CodeCalc consists of nineteen modules for the design and analysis of pressure vessels and heat exchangers, and assessment of fitness for service. The software provides the mechanical engineer with easy-to-use, technically sound, well-documented reports. The reports contain detailed calculations and supporting comments, which speed and simplify the task of vessel design, re-rating, or fitness for service. The popularity of CodeCalc is a reflection of Intergraph's expertise in programming and engineering, and dedication to service and quality.

Calculations in CodeCalc are based on the latest editions of national codes such as the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, or industry standards such as the Zick method of analysis for horizontal drums. CodeCalc offers exceptional ease of use, which results in dramatic

improvement in efficiency for both design and re-rating. CodeCalc features include:

 Extensive on-line help.

 Management of multiple analysis files so that you can define a whole pressure vessel in a single file.

 Defining your own unit system, including metric and SI units. Internally, however,

calculations continue to be in the English system of units, assuring continuing compliance with ASME Code requirements.

 Access to a complete material library including over 3,000 allowable stress versus temperature tables and 67 external pressure charts. You can also add materials to the database.

 Access to a component library containing diameter and wall thickness for all standard pipe sizes, pressure vs. temperature charts for ANSI B16.5 flanges, and section properties for AISC beam sections.

 A summary capability allowing evaluation of all the components of a pressure vessel or heat exchanger. Design pressure, temperature, material, and maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP) are shown for each component.

 Thorough and complete printed analysis reports, with definable headings on each page. Comments and other additions may be inserted at any point in the output. Analysis is saved to a drive and can be exported to a text or Microsoft Word file format, making it easy to keep records and do revisions.

 High-quality documentation with complete operating instructions, a tutorial, and many example problems, making CodeCalc suitable for both beginners and experts.

 Scaled and dimensioned plots for each component in every module. The graphics can be sent directly to the printer.

 Interactive calculations, allowing quick design optimization without leaving the input screen.  Extensive examples covering most of the ASME Section VIII Div.1 code examples, along

with some published examples.

 Merge and import features, allowing faster and error-free ways to share data between different CodeCalc modules or from PV Elite.

 An auto-save feature, allowing files to be saved at specified time intervals.

What Distinguishes CodeCalc From our Competitors?

Our staff of experienced pressure vessel engineers are involved in day-to-day software development, software support, and training. This approach has produced software which closely fits today's requirements of the pressure vessel industry. Data entry is simple and straightforward through annotated input fields. Most of these fields are accompanied by an informative help file. CodeCalc provides the widest range of modeling and analysis capabilities without becoming too complicated for simple system analysis. You can tailor CodeCalc through default settings and customized databases. Comprehensive input graphics confirm model construction before analysis is made. The software's interactive output processor presents results on the monitor for quick review or sends complete reports to a file, printer or Microsoft Word document. CodeCalc is an up-to-date package that not only uses standard analysis guidelines, but also provides the latest recognized opinions for these analyses.

CodeCalc is a field-proven engineering analysis program. It is a widely recognized product with a large customer base and has an excellent support and development record.

What Analysis Types are Available?

The following analysis modules are available in CodeCalc:

Shells & Heads

Performs internal and external pressure design of vessels and exchangers using the ASME Code, Section VIII, Division 1 rules. Components include cylinders, conical sections, elliptical heads, torispherical heads, flat heads, spherical shells, and spherical heads. This module calculates required thickness and maximum allowable internal pressure for the given

component. It also calculates the minimum design metal temperature according to UCS-66, and evaluates stiffening rings for external pressure design.

Jackets covering the shell can also be analyzed. These jackets are addressed in Appendix 9 of the ASME Sec. VIII Div. 1.

The module implements API-579 Fitness For Service evaluations (FFS) Sec. 4, Local Thinning, Sec. 5, General Metal Loss and Sec. 6 Pitting Corrosion.

For more information, see Shells and Heads (on page 49).

Nozzles

Calculates required wall thickness and reinforcement under internal pressure for nozzles in shells and heads, using the ASME Code, Section VIII, Division 1 rules, including tables of outside diameter and wall thickness for all nominal pipe diameters and schedules. The module checks weld sizes, calculates the strength of reinforcement, and evaluates failure paths for the nozzle. Hillside, tangential and Y-angle nozzles can also be evaluated.

Reviewing the Results - The Output Option

You can quickly review the results of this analysis using the Output option. On the Home tab, click Review Result. If you have analyzed the components from the input, CodeCalc

automatically displays the output for you. You see the following dialog box:

There are three analyses in the output file. If you perform additional analysis runs, or analyze other components, such as nozzles, flanges, and tubesheets, the additional analyses also display. This allows you to review (and print) all of the calculations that you have done for a given vessel or job at one time. The individual report can be viewed by selecting one of the items in the report area.

