Dear Engineers,
For lug types with a bottom plate and no continuous rings (Simple geometry with no gussets and gusseted geometry with top plate in Lug Type), enter the distance between gussets plus two times the gusset plate thickness.
For lug types with continuous top and bottom rings...
hello guys, as per UHX14.2, the two tubesheets ( fixed and floating) shall have the same thickness and material.
however in my case the design temperatures at stationery side is different (i.e. 500 deg. C) from what i am having at floating end (288 deg. C) and the tube length is 18000 mm from...
Dear All,
I am right now looking for some pumps attached in parallel to a header I want to calculate the surge in startup of pump to cater the hammering in the header
Dear All,
I am right now working on design and detail engineering of a header having tube ligaments on its already UG-53 has been used what if one of my ligament hole comes on a circumferential/longitudinal seam (All of the seams are 100 %
radiographed) What will be the code requirement that...
hello guys,
I want to know is there any method to perform the calculations as per TEMA and UHX for tubesheet in PV-Elite as this we can do in COMPRESS.

Dear Members,
Good day, I want to ask that where it has been mentioned in ASME BPVC codes to follow AWS A 2.4 for the welding symbols on drawing for any stamped vessel

Dear All,
I want to ask as While calculating WRC-297 calculations on PV Elite, Pv- Elite considers 2 Stress concentration factors mainly
1) Shell Stress Concentration factors (default value 1.2) and
2) Nozzle Stress Concentration factor ( default value 2.25) my question is that what values...
Guys,
How are you all, I was yesterday designing a vessel having a transition cone, and while I was checking the calculation I came to know that compress takes the value of t in the fiber elongation calculations for cones and transition other than nominal thickness considered i am attaching the...
This is wrt ASME S8D1 edition 2013 para UHX-14.5.9(b) which deals with checking the tubes for buckling stress in case of a floating head heat exchanger.
Can anybody explain the reasoning/logic behind this para which is relevant for floating head shell and tube heat exchangers?
As this para is...
Dear All
I am working on a design project that comprises of a quick opening closure having slotted bolt holes and instead of having stud bolts it has Eye bolts eye side of the bolt is attached to the shell so that we can instantly open all bolts i am having trouble in designing such type of the...
Dear All
I am designing an S&T heat Exchanger of type BEM and i am having the Following Error on compress "TEMA A.23: Tube longitudinal compressive stress is excessive (Operating)."

Dear Tom Barsh
As Mentioned in the Help topic In Compress
"As well there is an option to reset all the allowable stress values based on the vessel material yield stress of the component to which the lift lug is attached. This is useful if the lug material is the same as the vessel component...
Hello Everybody
Can anyone share me the Sample Design Calculation For Designing Storage tanks according to API 620 Code
I shall be very thankful to you

I want to ask the Question that when ever we design vertical vessel on compress having support lugs this error occurs "Weight value, W, used in equation tw = W/(2*pi*Rm*St*Ks*Ec) for cylinder and transition components does not include weight of liquid above top of vessel.
kindly ellaborate the...
