b31gdep: ASME B31G. Design pressure of pipe

In pipenostics: Diagnostics, Reliability and Predictive Maintenance of Pipeline Systems

Description

Calculate the design pressure that according to ASME B31G-1991 is the conditioned construction characteristic that should not in no way exceeded.

Usage

b31gdep(d, wth, smys, def)

Arguments

d	nominal outside diameter of the pipe, [inch]. Type: assert_double.
wth	nominal wall thickness of the pipe, [inch]. Type: assert_double.
smys	specified minimum yield of stress (SMYS) as a characteristics of steel strength, [PSI]. Type: assert_double.
def	appropriate (combined) design factor from ASME B31.4, ASME B31.8, or ASME B31.11, []. Type: assert_double.

Value

Design pressure of the pipe, [PSI]. Type: assert_double.
