Detailed stresses over the circumference and checks according to the Belgian Law for gas pipelines (Output Table)
Data description/Result options:
ANGLE:
Location at circumference where calculation have been performed
(Measured in positive sense around x-axis from y-axis.)
SHOOP:
Circumferential normal stress due to internal overpressure
(The hoop stress is calculated taking into account the outer pipe diameter D and the minimum wall-thickness T-min.)
SXHT:
Maximum of longitudinal normal stresses at inner and outer wall face
(Maximum of summated stress components SXI+SXU and SXO+SXU.)
SFHT:
Maximum of circumferential normal stresses at inner and outer wall face
(Maximum of summated stress components SFI+SFU and SFO+SFU.)
MISES:
Maximum of equivalent stresses at inner and outer wall face according to Von Mises' criterion
SH/SH-A:
Circumferential normal stress due to internal overpressure divided by the allowable hoop stress
SX/SX-A:
Maximum of longitudinal normal stresses at inner and outer wall face divided by the allowable longitudinal stress
SF/SF-A:
Maximum of circumferential normal stresses at inner and outer wall face divided by the allowable circumferential stress
SM/SM-A:
Maximum of equivalent stresses at inner and outer wall face according to Von Mises' criterion divided by the allowable equivalent stress
The number of rows is 48 (each 7.5 degrees).
