Seismic Analysis of piping systems is performed to safeguard the piping systems from unforeseen earthquake events. During the initial design phase, based on earlier earthquake data available in codes...
A Flare system is a means of safe disposal of waste gases by burning them under controlled conditions. Flare piping generally comprises of PSVs outlet piping, subheader piping & main header...
Piping Stress Analysis is the most important activity in Piping Design. Once, pipes are routed following design guidelines, they need to be verified by piping stress analysis to ensure they will work...
Modeling Fired Heater Piping Connection is a bit tricky as the pipe is not welded to a fired heater shell similar to ordinary equipment. The heater has a hole, the pipe runs through that hole inside...
Start-Prof can estimate the support loads and stresses caused by slug flow loads using the static method. Additional dynamic loads caused by the slugs hitting the bends and tees must be...
