Does not Thomas help you with your doubts?

Is this mail addressed to Caesar or piping design?

Dear Mr. Loren Brown,

Please advice me on the following topic.

Design Code: ASME B 31.8

T1=70C

T2=120C

T3=130C

P1=1200KPa

Load Cases definition:

L1= (HYD) WW+HP L2=(OPE) W+T1+P1 L3= (OPE) W+T2+P1 L4= (OPE) W+T3+P1 L5= (SUS) W+P1 L6= (EXP) L2-L5 L7= (EXP) L3-L5 L8= (EXP) L4-L5 If I want to clear my system from stress code allowable then I should

check code allowable in load cases L6, L7, L8, and L5& L1.

The caser tips mention the following statement:

B31.1, B31.3 and similar codes do not consider OPErating case as a

stress case, and there are no allowable provided or code checks

performed

The general industry practice is to use operating case for the support

design.

If I am using design code ASME B31.3 then the Load cases L2, L3 & L4

shows value as zero and text as no code check processed.

On contrary if I am using ASME B31.8 then values are shown Load cases

L2, L3 & L4 and code check is done. Can you explain why?

Please clarify the following queries:

  1. For design code ASME B31.8, for checking the code allowable I will

use all the eight cases mentioned above or not. In my case if I want

to print the code evaluation then it shows code evaluation Failed.

2. For B 31.3 code the code check is not processed for the operating

case as per the CAESER tips mentioned above. But this is not true

for B31.8? Please explain

3. Shall I use only L1,L5,L6,L7 & L8 to check code allowable and ignore

the operating Load cases L2,L3,L4.My system as per B31.8 passes all the

cases except L3 & L4.Shall I ignore it? Please clarify in detail.

Different engineers in the industry had different views. My senior

engineer says you had to check for L2 & L3.While the other engineer

working in a reputable companies working on CAESER II says no need to

check for L2, L3 & L5.There is confusion on this topic. Please explain

how CAESER software is working.

Thanks & Regards,

I would definitely use the maximum operating temperature as this is what

your piping system will see in the worst case.

Subject: Stress Analysi on Design temp or Operating temperature

Dear Friends,

Please advice me for doing stress analysis we should use design

temperature or Maximum operating Temperature?

If we refer CAESER II, Then the help says that among the 9 Temperature

fields the maximum operating temperature to be used.( Maximum operating

temp appears to be the maximum)

Please advice.
