chicopee and DVWE, thanks for the input. I obtained the spec for SA-302 in ASME Sec. II, and it is a type of alloy steel. The plate is just over 3 inches in thickness so it is normalized as DVWE said.
So just to understand, in order to get a martensitic microstructure, it would have to depend...
Hello all,
I had a particular question concerning the fatigue crack growth data listed in Appendix F of API 579-1/ASME FFS-1 (2007 ed).
I am analyzing a pressure vessel constructed out of SA-302 Gr. B (mod.) material with a yield strength (Sy) of 100 ksi. Typically we use the Paris Law to...
Thx for replying jte, but it's not quite like in the previous thread you mentioned. The pressure vessel itself has a rectangular cross-section, but is configured in an "L" shape, not simply vertical or horizontal. It is a specialized hydraulic reservoir and is not code-stamped. I believe VIII-2...
Hi there,
Is there any ASME code or other standard out there that talks about L-shaped pressure vessels? I know that Section VIII Div 1 Appendix 13 covers non-circular vessels, but none of the geometry matches to what I am analyzing, which is an L-shaped hydraulic cart that sits on a platform...
