Solutions for Terminals “New” and “Existing”

Piping Analysis in Elastic Regime

Page 2: Piping Analysis in Elastic Regime...L : primary general or local membrane stress, psi –P b: primary bending stress, psi Pipe – Structure Interaction •MOTEMS brings this to light

Pipe Stress Analysis Approach

• Existing Terminals:

– Benefit of actual operating data

• Design pressure of 275 psig, operates ~100 psig, find maximum incidental pressure

• Actual operating temperatures (including solar radiation) as opposed to maximum design temperature

• What is the current condition of the pipe?

Pipe Condition Considerations

• “Not on paper”

• Pipe wall thickness, corrosion rate and remaining service life

• Corrosion allowance

• Actual pipe grade?

– Pipe material certs or original specifications do not always exist

– Brinell hardness testing to verify pipe grade

“One Time Faulted Events” vs“Occasional Loads”

• ASME B31.3 and B31.4 limit occasional loads to a percentage of pipe yield strength

– Limited to CBC accelerations? Or actual structural interaction?

• Allowance by ALA and ASME B31E to inelastic behavior for one time faulted events

– What is a one time faulted event? 

– How is it different from an occasional load?

– Applies to cyclic events only…what is cyclic?

Stress vs Strain

Page 7: Piping Analysis in Elastic Regime...L : primary general or local membrane stress, psi –P b: primary bending stress, psi Pipe – Structure Interaction •MOTEMS brings this to light

American Lifelines Alliance (ASME B&PV Code)

• When the piping is elastically analyzed the ALA suggests the following ASME B&PV Code Section III, Div. 1 stress limits:– Pm < 70% SU 

– PL + Pb < 105% SU 

– SU  : minimum ultimate strength of the material, psi 

– Pm  : primary membrane stress, psi 

– PL  : primary general or local membrane stress, psi 

– Pb : primary bending stress, psi

Pipe – Structure Interaction

• MOTEMS brings this to light

• Seismic Displacements and Inertial Loads

– Static analysis for maximum differential displacements, and separate analysis for anticipated seismic accelerations

• Changing the structural analysis conditions

– With pipe connected to structure, it forms a part of the structural mass, increasing displacements

Response Spectrum Analysis

• New terminals require a time history or response spectrum analysis; can be used to define the actual pipe – structure interaction

– The structure has a natural period, and goes back at forth at a certain period

– The pipe has a natural period, and will “excite” or resonate when closer to the structure natural period

– Pipe restraints and mass participation effects

New Terminal Design

• Designing a new terminal allows you to change both the structural response, and the piping response

– Make structure more rigid or flexible

– Manipulate mass of piping or location of valves, add / delete restraints, “cut out” mode shapes

– Minimize accelerations and keep displacements manageable

Summary

• Existing terminals allow the benefit of analyzing towards actual operating conditions, and remaining service life.

• New terminals offer interaction of structural design and easier integration of piping modifications

• All evaluation techniques result in same thing: we’re smarter, with less at risk
