Course Description
This practical and highly-interactive course includes practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. In this course, we shall be analyzing the riveted and bolted joints used in the oil refineries for jointing of pipes & plates, for the blinding of pipes, pressure vessels and heat exchangers. The selection of pipe flanges is well documented in the ASME code and is fairly straight forward when pressures and temperatures are known. Use of the code makes the specific selection of components such as flanged valves, meters, pumps and compressors also fairly straight forward in most instances. As a piping designer or engineer it is, however, essential to have an understanding of the flange joint make-up as a unit. To this end, it is essential to understand the meaning of bolt preload and its importance in the flange joint, when considering external loadings due to (1) internal pressure, (2) cyclic conditions- leading to possible fatigue, (3) the effect of temperature, (4) shear and bending loads, and (5) vibration.The aspect of fatigue loadings will be covered, however in practice the cyclic conditions encountered can be extremely difficult to estimate. An example of a pipeline in Alaska will be discussed in this regard. Sometimes, at best, a designer/ engineer can only make assumptions (and judgments based on experience), regarding expected vibration. Accurate bending and shear loads on flange joints can sometimes only be established from a pipe stress analysis programme.Circular flat plates will be analyzed and compared to blind flanges, and pressure vessel heat exchanger applications. link to course overview PDF
