Expansion Joints are one of the critical devices that piping stress engineers use in piping systems having less flexibility. But it becomes quite a headache to choose the right kind of expansion bellow and then model it exactly considering all real configurations. Whether to choose a tied one? or whether to consider the thrust force? Such questions always arise in our mind and most of the time remain unanswered simply because there are very little literature and description available for modeling and analysis of systems considering expansion joints.
So now we all have a chance to learn from the experts and clarify our doubts. Thanks to the Caesar II owner company, Hexagon PPM who has arranged a webinar on 25th February 2020 at 10:00 AM CST as per the below-mentioned details.

Dear Anup,
I have one problem about the Effective Diameter :
– It should be the ED of the Bellow?
– It should be the difference between the pipe diameter and the Bellow diameter?
Thank you in advance

Hi Munif ,
The effective diameter is mean diameter of bellows convolutions profile.
