I'm trying to calculate a Coil of Stainless Steel (basically 304) with water vapor at 6bar, the dimensions are DN20 std schedule. Could someone help me with the norm that should I use: ASME, EN or ANSI B31.x?
Thanks in advance!

I think maybe that question was part of the OP's question.

Mike, i'd like to calculate the required thcks under conditions of normal operation and test. The question is should i use ASME viii div1, EN13445, ASME B31.3, any of them?
 
What's the service or application?

Is it in a pressure vessel where ASME could be applied? That might allow others to give you some guidance on what code(s) 'could' apply. Where are you located, that's also another factor.
 
TDSK, the pipe coil is used for heating externally (inside has vapor at 6bar) a pressure vessel, I've been taking a look to the calcs for similar equipments and i'll use ASME viii. Thanks a lot to everybody.
