What does the cross-sectional area of the split diaphragm refer to in SW6 calculations?
Thread Content
I’m trying to determine whether the cross-sectional area is of type A or type B; I would appreciate some guidance from experts.
This is used to calculate the reaction force of the gasket at the split diaphragm, A

The multi-pipeline ones should be added together; the direction of A is correct
This is used to calculate the reaction force of the gasket at the stage partition, that is, the actual contact area between the gasket and the partition; for multiple stages, the total value must be taken into account.
Can the split diaphragm being below the flange gasket be ignored?
The actual contact area between the gasket in direction A and the partition is, in most cases, the sum of these values
