6.0 Analysis:
Assumption
Based on B&V experience, a margin of 6C will be added to the maximum expected temperature and rounded up to
the nearest 5C increment to determine the design temperature . And a margin of 170kPag will be added to the
operating pressure and rounded up to the nearest 50 kPag increment to determine the design pressure.
1. Operating Temperature and Pressure
The operating temperature and operating pressure will be defined as the maximum sustained
normal coincident temperature and pressure that act on a system during expected operating
scenarios.

The closed cycle cooling water inlet pressure is 38C

Confirmed with the air compressor supplier, compressed air maximum discharge temperature is considered as closed
cycle cooling water inlet pressure plus 8C

Therefore, the compressed air operating temperature is

Toper := 38C + 8C = 46 C
Per Ref 1, the air compressor rated pressure is
Poper := 8.5bar gauge pressure
it is considered as the compressed air operating pressure

2. Design Temperature and Pressure

Based on B&V experience, a margin of 6C will be added to the maximum expected temperature and rounded up to
the nearest 5C increment to determine the design temperature . And a margin of 170kPag will be added to the
operating pressure and rounded up to the nearest 50 kPag increment to determine the design pressure.

Therefore, the design temperature of compressed air is

 Toper + 6C  ⋅ 5C
Tdesign := ceil  
 5C 
Tdesign = 55 C

The design pressure of compressed air is

 Poper + 170kPa  ⋅ 50kPa

Pdesign := ceil  
 50kPa 

Pdesign = 10.5 ⋅ bar gauge pressure

Per Assumption 1, the set pressure of the air compressor safety valve is

Pset := 9bar gauge pressure

Therefore, choose the bigger one as the design pressure

Pdes := 10.5bar gauge pressure
3. Test Pressure
Per Ref 3, the test pressure is 1.2 times the design for pneumatic test.

Ptest := 1.2 ⋅ Pdesign

Ptest = 12.6 ⋅ bar gauge pressure

4. Piping
Per Design Basis, ASME A312 TP304 stainless steel pipe will be used for instrument air system and A106B carbon
steel pipe will be used for service air system.

4.1 Minimum wall thickness

Per Equation 7 of Ref 3, the minimum required wall thickness is

Pdesign ⋅ Do
tm := +A
2( SE + Pdeign ⋅ y)

Where, Do Outsidse diamater of pipe, mm

SE Maximum allowable stress in material due to internal pressure and joint

efficiency at the design temperature

For material A106B,

SEcs := 20ksi At design temperature, per Ref 3, Appendix A, Table A-1

8
SEcs = 1.379 × 10 Pa

For material A312 TP304,

SEss := 16.7ksi At design temperature, Per Ref 3, Appendix A, Table A-3

8
SEss = 1.151 × 10 Pa

y := 0.4 Coefficient, value as given in Per Ref 3, Table 104.1.2(A)

A := 1.5mm Corrosion and/or erosion allowance, mm, it is 1.5mm per design basis

The minimum pipe wall thickness of carbon steel pipe diameter less than or equal to 50mm will choose Sch XS,
the minimum pipe wall thickness of carbon steel pipe diameter greater than 50mm will choose Std wt, the
minimum pipe wall thickness of stainless steel pipe A312 pipe will choose Sch 10.

Per Ref 4 and Ref 5, the pipe nominal diameters, pipe outside diameters, wall thickness of A106 B XS or STD pipe,