You can scroll up and down in the text to see all input data and results. The Summary of Internal Pressure Results shows that the required thickness is less than the actual thickness for this job, while the maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP) is greater than the design pressure. Therefore, the shell thickness you selected is acceptable.

You can select more than one analysis at a time by holding down the CTRL key while selecting the items to view. You can select all reports by clicking Edit > Select All. When viewing the reports, click Next Report to move to the next component.

29 Configuration Dialog Box

Sets options for software parameters.

Computation Control Tab (Configuration Dialog Box) (on page 29) Miscellaneous Tab (Configuration Dialog Box) (on page 30)

Computation Control Tab (Configuration Dialog Box)

Sets options for computation methods used in the software.

Compute Increased Nozzle Thickness? - Specifies that the minimum nozzle thickness (trn) will be the maximum of:

 trn = (.134, trn for internal pressure) less than or equal NPS 18  trn = (OD/150, trn for internal pressure) greater than NPS 18

This option is useful when nozzle loadings are unknown, such as when a pressure vessel is designed and built long before the attached piping system. By using this option in addition to UG-45, you have some additional metal available to satisfy thermal bending stresses. This option is not selected by default.

 These formulae are not in the ASME Code, but are commonly used in industry.

 You can also specify the minimum wall thickness of the nozzle, Trn, using Nozzles . The minimum wall thickness value then overrides the value calculated by this option.

Calculate F in Flohead if the Pressure is Zero? - Specifies that the factor F is calculated in the design of a floating head. F is a direct function of the internal pressure. If the internal pressure is 0, then F is equal to 0, such as in the flange bolt up case where there is no internal pressure when bolting up the unit.

The code can be interpreted to mean that F should always be calculated. This option is conservative and is not selected by default.

Use P instead of MAWP for UG-99B? - Specifies that P is used instead of maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP) when calculating hydrostatic test pressure on vessels according to code paragraph UG-99(b). The equation would normally be:

Test Pressure = 1.5 * MAWP * Stest/Sdesign (for A-98 Addenda) or

Test Pressure = 1.3 * MAWP * Stest/Sdesign (for post 2001 edition of ASME VIII Division 1) The code, in note 32, states that the MAWP can be assumed to be the same as the design pressure when calculations are not made to determine the MAWP. This allows for lower test pressures. This option is not selected by default and should be used with caution.

Print Water Volume in Gallons/Liters? - For US units, specifies volume in US gallons instead of cubic diameter units (such as cubic feet). For other units, specifies volume in liters instead of cubic diameter units (such as cubic mm). This option is not selected by default.

A US gallon (3.7854 liters) is smaller than an Imperial gallon (4.5461 liters) as defined in Europe. The software considers only the US gallon.

Use Calculated Value of M for Torispherical Heads in UG-45 b1? - Specifies calculation of the required head thickness at the location of the nozzle by the rules of paragraph UG-32 or by the rules in Appendix 1, according to code interpretation VIII-1-95-13. This option is selected by default and should always be selected.

The code in paragraph UG-45 requires a calculation of the required head thickness at the location of the nozzle. This sometimes leads to the incorrect assumption that the thickness may

(30)

30 CodeCalc User's Guide

be calculated according to paragraph UG-37. However the code interpretation, VIII-1-95-133, issued December 1996, states:

Question: Does the definition of the required thickness tr for a formed head given in the

nomenclature of UG-37(a) in section VIII, Division 1 apply when determining the minimum nozzle neck thickness in UG-45(b)(1)?

Reply: No, see UG-32.

Use Pre-99 Addenda? - Specifies the use of the material database preceding the 1999 Addendum. This is only relevant to Division 1 of ASME VIII. This option is selected by default. In the 1999 addendum to ASME Section VIII, Division 1, the allowable design stresses (S) were increased. It is recognized that it may be necessary to re-rate vessels constructed before this addendum came into effect.

Use Code Case 2260? (for elliptical and torispherical heads) - Specifies the use of modified equations in the Code Case 2260, May 20, 1998, to calculate the required thickness of elliptical and torispherical heads. A thinner head is typically designed. Code Case 2260, Alternate Design

Rules for Ellipsoidal and Torispherical Formed Heads, applies to Section VIII Division 1. This

option is not selected by default.

