ASME Board on Pressure Technology
The Board on Pressure Technology is responsible for the management of all
ASME activities related to codes, standards, guidelines, and accreditation
programs directly applicable to nonnuclear pressure containing equipment.

CAESAR II -- Pipe Stress Analysis
COADE, Inc
<<CAESAR II is the Pipe Stress Analysis standard against which all others
are measured and compared. The CAESAR II spreadsheet input technique
revolutionized the way piping models are built, modified, and verified.
CAESAR II was the first pipe stress program specifically designed for the PC
environment. The interactive capabilities permit rapid evaluation of both
input and output, thereby melding seamlessly into the "design - analyze"
iteration cycle.>>

Pumping High Temperature Liquids
PumpSchool.com
<< High-temperature applications are becoming more prevalent in the fluid
handling industry. Consider an application to be high temperature when the
operating temperature is above 110ºC / 225ºF. Pumps intended for use at
ambient temperatures are not recommended for use at high temperatures
without some modifications. In fact, if an engineer does not take into
account some of the problems that can result from using a standard or
"stock" pump on a high temperature application, a variety of consequences
may result -- from leaky gaskets and stalled drives to broken pumps and
shattered casings .>>

Non-Conformance of Existing Pressure Relief Systems Berwanger, Inc.
<< This article presents a statistical analysis showing that the pressure
relief systems on nearly half of the equipment in the oil, gas, and chemical
industries lack adequate overpressure protection as defined by recognized
and generally accepted good engineering practice. This analysis was based on
data collected from a large number of government mandated (per OSHA
1910.119) pressure relief system design audits performed by an independent
contractor. The vast majority of these deviations from good practice were
not identified during conventional process hazard analyses (PHA) performed
on these same facilities. Most of the units had also been designed by
reputable design firms. >>
