Identify the inputs for buried piping stress analysis in Caesar II, including process parameters, pipe material, diameter and thickness, corrosion allowance, and soil parameters.
Perform buried pipe stress analysis with Caesar II by setting up the model, creating load cases, and running the analysis to check convergence, including issues at note 170.
Buried or Underground pipe and pipeline stress analysis course covers the step-by-step methodology for performing the analysis in Caesar II software. The candidate will learn the methods for modeling the pipe/pipeline with proper inputs, create load cases depending on the code requirements, analyze the system, and finally review the results to decide if the system is acceptable or any changes are to be made.
Moreover, the course also covers a brief about buried piping, what it means, different types of underground piping and pipeline systems, and their applications.
If you are a starter into the piping and pipeline stress analysis domain and are just learning the basics of pipe and pipeline stress analysis then this course is just perfect for you. You will learn which inputs are required for buried analysis in Caesar II. From where to get or collect those data for inputting into the Caesar ii input spreadsheet. Then you will learn how to convert an above-ground piping system into the underground model, create analysis load cases and finally perform the analysis to find out the results.
The main objective of the buried pipe stress analysis is to ensure that the calculated stresses based on the relevant code in Caesar II software are well within the allowable values.
