Hello friends,

Is there any constraint for minimum pipe bend angle to be conisdered.
In caesar configuration file, in geometric directive tab, the allowble minimimum bend angle is specified. How does it effect in determination the stress ratio in bend. Suggest me the optimum minium bend angle to be consisdered for design point of view.

Caesar by default considers minimum bend angle as 5 Degree. If I get error message while performing run operation that the bend angle is less than 5 and should be betwwen 5 and 95 deg C. How should I proceeed? If i change minimum bend angle in configuration as 5, would it drastically affect the result.
My seniors adivsed to consider minimum bend angle as 5.
Kindly give me your suggestions.
