Summary

This 6-day courses is a combination of the popular five day Pipe Stress Engineering course, using CAESAR II, conducted by David Diehl PE from COADE Inc,  and a one day course on surge analysis, conducted by Dr David Haines, on the important predicting of pressures due to surges in piping networks.

Pipe Stress Analysis is an important requirement for the safe design & operation of process plant. Adherence to international codes (ASME, DIN etc) is necessary for safety compliance. The fluid network simulation of various operating scenarios, especially normal & emergency shutdowns and startups, can determine pressures due to surges, hence analyses can be made to determine the resultant pipe stress conditions.

Audience
Engineers & managers involved in the design and operation of plants in offshore oil & gas, refineries, chemical, petrochemical, power generation, gas transmission, refrigeration, water supply,
food processing and more.

The course introduces correct piping system modeling techniques, static and dynamic analyses, evaluation of piping designs and approaches to re-design. This is followed by coverage of modeling and simulation of fluid networks.

3 days are given to static pipe stress engineering, 2 days to dynamic analysis and the final day to fluid network analysis.

Each student will have a PC loaded with CAESAR II and Surge Analysis software. After the presentation of a topic, students will work through an example problem thus gaining insight to the subjects.

Comprehensive course notes are provided which will be a useful reference document assisting the future work of the delegates.

Certificates of Completion will be issued to all delegates.

Static (3 days): piping Code analysis requirements; considerations for piping models; stress guidelines for piping layout; evaluation of results and re-design; fatigue of piping; wind & seismic loading; FRP modeling & analysis; offshore risers.

Dynamics (2 days): proper dynamic modeling; interpreting dynamic analysis results; harmonic analysis; seismic analysis using spectrum response; relief valve discharge; time history analysis.

Network flow simulation (1 day): Flowmaster basics; fluid network modeling; steady state solution; transient analysis; surge scenarios; surge reduction.

All fees stated in Singapore Dollars.

Fees include tuition, course notes, use of computer & software during the course, two coffee/tea breaks and lunch for SIX days.
