A Wye piece is considered a special type of fitting which is not addressed by the Code, but, nevertheless, is quite a delicate piece of equipment (just like a tee, but maybe more complex). I believe the Code does not address this because of its unique nature and complex non-standard design, and...
In the B31.1 Code, Para. 104.8.4(c) states the following:
"(c) For reduced outlets, calculate the resultant moment of each leg separately in accordance with (A) above. Moments are taken at the junction point of the legs, unless the designer can demonstrate the validity of a less conservative...
Can somebody share with me a useful Valves Guide (like a .pdf file or some kind of document) that speaks about the type of valves, their most common applications (which valves are used for throttling service, isolation, etc.) maybe also a little bit about their design, because I would like to...
Of course it is well known that for high temperature service piping (specifically Power Piping), the piping is insulated with a considerable amount of insulation.
If there is a case were we have Main Steam/CRH piping with 165mm-191mm of insulation and, due to a layout problem (interference with...
In certain Steam Turbine designs, some manufactures use the so-called "Ventilator Line" on the Cold Reheat (HP Exhaust) Line to vent the exhaust steam during low load, start-up, and turbine-trip operational modes. Due to a decelerated flow the HP exhaust steam is at a relatively high temperature...
