Stress indices and flexibility factors in thin elbows

  • 1. CEA/DRNR/STRS, CEN CADARACHE, St. Paul lez Durance (France)

Description

Usually piping calculations are done with a beam model. Ovalisation in elbows is taken into account by the means 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 the validity of the stress indices and flexibility factors used in the beam model for several kinds of loading
