The document summarizes stress calculations for swing bolts connecting shell flanges. It provides material specifications and design conditions. Key calculations check stresses in the tab, welds, and pin against allowable values. All stresses are found to be acceptable, including shear stresses in the tab and pin, bending and bearing stresses in the tab, and shear and bending stresses in the welds. Failure modes for the pinned connection are also evaluated and found acceptable.

Material Shell: ASTM A 240 316L (L.S.) Flange: ASTM A 240 316L (L.S.) Tab: ASTM A 240 316L (L.S.) Pin: ASTM A 479 TP304 (L.S.) Bolts: ASTM A 193 B8 Gasket: O-Ring
DESIGN CONDITIONS
Ft - Total force 261039 N Nb - Bolts number 12
F - Force per bolt 21753 N dh - Hole height 22.5 mm dt - Tab overall height 45 mm S- Allow. tensile stress in tab 84 N/mm2 dl - Tab overall length 45 mm dw - Fillet weld height 45 mm thk - Thickness of each tab 12 mm leg - Fillet weld length 12 mm x- Distance to bolt centre 22.5 mm dp - Pin diameter 17 mm dia - Hole diameter 18 mm Sp - Allow. tensile stress in pin 99 N/mm2
Simplifying Assumptions: - No torsion in welds - Bolt material is covered by Appendix-2 calculations - No out-of-plane effects such as buckling or dishing are accounted for here
