GRE PIPE MANIFOLD STRESS CALCULATION

Such small valves should probably not need support other than what the pipe provides.

Einstein gave the same test to students every year. When asked why he would do something like that, "Because the answers had changed."

What you think ?

No.

Quite frankly this is not a great design as it is very difficult to properly support these valves and any differential movement in the header will create large forces at the tee connection.

You've got more than an issue trying to support the valves IMHO.

GRE manifolds are not great things to work with.

Remember - More details = better answers
Also: If you get a response it's polite to respond to it.

In my opinion, I think supporting valves from their flanges is more safe for the GRE piping system than supporting from the pipes.
what you think for a DN100 GRE piping system ?
