CALCULATOR MODULE : ASME B31.3 Process Piping Allowable Bolt Load And Bolt Stress   ±

Calculate ASME B31.3 process piping bolt design load and design stress from temperature (ASME B31.3 Table A-2). Stress values are interpolated from the US data tables (US units govern).

Bolt load is calculated from the design stress and the tensile area for either ANSI threads or ISO threads. For temperatures below the data range, the stress value is constant (fracture toughness should also be considered for low temperature operation). For temperatures above the data range the stress values can either be constant value from the end point, constant slope from the end point, or zero from the end point. Engineering judgement is required to use extrapolated values above the data range.

Use the Data Plot option to plot the design stress versus temperature for the selected material. Use the Data Table option to display the data table (Table A-2). Use the Result Table option to display a table of design stress and design load versus either material type or bolt diameter. Refer to the help pages for notes on the data tables. Use the workbook ASME B31.3 data tables to look up bolt allowable stress data.

CALCULATOR MODULE : ASME B31.8 Gas Pipeline Fluid Velocity And Flow Rate   ±

Calculate ASME ASME B31.8 gas pipeline fluid velocity and flow rate for two phase gas liquid piping, and three phase black oil piping (gas water and oil).

The two phase fluid calculator can be used for single phase gas, single phase liquid, or two phase gas and liquid. The three phase black oil calculator can be used for single phase oil, single phase water, two phase oil and water, and three phase oil, water and gas. Water cut is the volume fraction of water in the liquid phase (ignoring the gas phase). Gas oil ratio (GOR) is the ratio of gas moles to liquid volume (ignoring the water phase). Gas moles are commonly measured as gas volume at standard conditions, eg SCM (Standard Conditions Meter) or SCF (Standard Conditions Feet).

CALCULATOR MODULE : ASME B31.1 Power Piping Allowable Bolt Load And Bolt Stress   ±

Calculate ASME B31.1 power piping allowable bolt load and bolt stress from temperature (US units).

Allowable bolt stress is calculated from tables A-10. Bolt tensile area can be calculated for either ANSI threads, or ISO threads.

Use the data plot option to plot the allowable stress versus temperature for the selected material. Use the Data Table option to display the data table in the popup window (ASME B31.1 Table A-10). Use the Result Table option to display a table of allowable stress and allowable load versus material type. Use the workbook ASME B31.1 data tables to look up allowable bolt stress data.
