Surface Laid Pipelines, as the name suggests, are Pipelines that are laid on the surface of the loose desert sand without any restraints. These unrestrained pipelines, unlike the other unrestrained...
Category: Piping Stress Analysis
Equipment nozzles are the openings through which fluid enters or exit the equipment. To create the path for fluid a part of the equipment must be cut, which weakens the equipment. So nozzle...
Stress Intensity Factor (SIF), Flexibility Factor: ASME B31.3 vs ASME B31J
A piping system consists of many different components such as bends, elbows, reducers, tees, valves, and flanges. However, in the pipe stress analysis, these various components are idealized into two...
In the engineering world, piping engineers play a vital role in the design, construction, and maintenance of piping systems. Whether in oil and gas, chemical processing, water treatment, or power...
When it comes to piping design and construction in industrial settings, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) plays a crucial role in establishing safety and performance standards. Two...
Pipe Thickness Calculation of Straight Pipe under External Pressure/ Vacuum Pressure Condition
Piping systems under vacuum conditions, Jacketed Piping, Offshore pipelines, piping inside equipment, etc. are subjected to both internal as well as external pressure. Contrary to the internal...
