Pressure Vessel Design as per ASME Sec VIII Div-1

Below is a summary which explains how detailed this course is:

• Manual calculations and validation with PvElite for combined loading calculations, where software just shares the ratios of actual to allowable stress, we have demonstrated in detail with manual problems all calculations for various stresses.
• For saddle design the values of load Q used in the zick analysis method are derived and demonstrated with manual calculations. Validation with PvElite software for the same. Software shows these values directly without any explanations and derivations.
• Manual detailed calculations for wind and seismic loads and moments and stresses because of it. For nozzles we are covering all the details from Nozzle Neck thickness as per UG-45, Opening requirements for UG-36, reinforcement as per UG-37, Multiple openings as per UG-42, large opening as per 1-7, nozzle on flat head UG-39, large central opening on flat head as per Mandatory appendix-14.
• Flange design and optimization with manual calculations and PvElite validations as per Mandatory appendix-2 covering Loose ring, integral and optional type flange designs.
• PWHT, Impact testing, PFHT, Hydro and Pneumatic test all requirements and manual problems.
• Leg support manual calculations for the stresses.
• Stiffener moment of inertia manual calculations and validation with PvElite.
