Dear All,
I'd like to know how caesar calculates Von Mises combined stress as per Asme B31.8;
As per Code above, at para. 833.4, combined stress is:
[Sl^2-SlSh+Sh^2]
then, If I have 10" pipeline (restrained),wall thickness=6.35mm, pressure=30bar, temperature =75 C, installation temperature=21 C, we will have:
Sh= PD/2t= 3*273.1/2*6.35= 66.68 N/mm2
Sl= Sb+Se-v*Sh (assumed Sb=0)
Se= E+alpha*DT= 207000*11.7*10^-6*(75-21)= 130.78 N/mm2 (restrained pipe)
Sl= 0+ 130.78- (0.3*66.68)=110.76 N/mm2
Finally, my combined stress will be:
Sc= [110.76^2-110.76*66.68+66,68^2]= 96.58 N/mm2
but Caesar does not show me this value for combined stress, if i check output stress result for OPE case which it considers (pressure+temperature, assuming weight=0)the Max stress intensity is different from my value above?
Can Someone help me? Am i wrong on my calculation?
