Stress indices and flexibility factors in thin elbows

  • 1. C.E.N. Cadarache, St-Paul-lez-Durance (France)

Description

Usually piping calculations are done with a beam model. Ovalization in elbows is taken into account by the mean of flexibility factors and stress indices. This paper compares results from a beam model calculation with results from a 3 D shell model calculation. (Codes TEDEL and TRICO from the CEA-SEMT System). The aim of this comparison is to study validity of the stress indices and flexibility factors used in the beam model for several kinds of loading
