With reference to Coade’s newsletter article on Hot Tapped piping, (article by Jhon C. Luf in October,1996 newsletter, found on this website), I have a doubt and need clarity:
Load Case3 (ope) : W+DIS+P1 ( Minimum Operating Conditions “system shutdown” )
The “DIS” was calculated based on T1 case, as the header pipe is operating when the tie in is made. Is the same “DIS” applicable for the shutdown case?
What am I missing here?
