Pipe stress calculation

For the production expansion of a potato processing plant, a pipe stress calculation of a new steam line starting from the steam collector to the potato peeler was performed.

Pipe Stress Calculation for a Potato Processing Plant

For the expansion of the production capacity of a potato processing plant, we performed a pipe stress calculation for a new steam pipe. This pipe runs from the steam collector to the potato peeler.

The installer’s pipe design was calculated through to identify all forces and moments at the anchor and connection points. This ensures the structural integrity and durability of the installation.

Steam pipe design criteria:

  • Material type: P265 GH
  • Pipe section: DN150
  • Design pressure: 22 Barg
  • Design temperature: 220 °C
  • Corrosion allowance: 1 mm
  • Standardization: Design according to EN-13480

This calculation ensures that the steam pipe meets technical and safety standards, contributing to reliable and efficient production expansion.
