• This presentation is not on behalf of ASME

• This is being presented as a user and designer of
Section VIII, Div 1 pressure vessels

2
Advantages of CC-2695

• Recent design methodology for:

– Opening Reinforcement
– Formed Head Design
– External Pressure

3
Advantages of CC-2695

• Different from Div 1 design:

– Design formulas

4
Advantages of CC-2695

• Same as Div 1 design:

– Allowable Stress
– Joint Efficiency
– Impact Test Exemption Rules
– Weld Joint Details
– All Requirements for Construction

5
Advantages of CC-2695

• Primary Membrane Tensile Stresses Higher ?

– No

6
Advantages of CC-2695

• Example:
– Cylinder
– 48” ID SA-516-70 P=300 psi
– Full RT, Type 1 joints DT= 500°F

– Div 1, t = 0.363”
– Div 2, t = 0.363”

7
Advantages of CC-2695

• Example:
– Sphere
– 120” ID SA-516-70 P=300 psi
– Full RT, Type 1 joints DT= 500°F

– Div 1, t = 0.451”
– Div 2, t = 0.452”

8
Advantages of CC-2695

• Opening Reinforcement:
– Div 1 Area Replacement
• Reinforcement Limits Based on Geometry
• Uniform Stress Within Area
• Area Removed = Area Replaced

9
Advantages of CC-2695

• Opening Reinforcement:
– Div 2 Pressure Area
• Reinforcement Limits Based Beam on Elastic
Foundation
• Discontinuity Stress Reduces With Distance
• Pressure Stress and Discontinuity Stress
• Closely represents actual stress

10
Advantages of CC-2695

• Formed Head Analysis:

– Div 2 Better Representation of Stresses

11
Advantages of CC-2695

• Example:
– 2:1 Ellipsoidal Head
– Div 1, t = 0.361”
– Div 2, t = 0.325”

12
Advantages of CC-2695

• Example:
– 6% Torispherical Head (300 psi)
– Div 1, t = 0.648”
– Div 2, t = 0.664”

13
Advantages of CC-2695

• Example:
– 6% Torispherical Head (50 psi)
– Div 1, t = 0.145”
– Div 2, t = 0.130”

14
Advantages of CC-2695

• External Pressure:
– CC-2286 Used Div 1
– CC-2286 Incorporated in Div 2
– Design Same Div 1 w/CC-2286 or Div 2

15
Advantages of CC-2695

• Example:
– Cylindrical Shell
– Div 1, t = 0.246”
– Div 2 / CC-2286, t = 0.226”

16
Advantages of CC-2695

• Example:
– 2:1 Ellipsoidal Head
– Div 1, t = 0.130”
– Div 2 / CC-2286, t = 0.117”

17
Advantages of CC-2695

• Restrictions:
– Shell Designed to Div 2
• Opening Reinforcement per Div 2
• Cone-to-Cylinder Junction per Div 2
• Weld Joint Details per Div 2
– Div 2, Part 5 not Allowed
– Closer Fabrication Tolerances per Div 2

18
Advantages of CC-2695

• CC-2695 Recommended for:

– Opening Reinforcement
– Formed Head Design
– External Pressure
