Explore Caesar software basics in this introductory session, emphasizing its importance, ease of use, and careful attention to every input parameter for piping modeling and stress analysis.
Begin a new Caesar II project, set units to millimeters, and input initial pipe data: length 1000 mm, diameter 12, schedule 40, corrosion allowance 1.5, material A53 grade B.
Add pipe geometry by creating another pipe along Y direction, set its length to 5000 mm, then add 2500 mm in Z direction, and 5000 mm for the final segment.
Add anchor restraints at the end and beginning of pipes in Caesar II piping modeling, selecting the end node and double-clicking restraints to choose anchor for each pipe.
Add bends by choosing radii and flange types, from short to long and single to double, and set user-defined radii to study flexibility and stress intensification in Caesar II.
Change a pipe dimension and insert a node between nodes 30 and 40, placing it in the middle or at a specific distance, with SESAR displaying node numbers.
Insert multiple nodes to split a section into multiple elements; specify the number of breaks and let Caesar II automatically compute each element's length for the section.
Learn how to modify units in Caesar II by accessing environment configuration, changing the base unit (millimeter to English) and saving the temperature setting in Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Change parameters such as north direction and the z-up orientation, adjust the vertical axis, and modify the ambient temperature to simulate cold or hot environments in Caesar II piping modeling.
Enter the global coordinates to relocate the coordinate system, set x, y, and z values, and view the model with the new coordinate system.
Double-click the element to access options, select from 17 tee types, start from node 26, and set the distance to 1000 millimeter to design the tee.
Add a reducer in Caesar II piping model; set a 12-inch diameter converted to 6 inches with schedule 40, and apply to the segment from node 60 to 70.
Select a flange from the belfrage database, place it at node 31 between node 6 and 31, and review the flange weight in the model.
Add a valve at node eight by selecting the element, returning to base, and choosing a butterfly valve, then add multiple elements as needed.
Learn to add vertical supports in Caesar II piping models by placing supports at a node, enabling the Y-direction support, and adjusting friction (0.3) and stiffness for flexible beam-like elements.
Add a guide to the pipe model using a 1000 mm extension, a support with coefficient 0.3, and a 5 mm gap to restrain lateral movement.
Learn how to model line stops and attach hangers in Caesar II, including setting gaps, friction coefficients, and selecting spring hangers from manufacturer tables for accurate piping stress analysis.
In node 50, remove the stress-causing anchor and replace it with a nozzle, set dimensions and spacing, and run the piping model’s flexibility calculation.
Model a piping system with an isometric drawing and conduct stress analysis per ASME B31.3, using a pipe map, diameter, material, fluid density, temperature, pressure, anchors, and directional elements.
Caesar II calculates system stresses and checks loads against allowable stress, then presents results and reports. The animation highlights displacements and stress, with anchors preventing displacement and signaling fixes.
Modify inputs and parameters in Caesar II to minimize displacement and the load on banking system, then run the analysis to keep stress below allowable and global risk under 100%.
