How is the moment for pipeline stress analysis calculated?
Thread Content
I have a question for everyone: how is torque calculated in pipeline stress analysis? For example: is there a calculation for the resultant moment acting on the pipe’s cross-section due to its own weight and other continuous external loads, or for the moment exerted by the pipe on the equipment connections? Have you calculated it by hand or are there any example problems? I didn’t do well in mechanics when I was in school; thank you all!
High-temperature pipes? We generally use C2 software to calculate stress
