operating case in pipepak

[Dan Codrut]

I am conducting a flexibility stress analysis using pipepak from algor on a superheated pipe designed at 525 deg C and 110 bar.

The computations are done following the B31.1 code.

I have encouterded some problems in finding the theory and formulas behind computations the software does in the operating case (weight+pressure+temperature).

Does anyone know how the program does this computations, and which is the routine behind results?

How is computed the allowable stress in the operating case?

Search the help file on B31.1 and then select B31.1 Code stress and the equations used are defined.
