Temperature limit of ASME Section VIII Division 1 1

[Waqas-999]

My question is there any upper temperature limit up to which ASME section viii division 1 can be applied. or there is no such limit

 

[SnTMan]

Waqas-999, no upper temp limit as such in Sec VIII, Div 1, but rather upper temperature limits for materials as shown in Sec II, Part D.

Mike

The problem with sloppy work is that the supply FAR EXCEEDS the demand

The highest you can (currently) go is 982 deg C or 1800 deg F.

@XL83NL which clause of the code says that. or if it is from some other literature kindly mention it as well. Thank you

It’s from ASME IID, where the tables list the max temperature for the material under consideration, per the applicable design Code (column wise). Look e.g. for UNS N06617.
