    This document provides a case study example for selecting the proper pipe schedule according to ASME B31.3 design conditions. The example gives the design pressure, temperature, material, and corrosion allowance for an 8" nominal diameter pipe. It then shows the calculation of required pipe thickness according to the ASME B31.3 formula. The calculated thickness is greater than the standard 8" Schedule 40 wall thickness, so an 8" Schedule 40 pipe is selected.

    CASE STUDY FOR ASME B31.3 COURSE


    TEASER 1: Design of Pipes for Internal Pressure
    (Question)

    Choose correct pipe schedule for a piping with the following design
    conditions:

    Design Pressure = 400 psig

    Design Temperature = 750 degrees F

    M. O. C. = 8 ND pipes, A 106 gr. B seamless

    Corrosion Allowance = 3.0 mm

    Assume standard mill tolerance.

    (Solution)

    Design Pipe Thickness, t = PD/2 (SE + PY) + C

    Here, P = 400 psig -------------------------- given


    D= 8.625 (219.08 mm)------------- from pipe dimension tables
    S= 13,000 psi------------------------- Table A-1 (Stress Table)
    E= 1.0 -------------------------------- Table A-1B (Quality Factor Table)
    Y= 0.4 -------------------------------- Table 304.1.1 (Y Table)

    Now, t= 400 x 219.08 / 2 (13,000 x 1 + 400 x 0.4) + 3


    = 3.329 + 3
    = 6.329 mm

    Allowing standard negative mill tolerance of 12.5%

    Nominal thickness (i.e. ordered thickness) = 6.329 / 0.875 = 7.23

    Referring pipe tables again, choose 8 Sch. 40 pipe
