary...

    Multiple load cases on Workbench

    Did you ever use ANSYS to evaluate Euro Code compliance of a silo / a structure? Idea is have some basic loads ( pressure, weight, wind, earthquake ) and starting from them evaluate al long list of combinations. Coefficients and combinations are clear, this is not the topic of this post. If I...

    Mesh for heat transfer advise

    Hi, I am new of the forum and I posted the following post on "Mechanical Engineering - Heat transfer" but after that I found this section, dedicated to ANSYS that is more correct I think. So I moved the post here deleting the old one on the heat transfer section. Currently I am involved on a...

    Serviceability Criteria on ASME VIII div. 2 par. 5

    Hi TGS4, with design conditions are you referring to the real design condition of the equipment ( 10 bar ) I think, right? So under deformation check no amplification factors ( 24 bars ) has to be considered. Frankly speaking I agree with you but there is a part in the code that appears not so...

    Serviceability Criteria on ASME VIII div. 2 par. 5

    Good afternoon, I am currently working on a FEA of a rectangular vessel. Idea is validate it by ASME VIII div.2 par 5 using elastic plastic approach. I allready done this activity so combination, safety rate to apply are clear. No problem on convergence: that means vessel is ok considering...
