Why Software may show Zero Anchor Loads? While stress analysis and supporting considerations it is always a better engineering practice to provide line stops or axial stops or anchors at the...
This article provides guidelines for modeling Tee or branch connections using Software START-PROF. The guideline covers modeling for both the Standard Tee and Non-Standard Tee Connection. Modeling...
The thermal bowing phenomenon occurs when a horizontal pipe is filled partially by hot or cold fluid (LNG). Many thermal bowing occurrences cause unexpected damage to the piping or supporting...
The idea of modular design is as follows: The complex piping system is divided into several modules that are mounted on a frame structure. Modules can be transported to the site and joined to each...
Nozzle-FEM is designed for stresses and flexibility calculation of nozzle-to-shell junctions using the Finite Element Method (FEM). The program also calculates nozzle’s allowable loads and...
