CALCULATOR MODULE : ASME B31.3 Process Piping Thermal Expansion   ±

Calculate ASME B31.3 thermal expansion from temperature (ASME B31.3 Table C-2).

Table C-2 provides thermal expansion strain data (mm/m) from 20 degrees C base temperature. The expansion data is used to calculate

  • thermal expansion strain from 20 degrees C to the design temperature
  • thermal expansion strain from the design base temperature to the design temperature
  • thermal expansion length from the design base temperature to the design temperature
  • thermal expansion coefficient at the design temperature
  • The average thermal expansion coefficient from the design base temperature to the design temperature

Use the Data Plot option to plot thermal expansion versus temperature for the selected material. Use the Data Table option to display the data table in the popup window. Use the Result Table option to display a table of expansion coefficient, expansion strain and expansion length versus material type. Strain (ε) has units meter per meter [m/m]. The expansion strain data uses units of milli meter per meter [mm/m] or [mε] milli strain. Change units on the setup page. Refer to the help pages for notes on the data tables. Use the workbook ASME B31.3 data tables to look up thermal expansion data.

CALCULATOR MODULE : ASME B31.5 Refrigeration Piping Thermal Expansion   ±

Calculate ASME B31.5 refrigeration piping thermal expansion from table 519.3.1 (SI units).

For temperatures outside the data range, thermal expansion is extrapolated with constant slope from the end points.

thermal expansion from 21 degrees C base temperature to the design temperature is interpolated from the table. The calculations include : thermal expansion from the design base temperature to the design temperature, the expansion coefficient at the design temperature, and the mean expansion coefficient and elongation from the design base temperature to the design temperature.

Use the data plot option to plot thermal expansion versus temperature for the selected material. Use the Data Table option to display the data table in the popup window. Change units on the setup page. Use the workbook ASME B31.5 data tables to look up thermal expansion data.

CALCULATOR MODULE : Pipeline Expansion Spool   ±
CALCULATOR MODULE : DNVGL ST F101 Submarine Pipeline Expansion Spool   ±

Calculate DNVGL-ST-F101 submarine expansion spool local buckling and fatigue check.

The expansion spool is modelled as a simple beam with fixed ends, with a uniform distributed load due to friction and a lateral displacement at one end due to expansion. Pipe cross section properties are calculated for a single pipe layer with no coatings. For pipes with internal liner or external coatings use the user defined cross section properties option.
