    Pipeline Stress Analysis With Caesar II

    Uploaded by

    Sathish Kumar
    This document summarizes key aspects of pipeline stress analysis using CAESAR II software. It discusses the differences between piping and pipeline stress modeling, with pipelines usually being buried and requiring anchor blocks where underground piping transitions to aboveground. Buried pipe modeling in CAESAR II involves defining soil properties, buried pipe elements, and converting the model. Load cases like sustained, thermal, and combined loads must be analyzed. The software output provides stress results at nodes and elements to check against allowable stresses.

    PIPELINE STRESS ANALYSIS WITH

    CAESAR II

    PIPELINE STRESS ANALYSIS


    WITH CAESAR II
    What the different with piping stress ?
    Pipeline burried modeling
    Anchor block restrain
    Load case combination & result

    The difference of piping & pipeline


    stress analysis
    Piping modeling
    Code requirement shall use
    ASME B31.3
    Aboveground
    Many support or restrain
    needed

    Pipeline modeling
    Code requirement use
    ASME B31.4 for liquid &
    B31.8 for gas transmission
    Usually Underground
    Shall use anchor block as a
    restrain from abovegroundunderground conversely

    Burried Pipe
    Buried pipe deforms laterally in areas
    immediately adjacent to changes in directions
    In areas far removed from bends and tees the
    deformation is primarily axial

    PIPELINE BURRIED MODELING


    The Buried Pipe Modeler is started by selecting an existing

    job, and then choosing menu option Input-Underground from


    the CAESAR II Main Menu
    Enter the soil data using Buried Pipe - Soil Models
    Describe the sections of the piping system that are buried,
    and define any required fine mesh areas using the buried
    element data spreadsheet
    Convert the original model into the buried model by the
    activation of option Buried Pipe - Convert Input

    Input soil models

    The buried element description spreadsheet serves


    several functions
    It allows the user to define which part of the piping system is
    buried.
    It allows the user to define mesh spacing at specific element
    ends.
    It allows the input of user defined soil stiffnesses

    Burried pipe example

    Anchor Block Restrain


    Pipeline with a long distance needs block
    valve, there were a change direction from
    underground to aboveground
    In this situation pipeline must be installed
    with anchor block before and after
    aboveground pipe

    Why we need anchor block ?


    To prevent stress failed on block valve due to
    axial deformation of a long pipeline

    Example of block valve modeling

    Anchor block

    Anchor block

    Load Case Combination


    To check stress analysis on pipeline shall use
    several load case combination as folow :

    Sustain Load ( W + P)
    Thermal Load (T)
    Combination Load ( W + T + P)
