Dear Mr. Richard Ay

In Flange leakage method, Gasket Compression is calculated in mm as highlighted in attached document. Please guide me how to calculate the compression of gasket due to initial bolt up (Ci), loss of compression due to pressure (Cp), applied force (Cf) and moment (Cm). What is the formula for this calculation.

Waiting for your reply

There really isn't a forumula, it is a small FEA model that is built and solved. You can find the details in the October 1991 newsletter (available on this Site).
