CAESAR II vs START-PROF Piping Stress Analysis Software Comparison
In this article, we will compare START-PROF and Caesar II functions. In START-PROF all pipes, fittings, and nodes are objects. Each object has it's properties. For example, you can place bend objects...
Underground Piping Stress Analysis Procedure using Caesar II
Several failures in buried piping and pipeline systems over the years forced EPC companies to investigate stresses the system is experiencing. So, in recent times, stress analysis of underground...
What if Piping Continuation is Unknown? Part 2. Underground Piping
Continued from Part 1 What if Underground Piping Continuation is Unknown? It is necessary to specify the correct boundary conditions while modeling main pipeline stations: valve station, pig...
Many times, as stress guy, we come across complicated and long piping layout to be modeled in CAESAR II. These may include parallel pump suction/discharge piping, inlet/outlet piping to/from multiple...
The purpose of this article is to explain the slug flow in piping and the static analysis of the piping system having slug flow using Caesar II. One of the major causes of vibration in operating...
Start-Prof can estimate the support loads and stresses caused by relief valve discharge by static method.The relief valve discharge thrust load acts on elbow 28. In Start-Prof it should be applied...
