6.3.2.1 Values for reaction
Temperature data to be considered for calculation of reaction forces shall be the
difference between the maximum operating temperature and the value at the
temperature expected during installation for nozzles (All operating condition shall be
considered like steam out, stand by and etc). For checking the nozzle load of rotary
equipment, air cooler and fired heater, normal operating temperature shall be used .For
designing restraints, difference between the design temperature and the value at the
temperature expected during installation shall be used.
The value of expected temperature during installation is 21C.
In cases that operating temperature is less than sun metal temperature (80 C) for non
insulated piping, the temperature difference between sun metal and installation (21C)
temperature shall be considered as metal temperature for calculation.
The maximum operating temperature is indicated in piping documents (P&ID, line list).

It shall be noted that nozzle flexibility, tank settlement and uplift of self anchorage tank
shall be taken into calculation.
The combined effects of settlement and nozzle rotation may suggest supporting the
piping on springs. However, before pursuing this course a check should be made on the
possibility of the line becoming drained during a normal operation cycle. If this should
occur the supporting springs may impose an excessive upward force on the tank nozzle.
Where the line can only be drained when the tank is out of service, instructions should
be issued for the springs to be locked before draining.

If the sum of the equivalent pressure calculated in this way and the operating pressure
of the piping does not exceed the maximum pressure allowed by the rating of the flange
joints as per ASME B 16.5 or ASME B 16.47, the applied external loads are acceptable.
6.7.1.2 Flange verification according to ASME VIII Division 1

Pipe for header and branch element):
h = T / r2
iO = 0.9 / [h2/3 (sin )3/2]
iI = (3 iO / 4) + 0.25
Where:
h is for Flexibility Characteristic
iO is for Stress Intensification Factor Out-of-Plane

Where,
W = Weight
T1 = Operating temperature
T2 = Design temperature
T3 = Max/Min temperature
P1 = Design Internal Pressure
HP = Hydrostatic test pressure
H = Hanger spring loads
D = Displacement of restraint (anchor or others, if applied)
U1 = X direction seismic loads
U2 = Z direction seismic loads
Win1 = +X direction Wind loads
Win2 = -X direction Wind loads
Win3 = +Z direction Wind loads
Win4 = -Z direction Wind loads
WW = Water filled weight
WNC = Weight no contents
Note:
1. Hydro test case should be also considered for the lines as vapor, gas or steam lines
as per test methods.
2. Add max or min operating temperature case into OPE when using the spring or
expansion joint devices
3. Flange leakage will be checked with OPE case in the Load Combination Table as per
this specification.
