Study Notes
ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code
- Section II lists the materials approved for constructing boilers or pressure vessels.
- Material specification documents outline the requirements for material selection, including mechanical properties, chemical composition, and testing requirements.
Boiler Design Mechanisms
- Primary mechanisms in boiler design include the management of stress, strain, and corrosion.
ASME BPVC Section 1
- Tables in Section II of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code determine the maximum allowable stress values for different materials at various temperatures.
- Formulas in ASME BPVC Section 1, PG-27.2.1 can be used to calculate the maximum allowable working pressure, which depends on the vessel's dimensions, material, and desired safety factor.
Material Selection and Fabrication
- Metal selection for boiler design must account for factors such as corrosion resistance, high-temperature strength, and ductility.
- The design formulas in this chapter contain factors and coefficients that account for variables such as temperature, pressure, and material properties.
- An example of efficiency in the context of materials fabrication is the minimization of material waste and optimization of fabrication processes.
Seamless Cylinders and Welds
- The efficiency of seamless cylinders is typically higher than that of welded cylinders due to the lack of weld joints.
- For longitudinal seam welds in vessels operating at high temperatures, the factor of thermal expansion must be considered to prevent cracking and failure.
ASTM/ASME Specifications
- The ASTM/ASME specification number refers to the unique identifier for a specific material grade, which outlines its mechanical and chemical properties.
- The letters H, M, and L are used with carbon steel to indicate increasing tensile or yield strength, or an increase in carbon content.
- The letter P in ASTM grade designators for pipe, tube, and forging products indicates the type of product.
- The letter F in the context of pipe manufacturing indicates that the pipe is fabricated using a furnace process.
- TH in ASTM grade designators for pipe, tube, and forging products indicates that the product is thermally treated.