Do not apply Bolt Spacing factor for flanges, tubesheets, and floating heads? - For the design of heat exchanger flanges and tubesheets, ASME and TEMA (like Taylor-Forge) provide a correction factor when the actual bolt spacing (circumferentially) exceeds the allowable bolt spacing. The correction factor is then multiplied by the moment to design a thicker flange. The use of this term is very standard in industry and is used in other pressure vessel design Codes such as PD-5500 and EN-13445.

ASME Secion VIII introduced the bolt space correction factor in the 2010 edition. This factor will be used in the design. The ASME code also states that for computing the rigidity index, flange moments without this correction factor should be used. If you do not want to use the factor, then check this box. This factor tries to accounts for any possible opening of the flange faces in the area between any two bolts. The default is to use the bolt space correction factor.

Material Database Year - Specifies the year of the material database. Each material year contains a complete database listing of materials, allowable design stresses, and other relevant properties. Select Current or an earlier year.

If a different material database is selected after creating a set of components, update the component materials by re-selecting them from the material database before performing calculations.

Miscellaneous Tab (Configuration Dialog Box)

Sets miscellaneous options used in the software.

Report Content - Specifies the amount of detail and the length of printed reports. Select Summary to print a short report. Select Detailed to print a normal report that includes formulas and substitutions.

External Pressure Printout in Rows? - Specifies the style for printing external pressure results rows and columns in reports. Select to print the values in rows to reduce report length. Clear to print the values in columns. This option is selected by default.

Reload last file at startup? - Specifies loading the last file opened the next time the software is started.

Syntax Highlighting In Output Reports - Specifies color-coding of results in reports. Select this option to print warnings in red or blue type, and errors or fatal problems in red type. This option is selected by default.

(31)

CodeCalc User's Guide

31

When syntax highlighting is used, output generation on-screen and to a Microsoft Word file is slightly slower.

Do not Print Extended ASCII Characters in Output Reports - Specifies printing of extended ASCII characters in reports. Extended ASCII characters such as superscript 2 are not displayed properly on some localized versions of Windows, such as Chinese, Korean, and Japanese. If you are having difficulty with extended ASCII characters, select this option. When selected, the software uses ASCII characters.

Default Units File - Specifies the .fil units file to use when creating a new CodeCalc file. Select a units file to use for both data input and calculated results.

This option is not used to change the units of the currently opened CodeCalc file. In this case, use Set Units. For more information, see Tools Tab (on page 28).

Graphics Display Driver - Specifies the driver used for generating component and model graphic images on the screen. Open GL is the default value. If your computer does not display images correctly, select MSW, the Microsoft Windows driver.

Nozzle Pro Installation Folder - Specifies the location of Nozzle Pro software, used to perform finite element analysis (FEA) of nozzles. FEA is more accurate and detailed than local load procedures such as WRC107, WRC297, and PD 5500 Annex G. Nozzle Pro is

separately-purchased software from Paulin Research Group http://www.paulin.com. Default File Save Folder - Specifies the default location for saving input files.

Enable Auto Save - Specifies automatically saving the input file. Select this option and enter the time interval between saves.

Perform Background Saves (Silent)? - Specifies silently saving the input file. This option is available when Enable Auto Save is selected. Select to auto save without software prompts. Clear to get software prompts after the time interval specified for Enable Auto Save.

Material Database Editor

The Material Database Editor utility allows you to add custom materials to a delivered ASME, PD:5500, or EN-13445 material database for use with PV Elite or CodeCalc. For a YouTube demonstration, visit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEtIRO4PwCw. While the video is centered around PV Elite, it works much the same way in CodeCalc.

The utility is available from:  _{Tools > Edit/Add Materials}

 MatEdit.exe, found in the [Product Folder]\COADE\PVElite\ folder

When you use this utility, material database files with the .bin extension are created in the

[Product Folder]\COADE\PVElite\System Backup folder. These files contain only the custom

materials you have added. The custom materials can then be merged into the main material databases.

 The delivered databases contain allowed material for the current codes. You typically only add custom material if you are required to use an outdated material, or need to add material from a different code.

 Have the appropriate code available when adding new material. You will enter code-based material properties such as Chart Data, Material Band, and S Factor. The properties needed vary with the database that you are editing.

Elastic Modulus Reference #

The elastic modulus reference number is a value that points to or corresponds to a set of data set forth in ASME Section II Part D, tables TM-1, 2 and so on. Unfortunately, many materials have a composition or UNS number that does not match the criteria of what is supplied in the ASME Code. In these cases, the reference number will be brought in as zero. If this happens, you will need to enter in an appropriate value.
