Reinforcement Calculation for Welded Branch Connections

Reinforcement Calculation for Welded
Branch Connections: Any pipe having an opening, for branch connection will be weaken, if pipe wall thickness will not sustain the pressure.  In this case, pipe reinforcement is necessary to provide. The amount of reinforcement required to sustain the pressure, shall be determined in accordance with below reinforcement calculation. Added

Pipe Wall Thickness Calculation as per Code ASME B31.3

Pipe
Wall Thickness Calculation as per Code ASME B31.3: Pipe wall thickness calculation will be done per ASME B31.3 Clause 304.1.2 (3a), on account of internal pressure of pipe with below method. Basic Equations used for thickness
calculation are, t m =
t + c   and further t is calculated as
per below,      PD t  = —————-  &nbRead More…

Surge Relief Valves

What is Surge Relief Valves? In the event of the surge, the majority of the pressure is absorbed in the liquid and pipe, and just that quantity of liquid which is necessary to relieve pressures of unsafe proportions is discharged to the surge relief tank, by the way using this pressure is discharged is called surge relief valves. Surge Relief Valve Skids Typical
Surge Relief System

Specifying Torque Values for Fasteners

Specifying Torque Values for Fasteners Specifying Torque Values for Fasteners is required for….. Reliability of the joint is dependent upon the bolt’s ability to clamp the parts together Preload generated by a bolt can be indirectly controlled by regulating the applied torque Typically, only 10% to 15% of the torque is used to stretch the bolt. Of the remaining torque, typicRead More…

Double Block and Bleed Valves

Double Block and Bleed Valves: Double Block-and-Bleed Valve – API
Definition According
to API 6D “Specification for Pipeline Valves” Double block and bleed valves is a “single valve with two seating surfaces that, in the closed position, provides a seal against pressure from both ends of the valve with a means of venting/bleeding the cavity between the seating surfaces. Read More…
