Importance of Bourdon Effect, True and Effective Axial Force (With PDF)
Bourdon Effect in Pipelines Bourdon Effect is associated with the pressure elongation of the piping and pipeline systems. In piping and pipeline systems, elbows or bends are frequently used for...
Creep Rupture Usage Factor for Allowable Variations in Elevated Temperature Service
Appendix V of ASME B31.3-2018 code covers the application of the Linear Life Fraction Rule, which provides a method for evaluating variations at elevated temperatures above design conditions where...
Hopefully, by now all the Caesar II users are aware that the latest version of the piping stress analysis software Caesar II version 12.0 has already been released by Hexagon. Like every year they...
Surface Laid Pipelines, as the name suggests, are the Pipelines which are laid on the surface of the loose desert sand without any restraints. These unrestrained pipelines, unlike the other...
Stress Intensity Factor (SIF), Flexibility Factor: ASME B31.3 vs ASME B31J (With PDF)
A piping system consists of many different components such as bends, elbows, reducers, tees, valves, and flanges. However, in the stress analysis these various components idealize into two types of...
Variable Spring Support Design without the aid of Caesar II Hanger Auxiliary
Variable Spring Hanger Supports are widely used in critical pipe systems for its load-bearing capability allowing thermal movements. In Caesar II, We can easily design a variable spring hanger...
