Pressure equivalent method in new ASME VIII-1 UG-44! - 01/13/21 05:42 AM

I would like to point out that finally in the new 2019 version of ASME VIII division 1, paragraph UG-44 has been revised, introducing the method of checking flanged connections at the equivalent pressure corrected with the "moment factor" in accordance with code case 2901.

Perhaps it could be included officially in the CaesarII software with existent Peq and NC-3658.3? Or including new tables in "read from file" flange pressure rating corrected by "moment factor"?

May I ask, why my CAESAR II model did not have any FLange Leakage analysis output being analysea ,Allowable stress checking although the Flange Leakage have been selected to be analysis. All become zero...

Hope anyone here can help
